Voices Of Rapture: Operatic Vocal Library for Kontakt

The core of the library is a set of chromatic articulations. True legato vowel sustains cover the Ah and Oo vowels for the ensemble, with extra options for some individual voices. Pure vowel sustains and staccatos cover Ah, Eh, Ee, Mm, Oh and Oo in softer piano and stronger forte dynamics.

Latin poly-syllabic sustains provide 12 liturgical Latin words and short chants with speed control and simulated legato. A further 23 Latin poly-staccatos use round-robin to cover a range of liturgical words. Whispers, breaths and other vocal effects are included for added realism.

The library also includes 425 atmospheric pads, ambiences, drones and textures hand-crafted from the raw vocal source, ranging from smooth to gritty.

The library contains more than 3,200 melodic and dynamic phrases in a range of categories, tempos and root keys. Pure vowel, French, Latin, whistled and hummed phrases are organized by voice, with hummed phrases for tenor and bass and whistled phrases for soprano, alto and bass. Phrase presets include real-time step-sequencing, tempo control and phrase editing.

The interface offers swell, attack, offset, release, legato, vibrato, auto-panning, phrase cross-fading and pitch shifting controls, along with CC and host automation support. Ensemble presets include a mixer with solo, mute, volume, pan and key range controls for each singer.

The built-in FX rack has 18 effect modules with customizable routing and chain saving, plus 119 convolution impulse responses in ten room and space categories.
