'KWAYA: African Voices' is a Kontakt Choir expansion offering authentic African voices and chants. With the Aba Taano Choir from Uganda, Eduardo Tarilonte found the perfect choir to produce and record this intensely-prepared project. Includes NKS support for Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol controller-keyboards.
The awarded Aba Taano choir consists of four male and two female vocalists which have been recorded separately for this library in Kontakt 5 Player format, allowing you to create individual vocal-ensembles to your specific needs. Being able to freely set the level and pan-positions for each voice, you are given full control over the sound of the choir, resulting in the highest possible versatility.
40 different syllables have been recorded for each singer. These can be switched exactly in time by using keyswitches. By using five 'True Legato Vowels' (A, E, I, O, U), these syllables can be combined in a most natural way. In addition, there is an extra 'mm' articulation being unmistakably typical for East and Central-African chants.
All syllables can be played as solo voices or within an ensemble. Here, you may chose between short and longer articulations for the syllables. For the short syllables in particular, the speed of each individual syllable can be fine-adjusted in the phrase arranger.
Although 'KWAYA' is founded upon over 10,000 samples and 7 GB of data (lossless compressed to 5 GB), it is really straight-forward and easy to use. The library offers a set of 20 different phrases which eight syllables each. These can be changed using the keyswitch function and edited in the phrase arranger. Here, you can chose between 40 different syllables, five vowels and the 'mm' articulation. After having selected the syllables, you just need to decide between short and long articulations.
Includes NKS support for Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol controller-keyboards.
