Many libraries today promise natural legato intervals, only to provide a stilted delivery due to a simpler (and cheaper) recording method which requires two crossfades, in and out.
The Recorder eschews this practice and utilizes instead a vastly more time consuming method which eliminates the need for the second crossfade, giving a beautifully natural transition.
A more “traditional” set of legatos are provided for comparison and timbral clarity, using chromatic destination notes rather than the diatonic destinations sampled.
VISAGE exposes full control over every parameter of the legato behavior, allowing you to tune the legato exactly to taste, or you can pick between six pre-calibrated presets and get playing.
A specialized range of microphones were used to capture the recorders accurately and naturally, comprising five arrays in four positions.
Up close, a stereo ribbon microphone (Samar VL373A) provides detail, warmth, and texture, ideal for solo uses or when adding your own favorite reverb plugin. It can be collapsed to mono easily or fed through an external Mid-Side processor for control over the stereo image.
Next are two pairs of microphones in what is called a ‘Wide Faulkner Array’, with a wide pair of brighter omnis flanking a narrower set of darker directional mics. You can mix smoothly between the two to achieve a more direct or more spacious sound.
The Mid array is a pair of ultra low noise LDC’s, Microtech Gefell M940, provide a neutral, unhyped sound ideal for blending with most other libraries.
Finally a distant, NOS array of Rode TF5 SDC’s capture the acoustics of TRC Studio A, suitable for combining recorders with orchestral samples from scoring stages.
Our new VISAGE 3 engine allows you to work in a range of historical temperaments and intonations, from various flavors of Meantone to the rich key coloration of so-called “Well” temperaments, to even some varieties of near-Equal options.
A useful Transposition feature allows you to utilize A=415 instruments in modern A=440 production (and vice versa), providing many different timbral options to perfectly fit the context and range of your virtual production or composition.
Both versions of The Recorder have been licensed to work in the free Kontakt Player; you do not need to own or purchase Kontakt in order to use it.
Utilizing the ‘Libraries’ tab, navigating, loading, and auditioning patches is an easy and convenient process.
In addition, you can enjoy all of the conveniences of Kontakt, such as snapshots, easy controller integration, standalone functionality for live use, and integration with NI’s line of keyboards via NKS 1.0 integration.
The purchase of this library will also qualify you for the special Crossgrade pricing for Kontakt, significantly reducing the cost of ownership.
Any version of Kontakt OR Kontakt Player from 7.6.1 or higher will work with The Recorder.
Utilizing the new VISAGE engine to its fullest, both versions of The Recorder pack in a range of controls over every aspect of the instrument including but not limited to:
A full consort of Baroque A=440 recorders from ‘nino to contra, powered by the same VISAGE 3 Engine as the Complete Collection.
