英文简介：
This is a light version of the Strezov Sampling Wotan Male Choir library. The library features a male choir comprising of ten tenors and ten basses (including basso profundos). It has 8 syllables, 8 polyphonic true legato patches along with whispers and shouts. The choir sounds very large and powerful and is great for a Lord of the Rings-style sound. The dynamics and tone cover a very wide range, which makes it useful for softer, mellow compositions as well more epic compositions. The legato sounds quite smooth and realistic. The library also features a "Syllabuilder Engine", which is quite easy to use and provides great results when making words and phrases with the included syllables. As it is recorded in the Sofia Session Studio, it blends well with the female counterpart of this library. Overall, a good, easy-to-use male choir library that's also very versatile.
Following changes were made to the library:
1. The "Hall" mic sample group was removed, as it didn't add too much value and can easil;y be replaced by a reverb. The included "Close" mic position provides detail and clarity, while the "Decca" mic position provides a good amount ambience and makes it sit in the mix well.
2. The samples in the original release were in 24-bit 48kHz format. The samples were converted to 16-bit 48kHz. And unlike the original library, the samples were then packed into NKX containers, which speeds up loading and file transfer times. A null test results in a peak of -85dB, which won't be audible at all. Also, after quite some testing, no issues were found with noise floor build-up when playing lots of notes. The conversion process takes the size down to 3.49GB from the original 10.15GB, which is a 66% reduction! 
The result of these changes is that patches now consume much less memory than the original. For example, the "Wotan_Men.nki" patch now takes up just 1.27GB of RAM instead of 3.19GB in the case of the original library!
NOTE: Kontakt v5.8.0 or higher is required. This is an Open format library, so it can be used in both legit as well as k'd Kontakt.
About Wotan
After spending three years exploring various methods to sample choirs Strezov Sampling finally brings to you the next generation of virtual choirs. Focusing on one of the most iconic choir timbres of the last decades in the history of film soundtracks - The Khazad-d?m male choir -
Wotan is the ultimate box of tools to evoke the sound of a long forgotten kingdom.
Comprised of ten tenors and ten basses (including basso profundos), all part of many choir recording sessions for artists like Two Steps from Hell, and recorded in the Sofia Session Studio Wotan is the perfect addition to the critically acclaimed Storm Choir range adding a whole
new layer of dimension and detail.
Syllabiulder Engine 3.5
When it comes to virtual choirs there are basically two approaches: Phrase-building (Storm Choir series) and Word-building (Rhodope series). Wotan combines the simplicity and sample recording of phrasebuilding with the advanced editing functions of wordbuilding. This allows you to have amazing sounding results within seconds, but also to build and create new sample content with only few mouse-clicks. Create complete choral patterns inside the GUI or connect different syllables and morph them to add motion to your choir arrangements. Save and Load complete lyric presets to quickly get yourself into the actual composition or enhance your setup with predefined quick words.
All samples have their natural attacks included. However if you want to tighten them up the Syllabuilder Engine allows you to set custom attack, release, volume and offset values for each field independently. Something completely new and greatly missed in all phrasebuilding
choir libraries.
Clusters/Effects and the Manual
Rather than seperating whispers and shouts Wotan includes them as part of the natural dynamic range. Playing with very low velocity on your midi keyboard will trigger whispers, while high velocity triggers shouts. Both effects recorded with multiple round robins, so you can really use them to create music. Of course the GUI allows you to completely customize the behaviour of this unique and intuitive concept.
A powerful next generation virtual male choir also should give the user the ability to use musical clusters with real recorded dynamics in them. Wotan features some of the most loved choir clusters ever used in music history. If you think of Ligeti you know what Wotan's clusters are all about.
Making our new choir engine as accessible as possible was the primary goal during its developement process. That's why Wotan has an integrated manual in the advanced options menu explaining every little feature in detail. Just click on the up/down arrows next to the
“ABOUT” section!
