英文简介：

Welcome to the Soundiron Waterharp! We decided to sample this instrument deeply and creatively. This huge library contains 2,903 samples, with 59 different articulations and is divided into two main categories: Bowed & Mallets.

The articulations include a variety of bows, a huge set of different mallets, metal devices, hands and other contraptions. The library also contains a variety of more experimental patches, including boiled water at four different temperature levels, hydrophone recordings (underwater microphones in the waterharp), magnets on waterharp and filling waterharp with metal screws and other goodies. This sample library pretty much covers just about every thinkable and unthinkable way you’d want to use/abuse a waterharp. We can proudly state we sampled the living soul out of the waterharp. All playable mallet programs contain between 5-10 velocity layers – and 6-10 round robin variations for maximum playability. In addition waterharp contains a bonus set of waterharp ambiences, including a large collection of unique patches (Kontakt 3 only) made by Steven Tavaglione (Instrumentalist and Sound Designer; Wall-E, American Beauty, CSI, Supernatural and 100s other movies/shows/games).

Details

Our library is actually based on the capture of an instrument that is generally classified as a waterphone, which is essentially based on the original waterharp design invented by Richard Waters in the late 1960s, with minor physical shape and and tonal differences.

We’ve been deeply interested in this instrument for years and finally gave ourselves the excuse and opportunity to capture it as fully as we could. We spent many long hours recording, editing and programming this metal beast, but at the end of it all, we feel it has been completely worthwhile. As far as we know, this is currently the most extensive and playable waterharp sample library available anywhere in the world at any price.

We bowed it, slapped it, struck it with a wide range of mallets and tools, burned it, boiled it, rolled it, sing through it, recorded it with underwater microphones, filled it with metal nails and shake it and so forth.
