Kora [ a west-african harp ] - Sonic Zest: Sample Libraries and Virtual Instruments for Kontakt
I spent January working with the renowned Kora player Josh Doughty, meticulously sampling his favourite West African harp in a London studio. This is the only dedicated deeply-sampled Kora sample library available.
The Kora is a 21-string West-African harp, that has been played for centuries in Mali. When played softly it sounds like a beautiful orchestral harp. When played hard it produces a slight twangy sound evoking images of West Africa and mildly reminiscent of a guzheng. The tremolo patches are a favourite and create a fantastic stereo swarm sound.
The Kontakt instrument comes with:
- 9 patches, including tremolo and glissando.
- 18 samples per note: 6x round robins and 3x velocity layers.
- 2 mic positions: pick-up and stereo close mics.
IT IS CURRENTLY ON OFFER THIS WEEK FOR JUST $99 (NORMALLY $130).
