Versilian Studios Marimba KONTAKT WinX32-64Bit MacOSX/AU

The Marimba is a relative of the xylophone, distinct for its large, typically semi-tubular resonators found underneath the keys, and larger range than its smaller counterpart. Its history is complex, having early origins in Africa and Central America, but it found a prominent home in the halls of America�s Vaudeville at the start of the 20th Century.

The marimba is unique from many modern instruments in that its playing style is still evolving quite rapidly, with new applications and playing techniques coming forth every few years.

Versilian Studios Timpani KONTAKT WinX32-64Bit MacOSX/AU

The Timpani, also known as Kettle Drums, are a set of 3-5 large, bowl-shaped drums tuned to pitches that create a strong, resonant sound, perhaps best known from its bold appearance in Also Sprach Zarathustra.

Over six hours of raw recording went into this virtual instrument, originally yielding 1,300 samples.

We’ve paired it down to the best of those and balanced it out across velocities and notes to create a highly playable instrument with a broad dynamic range and an exceptionally punchy top velocity.

…….:::::: Key Information ::::::……
� Wholetone Sampling 4-6x RR, 5 Velocity Layers, Stereo
� Kontakt Version Features EQ And Convolution Reverb
� Very Broad Dynamic Range
� Ear Plugs Not Included

…….:::::: Requirements ::::::……
� Native Instruments Kontakt v4.2.4 or higher.

Versilian Studios Hand Chimes KONTAKT WinX32-64Bit MacOSX/AU

Hand Chimes are a strange quirk of musical evolution. Created as a cheaper and more durable alternative to hand bells, these giant mutant ninja tuning forks have a mellow sound that is best described as a cross between a xylophone, a music box, and a celesta.

These sound excellent in all sorts of textures, but as we found out, they’re really great with arpeggios (listen to the demos down to the right).

You can also get great effects by pushing the attack back.

Use them as an alternative to celesta when you get tired of that sound, or almost like mallet percussion.

…….:::::: Key Information ::::::……
� 2x RR, One Velocity Layer (In Truth, The Instrument Is Not Really Capable Of Multiple Timbres Across Dynamics)
� Three Octaves Of Chromatic Sampling
� Straightforward New UI Design
� New Kontakt Edition!

…….:::::: Requirements ::::::……
� Native Instruments Kontakt v4.2.4 or higher.

Versilian Studios Dan Tranh Vietnamese Zither KONTAKT WinX32-64Bit MacOSX/AU

The Dan Tranh is a traditional zither originating from Vietnam. It is considerably longer than its European and American cousins, and is also Tuned as a Pentatonic Instrument. 16-17 metal strings run the length of the instrument with bridges halfway for each string.

In traditional performance on this instrument, one hand plucks the strings on one side of these bridges using plectrums (finger-picks) and the other hand bends the pitches of the notes as desired on the other side of the bridges.

This allows an incredibly dynamic and unique performance which is very hard to sample and replicate.

…….:::::: Key Information ::::::……
� c. 3 octaves of pentatonic (B) and chromatic range, including 4 velocity layers and at least 2xRR on each note.
� “Pentatonic Assist” – If you press a key not in the pentatonic scale when a pentatonic patch is loaded, it will play the closest previous note meaning you can use all white keys if you desire.
� Effects, Muted Plucks (2 Vel. Layers, 2xRR), Sampled RR Tremolo and Vibrato, Full Glissandi (4 speed, 3 VL, 2xRR)

…….:::::: Requirements ::::::……
� Native Instruments Kontakt v5.4.3.307 or higher.

Versilian Studios Glockenspiel KONTAKT WinX32-64Bit MacOSX/AU

The ear-ringing (not bell-ringing) descendant of the carillon is the not-very-intimidating-looking Glockenspiel. However, one must beware its ability to surpass even the piccolo in pain due to high notes.

Our glock is slightly more on the mellow side, but, recorded up close, provides a great rich fill of the harmonics, not to mention a lovely quiet end for those cute songs about winter and snow fall when a celeste just won’t do.

Unlike most sampled glocks, you get to hear the full natural impact of the mallet and get a full range of dynamics. If you don’t like the impact, just add a high-pass filter, we won’t mind.

…….:::::: Key Information ::::::……
� Chromatic sampling; 4x RR On Velocity Layers 1 And 2, X2 On VL 3 (Loudest)
� Sampled Up-Close For Detail
� Ear Plugs Not Included

…….:::::: Requirements ::::::……
� Native Instruments Kontakt v5.1 or higher.

Versilian Studios Harpsichord KONTAKT WinX32-64Bit MacOSX/AU-

Harpsichords are a form of keyboard instrument with a history as far back as the Renaissance, predating the modern piano by several hundred years.

The only problem with the design of the harpsichord was that it lacks the ability to create dynamics naturally. Instead, different stops must be used to achieve different timbres and volumes, like on organs.

This particular harpsichord is a hand-built modern replica based on designs from the Baroque period and features two different stops.

…….:::::: Key Information ::::::……
� Diatonically Sampled, 4xRR
� Adjusted To Be Equal-Tempered, A440, To Be Compatible With Modern Ensembles
� Includes Two Stops
� Full Decays Sampled
� Includes “Plus” Kontakt Edition With Added Capabilities

…….:::::: Requirements ::::::……
� Native Instruments Kontakt v5.4.3.307 or higher.
