Re: Introducing Celestial - a sampled Celesta from Chocolate Audio
Thanks to you, Piet! For the sake of completeness: we just released an update to Celestial. We created a 'fork' to Celestial since there is one key with a little bit more bell to it. But some customers and testers found that a feature rather than a drawback. So we created a separate set of NKIs for ...

Re: Introducing Celestial - a sampled Celesta from Chocolate Audio
ok, listened: it's got more 'bell' to it... I remember we had a few problems in that range when sampling it (we had to work on the whole mechanics since these instruments are old and 'beaten'). And this one must have slipped through... I remember very well having to deal with E4. Will fix that. Than...

Re: Introducing Celestial - a sampled Celesta from Chocolate Audio
Simone, If it's not too much bother, could you perhaps see if you can do something about the note F4? It sounds quite different from all the other ones, particularly that tick-y attack which it has and that none of the others have. Here's an audio illustration . You'll hear immediately what I'm tal...

Re: Chocolate Audio / Glissando Harps
You're welcome! I will do my best to do a walkthrough with the new harp too... in the meantime tomorrow I will publish a new video (using that sound) better explaining all of the interactions you can have re: Glissandos and other artics.

Re: Chocolate Audio / Glissando Harps
My harp search is ongoing. I bought Angelic Harp and banged it not my template, but I never got on with it. Depending on the preset, it always either stuck out too much or vanished. I reluctantly returned my old EWQLSO harp to the template which still sounds more balanced to me. I don’t love the to...

Chocolate Audio has released O.D.D Grand http://www.chocolateaudio.com/products/oddgrand , our different take on the Grand Piano sound. We chose to sample the Yamaha C6 piano in Italy's Art&Music Studios with full detail (11 dynamic levels) but stop before the "ff" dynamic, in order to...

Re: Uproar RAW 8-String Baritone Guitar
I hardly ever used GP in my life. But doing such a huge sampling job (and in two different periods: 2007/2008 and 2012) has been awesome for us. This gives an idea of software development times: in 2012 they were already working on GP7 and planned for the extra sounds they wanted and hired us to do ...

makes sense. Never really used it myself, but I made, I think 100% of the samples that are in GP6 and GP7

Re: Uproar RAW 8-String Baritone Guitar
Hi,
the DI is clean, not from the amp, is from the guitar.
Of course there's no 10s in there, since we sampled only the first two octaves we barely reach the 2nd string (B)

Re: Uproar RAW 8-String Baritone Guitar
Right now I can't remember the set of strings we used but it was not an high tension wire size string
I am asking Gianluca to find out.
Yes the DI is there too.

Re: Uproar RAW 8-String Baritone Guitar
And thanks for the reply anyway... don't want to sound unpolite. I was just making our point regarding the production style. The stuff I do as an engineer is usually more on the acoustic side of things but I see the all of the beauty of this beast as it is. No-noise included
