Tonehammer has shared this sonic preview of their upcoming choral library, Liberis.
Here's what they have to say about it:
LIBERIS is our next-generation choir library featuring a professional 45-piece multi-award winning children's choir lead by famous choir conductor, Bob Geary from VOLTI. The library represents the most detailed sampling ever done of a high-end children's choir and the most ambitious release in the history of Tonehammer.
LIBERIS allows you to create realistic sounding choir by using a variety of next-generation features, including true ensemble legato, true ensemble portamento, true solo legato and legato for our poly-sustained chants. In addition the contains sustains from piano to forte, staccato at different velocity layers and repetitions, marcato with sustains, BPM (host-synced) latin chants recorded at different speeds and a uncompromising effects section with thousands of effects ranging from basic consonant/vowels, clusters, sweeps, whispers, shouts, chirps, claps, snaps and some very disturbing children songs.
In addition the library is recorded in 24 bit / 44.1khz with 3 (5.1) microphone positions and contains 3 different solo singers (2 girls / 1 boy).
Pricing and Availability
Full information and pre-orders are expected to be available Monday, 20th of December 2010. Release date: 15th of January 2011.
