If a picture is truly worth a thousand words, and you can think of the Felt Seiler in the same way, only in a musical context, instead – you can convey so many different emotions only with a few strokes of your hands.
The infamous felt piano sound in a new more organic and intimate iteration featuring additional sound layers for a production ready out of the box sound.
Shape unique sounds and express a spectrum of emotions with three sound design layers for alternate moods.
The Felt Seiler consists of a single patch with a stylish, easy-to-use interface.
The content of the library was recorded in the Sofia Session Studio B with a number of close microphones, later summed into one microphone position. Along with that, The Felt Seiler contains 3 more synth/sound design layers for you to choose from, which will help you shape a unique sound.
Strezov Sampling named those three layers based on the mood that feels closest to the way they sound – Warmth, Ache and Loneliness. For all 3 of those, you have the option to Purge (the ON/OFF button on top of the volume slider), Solo or Mute each of the layers.
In addition, you can adjust the volume and the stereo width, and designate different outputs for each microphone position if you need.
Strezov Sampling have also added a “reverse” option (the circular button depicting a reversed “play” symbol), which allows you to play any of the sound design layers backwards, adding even more options to create different music textures and colors.
In the centre of the GUI you will find the “Soft” and “Sustain” buttons. The “Sustain” button by default is linked to your piano’s sustain pedal, as you would expect and when pressed the sustain samples will be played.
However, by clicking on the button in the GUI you will allow for all available sustain samples to be played. They’ve also sampled the Felt Seiler with the Soft pedal pressed and that mode can be activated by clicking on the “Soft” button on the interface.
That sound is more quiet, even softer as the dampers in the piano are closer to the strings, there are less vibrations, which in turn results in that warmer, delicate piano sound.
Lastly, on the right of the interface there are few FX available to you (Filter, Compressor, EQ, Delay, Convolution Reverb), allowing you to modify the selected instrument even further and to create a unique sound in accordance with your own taste.
In order for any of the FX to be activated, you just have to click the “on-off” button of the selected FX. Modifying the parameters of the selected effect is easy – just tweak any of the parameters shown on the FX section.
Driven by their desire to create a new composer tool which could spark creativity out-of-the box, Strezov Sampling’s main focus was based on the sound and finding the proper way to capture the depth of this precise and beautiful instrument.
In order to do so, they sampled and recorded The Felt Seiler meticulously: all content is recorded chromatically, 4 dynamic layers and 5 round robins for each note, including a true sustain layer.
As with any other of Strezov Sampling’s libraries, you have the opportunity to reset the round-robins of any instrument using the RESET RR with the keyswitch located at C0.
