Bunker Samples have released Intimate Cello Iremia, available at the intro price of $59.00, increasing to $99.00 after the promotion. The offer ends September 20th.
If you’re looking for a cello library that can do everything…this is not for you, because this library is dedicated only to ultra quiet sustains, textures and swells. It is a deep exploration of the softest end of a solo cellos dynamic range. But why focus so much on ultra quiet playing?
In a noisy world, if you really want someone to listen to you – try whispering. It immediately draws the listeners attention in and creates intimacy and connection – and the same is true in music. But with the cello there’s even more to it than that: when you play really, really soft, it brings out intricate details and human imperfections in the sound even more, and these sounds greatly enhance the sense of intimacy and humanity. That’s why we dedicated a whole library to capture as many of these details as we could, to create a virtual cello that pulls you in and whispers you all its secrets.
You get three different dynamic intensities, from a whisper quiet ppp to a more robust p, each in three different flavours: un-muted, muted and the incredibly fragile and soft super-mute. Each has a different emotional intensity, so you can always find a sustain that suits your need.
Despite the focus on quiet sounds, Iremia is highly playable, designed to express your musical ideas with ease, thanks to extended controls of the dynamic response of the instrument.
The textures in Iremia are soft, but always living, breathing and moving, making them perfect for cinematic underscore. Some are frenetic while others are make-me-cry beautiful, and they are all performed in a rhythmically random, improvised manner, so the texture is never static.
Of course all the textures come in both con sordino and normale variations, and you even have the option of smoothly crossfading between the two, something that would be impossible to do in real life, but is highly expressive.
Features include:
- Align sample start – phase aligns all mic perspectives to the inside mic for a darker tone without the need for EQ.
- Extended simulated dynamics.
- Full control over the dynamic range – make the instrumnet react the way you want it to.
- Fully adjustable velocity control.
- Per mic stereo width and pan controls.
- Per mic Delay and Reverb sends.
- Route each mic directly to Kontakt’s discrete outputs, so you can process them individually in your DAW.
