Soundiron have released Jazz Vibraphone, available at the intro price of $49.00, increasing to $69.00 after the promotion. The offer ends September 24th.
Soundiron’s Jazz Vibraphone gives you the most expressive and versatile virtual vibraphone library available, designed to capture the warmth, swing, and subtlety of a masterfully played instrument. We worked in close collaboration with Pearl USA, who provided hand-selected frames, custom bars and signature mallets. We recorded two different vibraphones in stunning detail: a 4-octave Adams Alpha with gold anodized bars, and a vintage Musser. This collection delivers the authentic sound and feel jazz vibraphonists demand – lush resonance, singing sustain, and the full range of tonal colors that make the vibes such a unique voice in jazz.
Whether you’re laying down a smoky ballad, comping behind a soloist, or driving a hard-swinging uptempo groove, this 53GB library provides the tools to shape your sound with complete flexibility. You’ll find a variety of mallet choices and microphone positions—hard and soft mallets, open and damped articulations, close and ribbon microphones, so you can dial in exactly the tone and movement your music calls for.
With up to 6 round robin and 9 velocity layers per note, we recorded each bar with precision. We placed our microphones close to the bars for maximum intimacy and presence, giving you the same clarity and nuance you’d hear standing right next to the instrument on stage. Intuitive controls for layering, shaping, and motor speed let you craft anything from a clean, straight-ahead jazz combo sound to lush modern textures that blur the line between tradition and innovation.
With both vibraphones, you can choose from open or damped notes, using close mics or ribbon mics. And of course, we’ve crafted 20 unique sound-designed elements to compliment our Jazz Vibraphone, ranging from warm and textured leads to undulating and evolving ethereal pads, as well as plenty of classic synthesized waveforms to add even more body, harmony and flavor to your sound. To cap it all off, we’ve also included a set of 20 creative sound-designed factory presets to take the sound farther and offer instant inspiration, so you can dive right in. Jazz Vibraphone is built for the full unlocked version of Kontakt 6.6 and later, as well as the free Decent Sampler engine. We’ve also included all of the basic presets for the open-source SFZ format, which is compatible with several different sampler and synth platforms available for Mac, PC and Linux.
