Symphonic Choirs (original) (raw)
Symphonic Choirs is a vocal synthesizer and vocal library software created by EastWest, designed to imitate an entire vocal choir. The content was created by producers Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix with recording engineer Keith O. Johnson for EastWest. Recorded in a real concert hall, the software initially had two styles of producing a result, the first being the "PLAY" engine version and the second being the "WordBuilder". The WordBuilder works by the user typing in what they want the software to recreate and it playing back the words.

| dbo:abstract | Symphonic Choirs is a vocal synthesizer and vocal library software created by EastWest, designed to imitate an entire vocal choir. The content was created by producers Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix with recording engineer Keith O. Johnson for EastWest. Recorded in a real concert hall, the software initially had two styles of producing a result, the first being the "PLAY" engine version and the second being the "WordBuilder". The WordBuilder works by the user typing in what they want the software to recreate and it playing back the words. It has vocal samples for male, female and young boys' choirs. It covers the ranges Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass and has audio engine effects and outputs. The SATB sections offer Normal, Legato, Staccato, and Slurred articulations, while the young boys choir offers Normal and Legato articulations. It was recorded with 3 microphones, allowing for results that give the impression of the choir being in different positions. The software only contains choir-themed samples, so it is not designed to sing any other genre of music. Other samples include solo sounds in tones such as whispers covering Soprano, Alto and choir boy, though these samples do not use WordBuilder. The software also works with Kompakt, allowing for use of sound layers for user creation of choirs to suit the means; although the software can be used without Kompakt, the user will not be able to access the full capabilities of the sample library. In the PLAY version 2.1.1 update released in 2010, WordBuilder and PLAY were integrated into a single interface. The "Choirs (VOTA) Expansion" expansion pack was also later created using samples from Quantum Leap sound libraries. The samples contain heavy vibrato vowels that allow the loudest Symphonic Choirs to crossfade with the FFF Mark Wherry's "Voices of the Apocalypse". They were also built with the WordBuilder in mind. It also includes sample patches, "Angels" and "Demons" from "Voices of the Apocalypse". Unlike the original software, the expansion is recorded with a single microphone. (en) |
