Aria’s “Celtic Harp” is our first traditional, folk sounding instrument, outside the realms of standard classical music. This VST instrument was created with a harp recorded in a very warm and soft sounding room, for a much more intimite and pleasing sound. A few years ago, Versilian Studios released Etherealwinds Harp. This free harp VST became so popular that Versilian has now published version 2, which updates both interface and sound.

Featuring concert flute, clarinet, bassoon, F horn, trumpet, tenor bone, bass bone, tubular bells, xylophone, glockenspiel, timpani, large percussion section, harp, piano, solo violin, and violin section, all using accurate ranges. When Etherealwinds told us he was willing to make a sequel to the now-classic Etherealwinds Harp freeware library, we were all too happy to oblige. Recorded completely from the ground up in an eight-hour session, we've assembled quite possibly the most complete lever harp library in existence, Etherealwinds Harp II. Because we wanted to keep the spirit of the original freeware alive (and we.

Michaela’s Celtic Harp is a beautifully crafted sample library for Kontakt 4.2 and above. The full version features three microphone positions including direct input recordings, multiple velocity layers, damped and stopped string samples, and variable speed triplets.

Product Description

Michaela’s Celtic harp was created especially for those who love the delicate yet feisty spirit of Celtic music.

If you’re a professional composer or an enthusiastic hobbyist then the Professional edition of this wonderful library is going to be ideal for you. It features three microphone positions – direct input, stereo close, and stereo room – that offer lots of flexibility for mixing and blending the instrument within your template, something that you won’t find in similar libraries.

Articulations

The instrument includes normal plucked samples recorded at three dynamic levels. This is the default articulation and has that quintessential warm, resonant, sound that is unique to the Celtic harp. Animate vst plugin.

For occasions when it’s desirable to have a little less resonance we’ve not only provided a release time slider on the interface, we also recorded a separate set of damped string samples. To create these Michaela used her hands to damp the strings around the one being plucked. This provides a rounder sound that tails off a bit more quickly.

Playable stopped strings

Some pieces call for the player to stop one or more sounding strings with their hands. This has a unique sound as the vibrating string is brought to an almost instant stop. Michaela’s harp allows you to perform this technique live using a single key switch that stops any playing notes and triggers individual stopped samples for each one.

Speed controlled triplets

Playing quick groups of three notes is a common occurrence in Celtic harp music and is not easy to simulate with individual plucked samples. The triplet recordings in our library cover the mid-range of the instrument where this technique is most often used. They can be sped up or slowed down using a simple slider on the interface to allow them to fit the tempo of your music.

Lite edition

The Lite edition of this library is great if you’re looking for an instrument with a smaller resource footprint or all you need is one microphone position. It features the same range of articulations and you can upgrade to the Professional edition at any time.
