Description : Captivating vocal perspectives
Introducing Aria: Vocalscapes , where ambient, cinematic and experimental vocals come together into an inspiring and easy-to-use tool for adding beautiful vocal textures, ambience or pads to your music.
Featuring the soprano voice of classical singer Emma May Price, you can effortlessly evoke a range of emotions through soundscapes filled with mesmerizing tension, awe and anticipation, or ethereal melodies that enchant with their beauty and grace.
All-new engine
At the heart of Aria: Vocalscapes is the all-new Aria Engine for Kontakt Player, full of modulation capabilities and expressive effects, as well as ways to process your own samples.
Start by browsing a variety of articulations, from traditional “Aah” and “Mmh” to heavily processed vocals, select one for each of the two available slots, and create ever-changing vocal soundscapes using the intuitive built-in XY pad.
Take it further by applying layering or crossfading articulations, adding two independent filters and assigning any parameter to control the X and Y axes: the only limit is your creativity.
Make it move…
Despite the elegant and simple interface, the creative possibilities don’t end there! Aria: Vocalscapes offers additional depth with step sequencers for filters and low-frequency swings for each layer, allowing you to create rhythmic movement and modulation in your compositions.
Experiment with Effects
Improve your sound quality with three effect slots and an impressive FX panel, customizable to suit the effect you choose. Experiment with different combinations and easily customize your sounds.
Import your own sounds
Capture your unique artistic expression by recording your own XY movements, saving them as presets and adjusting playback speed. What’s more, you can even import your own samples for limitless creativity!
New in version 1.1 (2024-05) :
• Improved custom sample import process, with automatic sample pitch detection and a new option to allow you to loop or parse a custom sample
• When activated, the motion controller now only works when the note is actually played
• New layered low-frequency swings available for modulation panning
• 20 new snapshots
• All non-pitched articulations are now monophonic to avoid phasing issues that can sometimes occur when playing chords with these articulations
• Minor bug fixes and GUI improvements
Note : New features mean that projects saved with previous versions of the engine may sound slightly different when opened after the update. For this reason, we recommend that users complete their project before upgrading or render audio for the relevant parts.
