We recorded in a dry studio environment using high dynamic range, Neumann large diaphragm mics and preamps to get the most detail, clarity and quality.
Voices Of Gaia includes chromatic true legato, sustain and staccato to select common vowels. It also comes with thousands of beautiful dynamic live performance phrases in various pitches and tempos, with real-time sequencing, tempo control, start/end editing, category and key selection, and more.
