From Our Research Team:Sampled Instruments from a Wide Variety of Music CulturesToo often, creating sample-player sound libraries becomes an exercise in sound design, and not a composer's tool. Programmers will give you all the features you could possibly ask for or imagine, but rarely do they organize them in a musically useful manner that takes the way you work into account. Quantum Leap RA's producer Nick Phoenx, is also a working composer, so along with QL's usual meticulous approach, Quantum Leap RA was created by someone who is capable of thinking beyond the immediate recorded sound into the way these sounds will work in a composition. So if you've become bored with typical acoustic instrument samples, or wish to add new vistas of sonic interest to your sequences, Quantum Leap RA may just be the answer to your musical prayers.Quantum Leap RA at a Glance:
So what's so special about Quantum Leap RA compared to other ethnic collections? For a start, every instrument or ensemble was sampled extensively, so the character of the instrument was preserved. Ethnic (or world) music is all about expression, and how the instrument is played. To sample a Turkish wind instrument and not capture the bending, swelling and wavering of the notes is to miss the point completely. On Quantum Leap RA, the producers made a major effort to keep things very organized, consistent, and intuitive, which is necessary with a collection of this size. Every instrument inQuantum Leap RA has many articulations and effects that range from very controlled to very expressive. This allows you to actually "play" the instrument with authentic results. The Quantum Leap RA team also came up with some innovative ideas for achieving realistic legato performances, called QLegato. Quantum Leap RA Instruments:
Quantum Leap RA Includes Kompakt sample player - no other sample required! Quantum Leap RA comes equipped with the Kompakt sample player so it's ready to play. Kompakt allows direct from disk playback, which easily handles large samples beyond available RAM (which is assignable). Professional sound quality is assured with advanced 32-bit processing. Build hypnotic new ensembles with theQuantum Leap RA instruments. The clean and intuitive Kompakt interface never lets the technology get in the way of your creativity. You might also be surprised at how little percussion is included in this giant ethnic collection. The reason is, Quantum Leap already covered much of this in Quantum Leap Stormdrum. [url=http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Stormdrum]Stormdrum[/url] is the ideal companion to RA. The percussion in RA compliments Stormdrum perfectly. You can have a lot of fun with RA. The possibilities are simply endless, especially when you mix the sounds of different cultures together. Load up the middle eastern string section, apply an Indian or Egyptian tuning from the micro-tuning presets and play octaves. Make a really cool groove with the didgeridoo fx and the Vietnamese jaw harp. Take a classical filmscore piece and replace all of the instruments with their ethnic counterparts: strings with middle eastern string section, solo violin or cello with electric baritone violin, hardanger fiddle or erhu, french horn with alpenhorn, flute with dizi, oboe with duduk, percussion with taikos and African percussion, harp with kora, trombones with rag dung etc. etc.... Or perhaps try the hurdy gurdy, hardanger fiddle, washburn guitar, mandolin and the dizi and make an interesting folk ensemble or the gamelan ensemble with the ney flute, duduk and esraj. And don’t forget the reverb! Quantum Leap RA Features:
Quantum Leap has applied their insanely meticulous methodology to bring you RA, a highly musical collection of instruments from a wide variety of music cultures from around the world.
