The Vienna Symphonic Library team has announced the release of Harp Glissandos, the sixth virtual instrument the Austrian company provides free of charge. Vienna's Free Instruments can be activated on an iLok key or on the user's computer without the requirement of a physical key.
This new free instrument provides a wide variety of harp glissandos, perfectly organized in the Synchron Player's patch structure, and its plentiful variations are easily accessible across the keyboard. The glissandos are available in all 12 major and minor scales, played upwards and downwards. What's more, users may choose between slow, medium and fast glissandos played over the full range of the instrument, or just in the low range, mid range or high range.
The harp was recorded in Vienna's second studio, the Silent Stage, which offers a tight, controlled ambience that lets users place these sounds in any acoustic environment they can imagine, either with the onboard convolution and algorithmic reverbs included in the Vienna Synchron Player, or with any external effects plug-ins. https://www.vsl.co.at/en/Free_Instruments/Harp_Glissandos Preconfigured mixer presets offer various reverb lengths and effects, from ethereal and retro characteristics to placements such as close, classic or distant. |
