Celemony Software GmbH presents the new 'Melodyne Sound Library' for
the multi-track versions of Melodyne, cre8 and studio.
The sounds of
the libraries are derived from Ueberschall's 'Liquid Instruments' and
are being offered specially to Melodyne owners at the end of April.
The series begins with 'Saxophone', 'Bass' and 'Guitar', with 'The
Voice 1 and 2' and 'Horn Section' to follow in early summer.
The collaboration between Celemony and the Hannover-based sample
manufacturer Ueberschall is entering the second round. First
Ueberschall licensed Melodyne technology for the 'Liquid Instruments';
now it's the other way around: the first-class Liquid Instrument
sounds are being offered exclusively for Melodyne.
The 'Melodyne Sound Library' is the ideal companion for all Melodyne
users who want to edit something more than their own material. The
licks and phrases were specially conceived for use with Melodyne
technology, produced by pros and meticulously optimized. They cover a
wide musical bandwidth and are flexible and adaptable as well as
offering outstanding expressive potential.
The 'Melodyne Sound Library' constitutes perfect raw material for
productions of all kinds that can be reshaped in an almost infinite
number of ways and adapted to the requirements of the situation –
without losing its musicality.
Through the unique Melodyne functions, the material adjusts
automatically in tempo, key and scale to the arrangement. Or you can
modify it in many different ways – from minor changes of intonation to
complete restructuring, from gentle quantization to time-stretching of
more than 100%. In this way, the phrases can be adapted simply and
easily to all possible demands and employed creatively. Working with
audio could not be more flexible or simpler.
With Melodyne's Melody Manager, the Library is very simple and
intuitive to use. the user can insert entire recordings, parts thereof
or merely individual notes into his arrangements very elegantly using
Drag 'n' Drop.
To create each library, around thousand of phrases and licks of the
highest musical and technical quality have been recorded by renowned
studio musicians using the finest equipment. The samples have been
recorded without effects or dynamic processing to leave complete
freedom for the further editing process.
The first Melodyne Sound Libraries, 'Saxophone', 'Bass' and 'Guitar'
will probably be available at the end of April together with Melodyne
cre8/studio 3.1 and cost 139 euros (US$159) from music dealers and the
Celemony web shop. The libraries 'The Voice 1 and 2' and 'Horn
Section' will follow in early summer. More information is available
