Hi,I`m new here. I sent message to Orange Tree Samples 2 times and 3rd on facebook private message, getting no answer for 3 days. :(

I`m interested to know does this library having stops options 2/4/8/tutti or just last one?
Also does it contain key noise,since such a thing is crucial for realism of harpsichord?

Kind regards,
Dado.

Hi Dado,

I replied to your Facebook message--not sure if you got that or not.

Angelic Keys is a Virginal harpsichord, so it doesn't have stops--each key plucks a single string. That's what gives it a quieter, pure sound.

Any key noise included would be what was naturally picked up by the microphones. The instrument was sampled manually, so you're getting "real" key noise, as opposed to a solenoid based system of triggering the keys.

Since the release sounds are pretty audible on the instrument, we included both a volume control for the releases as well as a "tightness" control that lets you make the release samples decay faster.

Kind regards,

Greg
