Lady Anna Voice

I have both this VSTi, and the sampleset for Lady Anna Voice.

I have rated the VSTi as a 7 because I really love and enjoy the samples, but I am not in love with the instrument.

The samples are fun and I can see many uses for them, both by themselves and as textures and loop fodder.

They won't appeal to everybody, but if you like Left-Of-Centre they might be right up our alley.

There are moans, groans, random vocalese, clicks and slurps. Great stuff !.

The instrument plays these sounds, in four different banks, and offers semitone and cent pitch adjustment per bank which might be useful to help some of the unpitched samples, of which there are many. The pitch shifting on offer is +/- 48 semitones (!) but is achieved by altering the replay speed, so length varies with pitch. This is one reason why I prefer the samples loaded into another sampler, rather than use the VSTi. Another reason is that the samples are anonymously named and seem to be randomly distributed among the 4 banks so it is tricky to find what you are after.

Having said that, there is a free trial version with only 20 sounds.If the instrument works for you then great. If not, buy the samples instead. The 20 free samples are pretty representative of the full set which of course features many more variations.

I had a small sales related query and Dmitry was exceptionally helpful and very quick to respond, so customer service looks better than good.
