Blanketfort Audio has released Harmonicorde, a sample based instrument.
Harmonicorde was crafted by sampling an acoustic guitar, capturing both its sustain and harmonics. These samples were then layered with sounds from a children's toy and processed through my trusty Technics cassette deck.
The result is an instrument that lies somewhere between a guitar, a harpsichord, a celeste, and an organ, yet it is distinctly none of these. These initial samples became the 'direct' sample sets.
To create the illusion of a 'real' instrument, these samples were reamped back into my empty studio to produce the 'room' sample sets, adding natural spatial depth to the sound.
For additional texture, the samples were recorded and redubbed using my reliable Sony Walkman, creating the familiar 'Half-Speed' set, similar to Melloharp (Dstry) and SR Drums (HSW).
Harmonicorde is $29 USD with a 30% off intro offer using the code hcorde30off at checkout, until the 16th of June, 2024.
