Sound Dust releases "Cloud Cello" for Kontakt with 20% off intro offer

Sound Dust has released Cloud Cello for Kontakt with a 20% off intro offer until 26th June, 2015.

Cloud Cello is a new take on an old instrument using unlikely bowing materials and techniques to make entirely new sounds that go from huge 'superwave' pads to intimate and delicate solos.

Features:

• Two instrument variations - solo & ensemble versions.
• 2GB of 24-bit samples (uncompressed).
• Three octave keyrange - C1 to C4.
• Seven deeply sampled articulations through eight 'oscillators'.
• Accented bow: short bowed note with conventional bow. 5 x round robin per note. Two mic positions- valve condensor and contact mic.
• Col legno: Latin for 'gently thwacked with the back of the bow'. 5 x round robin per note. Two mic positions- valve condensor and contact mic.
• Twine: bowed with 5 meters of coarse garden string. 5 x round robin per note, minimum 20 seconds per sample. Two mic positions- valve condensor and contact mic. Hard-wired to CC11 for expression pedal or MIDI controllers.
• Dark Cloud: Twine recorded 100% wet reverbed through Strymon Big Sky hardware reverb. Playback through Kontakt grain oscillator.
• Pale Cloud: the Dark Cloud recorded 100% wet reverbed through Strymon Big Sky hardware reverb unit, so basically 200% wet.
• Sub Bass: (ensemble only) Moog Voyager sine bass.
• Effects per oscillator: tremolo, vibrato, saturation, pitch selection, pan, lowpass filter, high pass filter, reverb and delay.
• Master output effects: low pass filter, highpass filter, rotor effect, delay, cabinet modelling and EQ.
• Master unison control for up to eight voices per note.
• Velocity to volume amount control.
• Aftertouch to pitchbend amount control.
• Aftertouch to filter light/dark control.
• Advanced architecture with automatable MIDI control of everything on the interface.
• 74 specially created convolution reverb impulses recorded from real spaces, expensive hardware, and some less obvious sources including a Roland Space Echo, Strymon Big Sky and the stage of Glyndebourne Opera House.
• 50 themed instrument presets (.nki's) each with modwheel patch morphing for gazillions of variation.
• Built in instruction manual in RTFM tab.
