Virtual Acoustic has announced, VA2G Campionessa, a new type of accordion sample instrument. They say:
Now the sound depends on several factors and the reality of the tone is raised to a much higher level. The samples have been processed in detail and are now very mix friendly. In addition to the pure sounds of the accordion, there are all possible noises that the accordion creates when playing: Key on, key off, register and bellows noise. The tone can also be suppressed/bent with the help of aftertouch control, which in the real version of the accordion is obtained by insufficient pressure of the button. It is suitable for various genres of music. There is also the possibility of saving your own presets.
Soft, warm and wide sounds are the main features of this model. Four-voices accordion, two voices in the room (cassotto) and two outside. Standard Balkan tune. Guerrini Champion accordion (very different from the previous version) was used for sampling.
Price: $149. The product requires the full version of Kontakt 6.2.2+
