Product Description

Cinematic Shakuhachi Flute The Shakuhachi Flute was originally introduced from China into Japan in the 8th century and underwent a resurgence in the early Edo Period. The shakuhachi is traditionally made of bamboo
• but versions now exist in ABS and hardwoods. It was used by the monks of the Fuke school of Zen Buddhism in the practice of suizen. It was also a favorite of film composer James Horner and used on countless of his film scores. 17 Kontakt Patches and a bonus Taiko drum patch! Taiko Drum Patch They even included a multisampled Taiko patch which serves as a nice bonus to tie everything together. Ethinc Accent Let it be known that this library is NOT full of loads of legato articulations
• but sets out to be more of an ethnic accent for your game and film scores.   This library was recorded by utilizing a couple of the most amazing Shakuhachi players Loot Audio could find
• Jon Johnston and Jonathan McCollum.   The end result from "the two jons" is a Kontakt instrument which will add cinematic ethno flare to just about any track.  Phrases + Multisamples Stealth Wind sets out to capture that "James Horner" cinematic shakuhachi vibe through the use of carefully selected / recorded phrases (both ethnic and cinematic) along with some craftily sampled multisampled staccatos and sustains.   While the main vibe of the sound is centered around stealth and sneaking ninjas
• there are also quite a few ethnic phrases and motifs which are on the lighter and more traditional side of things.   Outside of the two separate cinematic phrase patches and two ethnic patches
• there are also various staccato patches
• a handful of low "Elephant Calls" which definitely ooze cinematic goodness
• and "Enigma Calls" which
• as the name suggests
• stem from various re-recordings and takes of a certain Shakuhachi sample used extensively by the artist Enigma.    System Requirements Full Kontakt 5.5.1 and above Important Note: Full version of NI Kontakt 5.5.1 and above is required.
