8Dio The New Forgotten Voices Cait KONTAKT | 714 MB
来自爱尔兰的Cait McWhir从印度，巴尔干，中东和凯尔特人的声乐风格中汲取了近20年的探索灵感。她具有令人难以置信的多功能性，使她能够在传统的民间传说与古老的梵文颂歌，吠陀咒语之间自由交叉，以及用自制语言自由即兴创作。
New Cait由超过一千种不同的声乐短语构成，涵盖超过15小时的录音材料。这些短语分为多种类别，从古代梵语圣歌中的一些最古老的歌曲到自由的即兴短语。图书馆有特定的补丁，如巴尔干，摇篮曲，梵文颂歌，女巫颂歌等。此外，图书馆中的一些短语被记录2-3次，这通过将相同的短语分层两次或三次来允许更广泛类型的声音。
编程允许您通过调整模轮和弯音机来雕刻和变形短语。模数轮控制样本起始点，因此用户可以在短语中的任何地方触发偏移。弯音机允许您对短语进行时间拉伸/压缩。特殊键切换还允许您调整补丁中所有短语的根音高达+/- 3个半音。样本偏移控制，根音调控制和时间拉伸/压缩之间的组合允许用户将不同的短语无缝地变形在一起，这为创建新短语带来了无限的可能性。
此外，Cait还包含由Steven Tavaglione（乐器演奏家和声音设计师，Wall-E，American Beauty，CSI，Supernatural和其他100多部电影/表演/游戏）制作的40多种独特声乐氛围。所有的氛围都是由Cait源材料制成的，因此它们与她的声音无缝融合，对即时评分来说非常棒。注意：所有演示（见下文）均使用一个人声氛围和一组人声来播放。演示，所以他们花了3-5分钟撰写。所以你听到的就是你得到的。
更新：Cait McWhir也出现在格莱美获奖双张专辑中：作曲家Christopher Tin的“Calling All Dawns”。 Chris通过8DIO Forgotten Voices库发现了Cait。
原文
Cait McWhir, originally hailing from Ireland, draws her inspiration from almost 20 years of exploration with Indian, Balkan, Middle-Eastern & Celtic vocal styles. She has an incredible versatility allowing her to freely cross between conventional folklore to ancient Sanskrit chants, Vedic mantras to free improvisation in self-made languages.
The New Cait is constructed from over a thousand different vocal phrases covering over 15 hours of recorded material. The phrases are divided into a variety of categories varying from some of the oldest songs known to man from the ancient Sanskrit chants to free improvisational phrases. The library has specific patches such as Balkan, Lullaby, Sanskrit Chants, Witch Chants and so forth. In addition, some phrases in the library were recorded 2-3 times, which allows for a more broad type of vocal sound by layering the same phrase two or three times.
The programming allows you to sculpt- and morph phrases by adjusting the mod-wheel and pitch bender. The mod-wheel controls the sample starting point, so users can trigger off-set anywhere they want in the phrases. The pitch bender allows you to time-stretch/compress the phrase. Special key-switching also allows you to adjust to root pitch of all phrases in a patch by up to +/- 3 semitones. The combination between sample off-set control, root pitch control and time-stretch/compression allows users to seamlessly morph different phrases together, which brings endless possibilities for creating new phrases.
In addition, Cait contains a bonus set of over 40 unique vocal ambiences made by Steven Tavaglione (Instrumentalist and Sound Designer; Wall-E, American Beauty, CSI, Supernatural and 100s other movies/shows/games). All the ambiences are made from Cait source material, so they seamlessly blend with her voice and are amazing for instant scoring. Note: All demos (see below) are played live using one vocal ambience and one set of vocals pr. demo, so they literally took 3-5 minutes to compose. So what you hear is what you get.
Update: Cait McWhir is also featured on the double Grammy award-winning album: “Calling All Dawns” by composer Christopher Tin. Chris discovered Cait through the 8DIO Forgotten Voices library.
