EastWest Symphonic Choirs Platinum Plus VOTA Expansion - Electronic Delivery

Imagine typing words into your computer, in any language, and hearing a world class Symphonic Choir sing those words in any key(s) you play "live" on your keyboard controller! Well imagine no more, that's exactly what the revolutionary, award-winning EastWest Symphonic Choirs Platinum Plus Vota Expansion virtual instrument does. In addition, the Platinum edition (Gold edition has one mic position and is 16-bit) is the first 24-bit Choir virtual instrument to include three simultaneous stereo mic setups (close, stage and hall), so users can mix any combination of mic positions to control ambience. The Choirs were recorded in the same concert hall, by the same team as the EastWest/Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra and blend perfectly with EWQLSO.

To achieve the feel of a live concert hall performance, each instrument and section was recorded with three mic positions: close, stage (conductor‘s position) and hall. By selecting different mic positions, users can mix these sounds together to create any kind of natural ambience their project requires. This eliminates the need for artificial reverb.

Within this version, is the Symphonic Choirs Expansion containing VOTA (Voices of the Apocalypse content) which was recorded separately, at 24-bit resolution with a single mic position. “Vota” samples are added to the “hard” Men’s and Women’s choirs to add the option of very loud vowels (fff) with extra vibrato. Keep the Mod Wheel near the bottom of its range to hear a sound like the basic Men’s and Women’s “hard” choirs, or push the Mod Wheel up to incrementally increase the loudness and vibrato. Please note that the Vota instruments also require more RAM usage than the DYN HARD patches on which they are based.
