Description

Unleash an expressive wave of sound with the Ben Osterhouse Ripple Cello, a Kontakt instrument that transforms your compositions with its unique two-note slur textures. This plugin captures the evocative energy of string instruments as they seamlessly glide between notes in a single bow stroke, offering a natural flow that’s impossible to replicate through separate recordings.

Designed for creative exploration, the Ripple Cello enables musicians to perform overlapping notes within a perfect 4th to trigger these enchanting slurs, or "ripples". The samples are masterfully recorded as swells, starting with barely perceptible ghost notes that grow into vivid, dynamic transitions. Each slur naturally adapts to your playing, ensuring a fresh and dynamic performance every time.

Beyond its captivating sound design, the Ripple Cello includes a Midi Clip Browser, showcasing 80 midi clips that highlight the library’s potential. These clips can be effortlessly dragged into your DAW, serving as a springboard for your creativity. The plugin’s intuitive ripple engine ensures that samples sync perfectly to your DAW’s tempo, providing a seamless integration into any project.

Whether you're an aspiring composer or a seasoned musician, the Ben Osterhouse Ripple Cello invites you to explore new sonic landscapes, inspiring innovative string arrangements in your music.

Key Features:

  • Quarters, Eighths, and Sixteenths articulations
  • 80 Midi clips available in an integrated "ideas" browser
  • Natural and intuitive sample playback with the ripple engine
  • Tempo-syncing to your DAW’s BPM using Kontakt’s tmpro
  • 345 MB compressed size, featuring 684 samples at 110 BPM

Checking Out: Ripple Cello by Osterhouse Sounds - Sample Library Review

samplelibraryreview.com

Ripple Cello by Osterhouse Sounds takes center stage in the world of sampled cellos with its expressive and innovative approach. The library offers a realistic performance right out of the box, though achieving peak realism requires some MIDI tweaking. Its unique "ripples" feature allows for intriguing chord play, albeit limited to a perfect fourth interval. The instrument's synchronization capabilities and control over slurred performances add further versatility, making it a powerful tool for composers. While the complexity might initially baffle, the built-in IDEAS browser and official walkthrough clear the fog, showcasing its potential. At $79, Ripple Cello breathes life into cello performances, perfect for both film scoring and song production.
