50% off “Ashen Scoring Cello” by Wavelet Audio

Explore A Versatile And Wonderfully Sampled Cello That Fits Many Genres

As composers, Wavelet Audio understand the importance of high-quality cello instrument featuring traditional and non-traditional articulations. Every sample was cut and edited by hand to catch the beautiful tone of the cello.

Recorded with up to 8 Round Robins and 4 Dynamic Layers for incredible realism. For short articulations, Wavelet Audio didn’t record one-shot samples one-by-one but real performances and took the samples from real repetitions.

This technique is called “Repetition Sampling”. It gives more general musicality and energy, increased tightness, and focuses on the samples’ attack.

“Ashen Scoring Cello” is built primarily for film composers looking for a unique and idiosyncratic voice. It includes some standard repertoire like sustained legato and pizzicato, but it’s also got some really great articulations like strumming with a credit card, a very nasty sul ponticello, and even percussion on the cello body.

Unleash Your Creativity

The second important part of Wavelet Audio’s library is a highly advanced Performance Designer.

This tool can be used in many situations and for many purposes. For example, you can create harmony and then play a melody using playable instruments over the top of it. Or you can generate interesting rhythmic patterns that will perfectly complement the basic rhythms of the composition.

All performances work perfectly together with each other and are divided into five categories: melodies, harmonies, rhythms, percussion, others. Also, Wavelet Audio prepared a bunch of presets/snapshots and programmed a smart randomizing function.

The Performance Designer is not conceived to fully replace the entire cello player in the first place. But more as an addition to compliment the arrangement. It is not created as a soundtoy that replaces the artist completely.

About The Performer

“Ashen Scoring Cello” has been beautifully performed by the extremely talented [Alder & Ash] and recorded in Montreal, Québec.

Alder & Ash (Adrian Copeland) uses the cello to its absolute extremes of calm and violence. The Montreal-based instrumentalist brings together elements of modern classical, noise, and doom, exploring the dichotomies of minimalism and maximalism, stillness and cacophony, terror and chaos.

Copeland composes on the cello, aided by the instrument’s remarkable range – not only the typical, smooth legato and pizzicato, but a host of extended techniques, as well: scordatura (detuning strings), col legno (striking the strings with the bow), ponticello (metallic, shrill overtones), and percussive sounds created from the cello itself.

The project has a broad, unorthodox variety of influences, which comes through in the final product. While the music is grounded in minimal classical and post-rock, it also reveals colours of black metal, industrial, classical impressionism, and ambient music.

Copeland released 3 albums under the name Alder & Ash, and one album under his own name Adrian Copeland.
