Creatively Sampled Six-Stringed Baroque Instrument For Full Kontakt

The Viola Da Gamba is a six-stringed baroque instrument. It’s similar in size to the Cello, but has a slightly different shape, uses frets, and is tuned in 4ths. It is strung with synthetic gut strings, which give it a strident, husky sound.

The Gamba’s earthy tones can provide a rustic alternative to the classical string sound. This is one of only a handful of other baroque virtual instruments recorded.

Features

  • 2 Instrument NKI’s – Multiple articulations and rhythmic fragments
  • Three octave range – from C2 up to C5

This library is ideally suited to intimate Film Scoring, TV Music, Chamber/Baroque Music or any situation that requires organic, rustic Viola Da Gamba textures.

Note: Requires the FULL Retail version of Kontakt 5.8.1 or later (NOT compatible with the Free Kontakt Player).

Note: Please be aware you will be required to visit an external website in order to create an account, redeem and download your product. We do not host the download at VSTBuzz.

How Does Viola Da Gamba Work?

Ben Osterhouse’s “Viola Da Gamba” library is presented in two forms: Gamba Articulations and Gamba Rhythms – split into 2 nki’s:

NKI 1 – 12 Articulations

  • Long Bow
  • Trills
  • Staccato
  • Endless Bow
  • Turns
  • Ricochet
  • Scratch
  • Short
  • Pizzicato
  • Tremolo
  • Swell
  • Rough

All of the different articulations can be easily layered together within a single interface.

NKI 2 – Small Rhythmic Figures

These have been designed to fit together to create natural sounding ostinato patterns.

Each of the rhythmic figures can be accessed either by using key switches or using a unique interface which allows you to visually arrange the figures into a sequence.

Each rhythmic figure is recorded as a 4-bar loop, and the musical emphasis is given to downbeats and upbeats. This gives a natural ebb and flow to any ostinato pattern created with the Gamba.

It has a three-octave range from C36 (2 octaves below middle C) up to C72 (an octave above middle C).

If you are looking for organic, rustic Viola Da Gamba textures, this instrument is for you!
