Soniccouture have launched the Crowd-Choir project - a crowd-source concept of a unique sampler instrument comprised of hundreds of different voices from all around the world.
If successful, the idea is that the resulting instrument will be a huge choral pad, a wash of vocals with all kinds of characters, recorded with all kinds of different equipment, melded into one sound.
James Thompson from SC says: "We don't yet know if it will work or how it might sound - but we're going to give it everything we've got to try to pull it off."
All contributors will receive the resulting Crowd-choir instrument free of charge (in Kontakt, EXS24 & Ableton Live format).
The project will run for approximately 2 months, ending on 31st March, 2012.
