Soundiron releases "The Beat Boxer" - Vocal Percussion library for Kontakt - with Intro Offer

20th January 2014 - KVR Audio News

Soundiron has released The Beat Boxer, a comprehensive and fully playable human beatbox vocal percussion library for Kontakt. This hybrid multi-sample/groove library transforms the creative vocal art of up-and-coming East Bay beatboxer "Jbox" (Jerry Girard) into a flexible and detailed virtual instrument.

The Beat Boxer contains over 100 different instrument articulations spread across 11 distinct "drum" categories, each with an average of 12x round robin variation. Articulations range from essential drum sounds to classic beatboxing sound effect such as snares, kicks, toms and hi-hats as wells as turntable scratches, synths, breaths, clicks, pops, stutterbeats and more. An advanced user interface and custom scripting allow users to shape the sound by means of volume, attack, offset, dynamics, humanization and more. The library includes an integrated MIDI Groove playback system with custom controls such as a complete remapping feature with user map saving and loading. It ships with a number of industry-standard drum maps.

The library also features 100 live performance loops and 108 augmented loops. Loop playback features include tempo-syncing, time-stretching, pitch transposition and more. All loops can also be played back through the integrated Phrase Sequencer, which allows per-slot phrase start, end and pitch transposition for extensive flexibility.

The library is programmed for the full version of Native Instruments Kontakt 5.1 and later and comes equipped with a custom user interface that provides real-time automation control and customization. Soundiron's full FX Rack is also provided, which features compression, amp & speaker simulation, flanger, chorus, phaser, delay, EQ, resonant filter and convolution reverb that includes dozens of custom rooms and special FX impulses to choose from.
