IYTTIW SAMPLE SET

IYTTIW stands for "If You Think This Is Weird". A very unique set based on original trumpet samples. Its diminutive size packs a big sound. Perfect on its own or for doubling other sounds. 551 samples for a small size of 15.7 MB.

I played and recorded some trumpet and made samples from the performance. Then I processed the samples to alter their timbral and spectral quality. In some of them you can still hear the trumpet and in others you could not guess their origin.

What really makes these sounds unique is the fact that even when they do sound synthesized, they retain the pitch modulations of the original trumpet performance which would be impossible to reproduce with a standard synthesizer. It contains 41 multi-sampled programs without velocity layers that are common to all formats. They are all short sounds, no pads here. It's very well-suited for staccato playing and sequencing.

It is offered in the following formats:
-wav -sfz -soundfont -Native Instruments Kontakt 3.5 or better -Wusikstation 5.8 or better

The Kontakt 3.5 version additionally has 21 multis and 50 instruments made with the Tone and Time machines that greatly expand its sound palette. These stretched instruments usually have longer durations than the basic samples, 14 of them with sustain. There are 94 instruments and multis in total.

The Wusikstation version has 49 additional presets for a total of 90 presets, many combining the IYTTIW waveforms with some of the Famous Keys ones.

Will be back soon!
