Santur KONTAKT

TALULA | 30.03.2020 | 508 MB

Again we have set a great focus on creating an instrument with an organic and realistic feel. We have beaten the 72 metallic strings with two different kind of mallets. We have used a hard mallet that creates the typical bright, rather clear sound as well as a soft mallet which generates a more mellow, less aggressive timbre. The overall sound can be altered by determining the length of the notes, adding distortion or adjusting the high as well as the low frequencies. The Santur provides our – from Hammered Duclimer known – „Tremolo-Option“ which can be controlled in different ways. Generally the tremolo option is capable of creating a very tragic and dramatic. The Santur is an extraordinary instrument with quite a lot of possibilites which you can use to add a special character to your music.
