Sampled Zither

Post by Nanawel »

Hi everyone !

As I wasn’t satisfied by zither virtual instruments I found around, I went in a monastery, and sampled a real one (En Calcat model) using a pair of stereo km184 thru an apogee interface.

It was played with real hands (haha!) and I try to make the sound the most realistic possible, with real imperfections !
I also took sound effects (tuning etc) and all minor / major arpeggios.

Below is a little improvisation where you can hear how sounds unlooped nsmp version (solo with just reverb) and another mp3 to hear every samples dry.

I'm selling it on my website in two versions : Nord nsmp & ns2p only or with Exs instrument + individual wav files.
You'll find it here :

Cheers ! (Edited message to make mp3 player visible. Mr_-G- )

I downloaded your Zither sample, but the file is not a nsmp extension.
Instead the file is called: AAA0EmVWd_niCakPcN-GF6EJa
What am I supposed to do with this?!

There must be a reason why you sell your sample together with a NS2 program even if you own a NS3 yourself?

Edit: I totally missed the original post is 8+ years old.

In the original post is dated 2015 the OP was just advertising that he sells this sound on his web site, so any issue/claim/question regarding a purchase and download of it (which I assume is what you did, right?) should be asked to him on that site as well, imho

Good catch, I totally missed that this post is nine years old. I think nowadays anything "for sale" needs to be in a specific part of the forum. I also didn't notice at first that this was a for sale item.
