Ilya Efimov Production has launched Irish Wind Tin Whistle, a new ethnic folk instrument library for Native Instruments Kontakt.
The Irish Tin Whistle library is an instrument based on a highly playable legato system. Ilya Efimov sampled all possible intervals in several versions. Thus, a user gets all-natural realistic legato and full control over dynamics and expression, as well as the ability to add and control vibrato and frullato.
There is a variety of articulations: mordent, grace note (forshlag), slides, staccato, trill and rolls and a unique system of articulation switching. The library also contains additional features such as Repetition Key and Attack mode. A user can reassign keyswitches and MIDI controllers, saving all settings on a computer.
