Tonehammer - Zitherette | 340MB
This enchanting little instrument is a simple 8-string fretless zither, roughly 12 x 20 inches in size. Zithers are a broad family of hollow-bodied
string instruments common throughout all of Europe and Asia. Variants range from the dulcimer to the Koto, with countless other favors unique to each
region and culture. Common to each of them is the arrangement of multiple strings over a neck-less sound box. The oldest known variant of the zither
family dates back to 4th century B.C China, while new additions continue to spring up to this day.
Our particular hand-held zither has a smooth, dark tone, with a clean biting attack and long, natural decay. At it's softest, it has a pristine, amost
harp-like sound, while the hardest notes bend deeply at the attack, with a pronounced twang. We chose a pluck articulation and captured it very close
and dry, in wide stereo. We sampled our little zither extensively, as we do with all of our instruments. Each string has an average of 8 velocity
layers, with 4 round-robin variations per layer. We also captured palm mute release triggers, with 2 velocities and 4 round robins per note. We created
a variety of presets, to allow maximum ?exibility and intuitive playability.
We also created an array of custom sound-designed fx patches, extending the creative possibilities even further. Lastly, we've created a 'wet' version
of most of the core patches, using our own custom-captured convolution impulses.
