Starting from July 20 we are proud to announce that all of our Next Generation Choir Series products will be encoded for the Free Kontakt Player as well as powered by the NKS Control Standard. In addition to that every choir will receive one major free update adding Performance Patches as well as new features and small improvements over the next weeks. Each week will see a different choir in the spotlight.
Next up in line is RHODOPE 2 Ethnic Bulgarian Choir.
About RHODOPE 2
Being in development for more than 3 years, the final chapter of Strezov Sampling’s Next Generation Choir Series is at hand. Starting with WOTAN, the lowest and probably most powerful men choir ever sampled, FREYJA – the first sampled choir to focus on the beauty of the female voice, and ÁRVA featuring a boys’ and girls’ choir, RHODOPE 2 gives you a real authentic ethnic Bulgarian choir at your fingertips! A breathtaking and unique voice timbre sampled the Strezov way for highest playability and expression without any compromises in sound.
Including the revolutionary Syllabuilder Engine (first introduced with WOTAN), True Polyphonic Legato as well as the brand new Agile Legato, which allows you to play polyphonic legato with every syllable inside the library, RHODOPE 2 benefits from every little secret discovered in a more than 4 years long journey which resulted in the most playable and realistic sounding choir libraries ever made.
Syllabuilder Engine 3.5
When it comes to virtual choirs, there are basically two approaches: Phrasebuilding and Wordbuilding. RHODOPE 2 combines the simplicity and sample recording of
phrasebuilding with the advanced editing functions of wordbuilding.
This allows you to have amazing sounding results within seconds, but also to build and create new sample content with only a few mouse-clicks. Create complete choral patterns inside the GUI or connect different syllables and morph them to add motion to your choir arrangements. Save and Load complete lyric presets to quickly get yourself into the actual composition or enhance your setup with predefined quick words.
All samples have their natural attacks included. However, if you want to tighten them up, the Syllabuilder Engine allows you to set custom attack, release, volume and offset values for each field independently. Something first introduced by WOTAN Male Choir and before that – greatly missed in all phrasebuilding choir libraries.
Revolutionary Legato
One of the biggest trademarks of RHODOPE 2 is its unique legato scripting, combining polyphonic true legato sampling with our very own Syllabuilding approach. The Syllabuilder Agile Legato not only allows the user to play legato with every syllable available in the library, but also features intelligent voice leading enabling polyphonic writing within just one patch. In other words: Hold down a chord in the left, play a melody with your right hand and have it all connected with legato transitions. This powerful feature is controllable by the most common of all midi cc controllers, the sustain pedal.
In addition to the Agile Legato, Rhodope 2 again also features polyphonic true legato patches (Ah, Eh ) using the same principles as Freyja and Árva.
Overview:
– Authentic Ethnic Bulgarian choir recorded in Sofia Session Studio
– Recorded “tutti” for a bigger sound

从7月20日开始，我们自豪地宣布，我们所有的下一代合唱系列产品都将针对Free Kontakt Player进行编码，并由NKS控制标准提供支持。除此之外，每个合唱团将获得一个主要的免费更新，其中包括Performance Patches，新功能以及在未来几周内进行的小改进。每个星期在聚光灯下都会看到不同的合唱团。
接下来的是RHODOPE 2保加利亚民族合唱团。
关于RHODOPE 2经过
3年多的发展，Strezov Sampling的下一代合唱团系列即将进入最后一章。从WOTAN开始，这是有史以来最低且可能最强大的男子合唱团，FREYJA-第一个以女性嗓音美感为重点的合唱团，而RHVAPE 2则以男女合唱团为特色，RHODOPE 2带给您真正的民族风情保加利亚合唱团唾手可得!令人叹为观止的独特音色采样了Strezov方式，具有最高的可演奏性和表达能力，而声音丝毫不受影响。
RHODOPE 2包括革命性的Syllabuilder Engine(与WOTAN一起首次引入)，True Polyphonic Legato以及全新的Agile Legato(可让您在库中的每个音节上演奏复音Legato)，RHODOPE 2受益于在经过4年的漫长历程，最终创造了有史以来最可玩，最逼真的合唱库。
Syllabuilder Engine 3.5
涉及虚拟合唱团时，基本上有两种方法：短语建立和字词构建。RHODOPE 2将短语构建的简单性和示例记录与
单词构建的高级编辑功能结合在一起。
这使您可以在几秒钟内获得惊人的声音效果，而且只需单击几下鼠标即可构建和创建新的样本内容。在GUI内创建完整的合唱模式，或连接不同的音节并对其进行变形以增加合唱安排的动感。保存并加载完整的歌词预设，以快速进入实际的构图或使用预定义的快速词来增强设置。
所有样本都包括其自然攻击。但是，如果要加强它们，则Syllabuilder Engine允许您分别为每个字段设置自定义起音，释放，音量和偏移值。WOTAN Male合唱团首先介绍的东西，在此之前-在所有短语组建合唱团库中都严重丢失。
革命性的
连奏RHODOPE 2的最大商标之一是其独特的连奏脚本，将复音真实连奏采样与我们自己的Syllabuilding方法结合在一起。Syllabuilder Agile Legato不仅允许用户使用库中的每个音节弹奏连奏，而且还具有智能语音引导功能，可在一个音色内实现复音书写。换句话说：按住左和弦，用右手演奏旋律，并使所有旋律与连奏过渡相连。在所有Midi cc控制器中最常见的控制器(延音踏板)可控制此强大功能。
除了Agile Legato，Rhodope 2再次采用与Freyja和Árva相同的原理，复音的真正的Legato音色(Ah，Eh)。
