A youthful chorus
Experience the clear, youthful tones of the Mercury Boys' Choir Micro, capturing the essence of a traditional English boys' choir. This library offers a selection of piano and forte dynamics for "Ah" and "Oo" vowels, embodying the purity and innocence of the choir's 25 members, aged 8 to 13. Recorded in a prestigious hall that enriches each note with a bright, open sound, this collection is essential for creating realistic and emotive choral pieces that resonate with listeners.
Liturgical articulations brought to life
Mercury Boys' Choir Micro stands out with its inclusion of "Kyrie" and "Eleison," two tempo-syncable word articulations from Christian liturgy. These unique offerings allow composers to integrate traditional liturgical elements into their music seamlessly. The ability to sync these phrases with your project's tempo ensures that they complement your compositions perfectly, adding a layer of depth and spirituality that is rare in sample libraries.
In-depth control with custom Kontakt UI
The library's custom Kontakt user interface opens up a world of sonic sculpting. With controls for attack, release, dynamics, vibrato, legato, and more, you have the flexibility to mould the choir's sound to fit your vision. The interface also offers extensive options for spatial effects, including over 50 custom reverb impulse responses ranging from cathedrals to creative FX, enabling you to place your choir in virtually any acoustic space imaginable.
Creative possibilities with FX presets
Mercury Boys' Choir Micro doesn't just replicate a choir; it invites you to reimagine what a choir can be. With 30 special FX presets exclusive to this library, you're equipped to explore a vast landscape of sonic textures. From ethereal pads to haunting atmospheres, these presets leverage the choir's samples in innovative ways, providing a springboard for creativity and ensuring your compositions stand out with originality and depth.
