8Dio Lacrimosa Advanced Articulations

8Dio Lacrimosa is the next generation of Epic Virtual Choirs. Lacrimosa is the largest choir (200 person) ever sampled. In this video we demonstrate the Lacrimosa Multi-Vowels, which is a new articulation system that allows you to write completely realistic fluent sentences for the choir. The Multi-Vowels were recorded at two different speeds (100% tempo-synced) and many at different dynamic levels, so you can go from a whispering choir to full scale epic. Lacrimosa was recorded in a pyramid like structure with 70 Basses, 60 Tenors, 40 Altos and 30 Sopranos. This allows the males to be equally powerful to the women - who commonly dominate the mix in epic choral scores. The library contains both mixed and separate patches for male and female sections. Lacrimosa contains 3 microphone positions (Mixed, Decca, Far) and wealth of deep-sampled articulations, including layered True Legato, extensive sets of Multi-Vowels (allowing the choir to sing 100% realistic and fast), Staccato, Power-Marcato, Arcs, Sustains and many other elements.
