Leave it to Richard Harvey to capture different regional folk traditions so beautifully, respectfully, and deeply. This is cultural exchange done right.

[@MamaSymphonia]

This one is 100% on my wishlist, just haven't gotten around to grabbing it yet. I love that it was recorded in a similar way to Phoenix, I imagine the two blend beautifully

I cannot wait to own this. Southeast Asia, especially Japan (criminally so), and to a lesser degree, Indonesia and Thailand, are so untouched/underexplored in sampling. I know people who sample privately for their own projects, but as for products on the market available at the scale of an Orchestral Tools, there is a deluge of offerings. So, I'm glad to see this collaboration bring to life so many of my favorite instruments and others I have never heard of. Real, clear, nice and dry performances that aren't songs or drone effects. Personally, to someone like me who prizes these regions and their music and who understands just how soecial of an occasion this is, I think the current asking price is really fair if not borderline too low... I cannot waaaaaait to swoop this! Keep up the awesome work, OT! Give all our regards to Mr. Harvey! 🤍🤘🏼

Thank you for the lovely feedback!

That's the way to do it :)

I LOVE my Orchestral Tools family. Thanks for this. It looks amazing. But I do have a simple update request for the SINE player: 1) Show the library name next to the loaded sound. (Or an icon instead of a colored rectangle) 2) Show the name of my unique preset at the top of the loaded instruments. (Where it only says: KS Loaded Articulations.) Notice when two sources are loaded, as in 1:33. The library name does not show with the instruments. But what if I want to make a multi by also layering a shaker from the Gear Box library? Or more? I sometimes create presets that are slightly different from each other, but have no way of knowing which one I've loaded. Say, "Soft winds texture 5" and so on. That means I have to go into my preset folder and literally load ALL of the presets one by one, to see what I've loaded. It's a real flow killer. Are these requests possible? 🙏

[@shubus]

I have also noticed these issues and your suggestions seem very useful.

[@Orchestral-Tools]

Thank you for your honest feedback, we're always working to improve SINE.

Another stunning library

[@Orchestral-Tools]

Many thanks!

[@DesoloZantas]

I definitely could use these. But also I would definitely love to see a Bollywood type of library in the future.

[@Orchestral-Tools]

That would be really cool, you never know!

[@shubus]

Any project Richard Harvey is involved in is an INSTANT BUY. His collaborations with OT has given us some spectacular libraries and this one seems a another great addition that I can't wait to get my hands on. I do greatly appreciate seeing the pix of the instruments as it make it easier to recall the sounds.

[@Orchestral-Tools]

Being able to work with Richard is such a privilege.

[@N-JKoordt]

Why is it pronounced "sangara" when "å" is pronounced like the "oa" in "toad"? 😊

[@christopherpederson1021]

Splitting hairs

[@christopherpederson1021]

Orchestral tools should do a proper Armenian instrument, i.e. duduk kanun…

[@Orchestral-Tools]

That is a fantastic idea, thank you for the inspiration.

[@Grymt]

Please, let us hear the instruments without adding reverb. How are we supposed to know how the library sounds this way?

[@christopherpederson1021]

I’m sure some reviews wills show the dry sounds

[@spriggan3935]

I'm waiting for Richard's library of Renaissance woodwinds and assorted intruments...

[@Orchestral-Tools]

This would be great-thanks for the suggestion.

[@spriggan3935]

@@Orchestral-Tools Recorders, crumhorns, other reeds instruments, pipe organ, "Midnight Mushurumps" harmonium, plucked / bowed psaltery, mandolins... it would be great!

[@alexlamy6102]

@@spriggan3935 You could make a library just from the instrumentation of Midnight Mushrumps alone!
