Gentle Wind Instruments Sound Library

Orchestral Tools have announced Whisper, the latest in their evolving series of creative soundpacks. They say that Whisper provides music creators with an inspiring palette of wind instrumentation curated for the ethereal, perfect for creating evocative atmospheric soundscapes for scoring, sound design, and music production.

Orchestral Tools Founder and CEO Hendrik Shwarzer, told us, "We designed Whisper to produce a rich sonic palette of delicate, breathy textures. From murmuring winds and drifting melodies to billowy, atmospheric soundscapes, it's the perfect addition to any sound designer or composer's toolkit."

Here's more details direct from Orchestral Tools...

Whisper consists of four softly-played wind instruments-- flute, muted cornet, flugelhorn, and bass clarinet -- alongside a rich ensemble of intricately processed pads, plucks, and keys. With a super-soft legato and a choice of short, expressive, or long swells, these sounds possess a delicate, intimate character that span the range from tonal to textural, giving composers and sound designers a library of evocative, organic sounds. All four instruments have been crafted with the same attention to detail as Orchestral Tools' flagship Berlin Series orchestras and come complete with a wide range of articulations and three mic positions per instrument, allowing for total control and flexibility.

In addition to individual use, all four instruments can also be performed as a group to create unique ensemble sounds; from subtle sound design touches to billowy soundscapes with drifting melodies and atmospheric harmonies. All instrumentation utilizes Orchestral Tools' SINEplayer for flexible and intuitive DAW integration.

Whisper runs in the free SINE player.
