East West – Voices Of The Empire v1.0.2 (EAST WEST PLAY)

THE EAST MEETS THE WEST Uyanga
Bold is a unique talent that combines the musical traditions of Bulgaria, Serbia, Mongolia and other countries. A trained opera singer with perfect pitch, fluent in Russian, Mongolian, French, English and German, her voice is a real demonstration of the meeting of the East with the West. Her voice is otherworldly, yet authentic and world-class in its accuracy. She is featured on the soundtrack for the upcoming Disney remake of Mulan and recently toured with Hans Zimmer for his live performances of The Dark Knight. Forbes says that “her voice dates back to ancient civilizations” and she was nominated for “Singer of the Year”. She has appeared worldwide in television, radio and live performances, reaching over 25 million views across all platforms.
SUPPORT
A wide variety of vocal instruments including melismas, slares, sustain vibrato, non-vibrato and up-down. If you want bursts and earthiness but don’t need a lot of linked notes, sustain is your best bet.
LEGATO
Besides providing true legato for every octave interval, Uyangi’s performances are recorded in two completely different styles: Traditional and Mongolian. If you want a smooth performance that is as close to live as possible, this collection will most likely become your favorite collection in this library.
COMBO
These instruments combine multiple articulations into a single instrument that uses the Modulation Wheel (CC1) or Velocity Sensitivity to determine which of the different articulations will play. This collection is the best choice for real-time flexibility while playing, thanks to the simplicity and the speed with which you can make performance changes.
WORDS
These 29 words contain non-tonal renditions of specific words displayed in a 2 octave range, ideal for when you need the character of a Uyangi voice without any melodic quality. Bro, Di, Des, Jan, Door, Gore, Greer, HohuaHua, Ji, KalKo, Kon, La, Le, Mai, MohJ, Nar, Nosh, Rain, Sha, Som, Stra, StraBeyHe, Straw, Ve, Vesla, Vom, Vos, Vos (Breath), Yer.
PHRASES
Instruments containing a total of 254 phrases in Western and non-Western styles (approximately 21 phrases for each of the 12 root notes). These impromptu recordings gave Uyanga a chance to free himself, so while they don’t always stay in tune, they more than make up for it with passion and spontaneity.
ARTICULATION SWITCH
Combinations of Legatos, Melismas, Phrases, Sustains and Words into separate instruments controlled by MIDI keys. When precision and variability are important and you are ready to make some surgical adjustments, this collection offers a lot of flexibility.
INITIAL RECORDING TECHNIQUES
You can easily adjust the volume and panning of the Close (Josephson 257 and Neumann U47), Rear (pair of Coles 40-38) and Room (AKG C24) microphones, giving you control over tone color and stereo imaging. Layer them on top of each other for fuller, richer sound, or choose whichever quality you like best. All recordings were made at EastWest Studios, our world renowned recording studio known for producing more Grammy nominations than any other studio in the world: 121 in the last 7 years.
