Sonic Implants Releases Vintage Mellotron and ARP String
Samples
June 26, 2000Sonic Network, Inc.,
(formerly Hruska Audio Productions), a creator
of high quality sounds and music for synthesizers, PCs
and the Internet, has announced the release of Mellotron
and Arp Solina String Ensemble soundfonts. Samples
from two of the most famous vintage keyboard instruments
are now available from their website.
"Today we rely on digital samples and modern synthesizer
technology for the culmination of realistic instrument
sounds," explained Jennifer Hruska, president of Sonic
Network, Inc., in announcing the new release. "But
before there were microprocessors, there were string
boxes. The Mellotron is one of the most well known
and easily recognized early legends. It's signature
sound has shown up on hundreds of albums from the
Beatles to Beck and has spanned decades of musical
changes without ever going out of style. The Arp Solina
String Ensemble is a product of the late 70's. This
keyboard has been made famous by Elton John, The
Eagles, New Order, and The Cure."
Sonic Implants String Boxes CD-ROM contains a choice
selection of sounds from the Mellotron tapes. All 8 seconds
of every note is included. (Small memory versions also
included.) Three different string recordings from the Mark2,
the M200 and the M300 plus the Boys Choir, the Mixed
Choir and of course the infamous Mellotron Flute. The Solina
Arp String Ensemble was recorded and programmed to
provide every sound and knob variation the instrument is
capable of, including some unique Sonic Implants variations,
featuring fantastic pads, filter sweeps, FX and leads.
