Create Your Own Custom Notre Dame de Budapest Organ Collectionlibrary now offers a choice of stops and combinations for users  February 23, 2004
Shirokuma Ltd. has released a custom edition of Notre
Dame de Budapest Pipe Organ Samples (NDB), a pipe organ sampling collection designed for
Tascam's GigaStudio. Customers, who visit the company website
(www.orgona.org) may select and purchase any or all of the stops and combinations from the library.
The samples of the both the full and custom editions feature minor enhancements over the original
samples released last year as well. 'The world of professional audio is about constantly searching our limits and never
stop refining our work,' said Csaba Huszty, NDB architect and lead engineer. 'For us, it is not enough that
NDB is the best organ sample collection that can be bought on the market today. We are working really hard
on keeping it this way, among other, by continuously expanding the collection with new stops and
combinations.'
Current NDB users may download or receive these upgrades free of charge.
This year Shirokuma announced an international contest for pieces played with the samples
of the library. The International NDB Improvisation and Composition Contest 2004 calls for original works or
improvizations in standard MIDI format, while the International NDB J. S. Bach Interpretation Contest 2004
invites interpretations of a given J. S. Bach piece.
