PSOUND Bandoneon

PSOUND Bandoneon

Reproduction of an historic Alfred Arnold Bandoneon
Bandoneon consists of a Philological reproduction of an historic Alfred Arnold Bandoneon made in Germany in the 50s! His typical sound is based on 2 reeds (Zinc) for each note. PSound Bandoneon has been sampled in 4 layers with 2 round robin for a total of 440 samples.

•     Recording - The Bandoneon was recorded with a Neumann TLM103 large diaphragm microphone thru an amazing Apogee Symphony I/O converter with its own Mic Preamp card for the best audio resolution and musical details. All the 440 samples are in 96kHz/24bit resolution!
•     Analysis - By a careful analysis of the sound there is a great variation of the harmonic spectrum during the dynamic range of the reeds. This fact depends on the high quality of the hand made reeds of the instrument.
•     Loops - All the samples of the Bandoneon are perfectly looped with "DSPQuattro" audio editing software. In this way, you can play very long notes from your instruments without interruptions.
•     Preset 1 - The "Full Range" preset consists of both left and right hands notes mixed, it allows you to have a 56 notes (from F2 to C7).
•     Preset 2 - The "Left Hand" preset implements the left hand keys of the Bandoneon, with 32 notes (from from F2 to C5).
•     Preset 3 - The "Right Hand" preset implements the right hand keys, with 36 notes (G3 to C7).
•     Layers & Filters - 4 dynamic layers and 2 round-robins were used for each note of the instrument.
