Direct a complete children's choir on your own terms with Tonehammer Liberis, the latest choir library featuring the professional 45-piece Piedmont Children's Choir led by choir conductor Bob Geary from Volti.

Tonehammer notes that this new library represents the most detailed sampling ever done of a high-end symphonic children's choir and the most ambitious release in the history of Tonehammer. Liberis allows you to create realistic sounding choral works by using a variety of next-generation features, including true ensemble legato with speed control and legato for poly-sustained chants.

Liberis also contains sustains from piano (p) to forte (f), staccato with repetitions, marcato with sustains, BPM (host-synced) Latin chants recorded at different speeds and velocity layers, and an effects section with over 1,000 effects ranging from basic consonant / vowels, clusters, sweeps, whispers, shouts, chirps, children's songs, claps, snaps, and so forth.

In addition, the library is recorded in 24-bit, 44.1 kHz resolution with three 5.1 microphone positions, three different solo singers with poly-sustains, and an ambient section by Steve Tavaglione. All pre-orders will receive an exclusive additional ambient library: "Liberambius" with content made from Liberis.
