Clarinet and Bassoon Modules Now Available From Westgate Studios

As part of the ongoing Modular Series, Westgate Studios is proud to announce the release of The Clarinets Module and The Bassoons Module. These libraries are available separately for Gigastudio 3.1 and Kontakt 2.1 and feature 24 bit samples recorded using the same methods as previous modules. On the DVDs you will find a comprehensive set of patches for Bb Clarinet, Eb Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, Contrabass Clarinet, Solo Bassoon, Contrabassoon and Bassoon Section.

The most important feature of these libraries is the Legato playing style. These patches contain not only expressive long notes, but also true legato interval samples that were recorded as the musicians played every note up and down from 1 half-step all the way up to a full octave. You don't have to load any special tools to control them because the Legato effect is powered by Gigastudio's imidi rules and Kontakt's scripting engine. You can also vary the Attack Strength of each note, control the use of Release Samples, and play Same-Note Legato Repetitions in any rhythm or tempo.

Along with these highlights you'll also find: Staccato and Marcato articulations, Trills, Runs and changing dynamics such as Crescendo, Diminuendo, and Fortepiano. Also includes Glissando samples for the Bb Clarinet and Multiphonic FX for Bassoon and Clarinet.

The Clarinets Module is available on DVD for either Gigastudio 3.1 or Kontakt 2.1 for only $125 (US). The Bassoons Module is available on DVD for either Gigastudio 3.1 or Kontakt 2.1 for only $95 (US).
