Garritan Harps Plug-In

Garritan Harps is a library that has meticulously sampled every string of each harp included. Coming in a range of sizes all the way up to full sized concert harps this library features samples from some of the finest harp makers in the world such as Venus Salvi and Lyon & Healy. The pedals are also emulated so you can compose realistic music and have authentic glissandos. A range of dynamics and articulation have been painstakingly sampled as well as special effects. This level of effort and detail allows you to write truly idiomatic harp parts. This library uses the ARIA player also used by Garritans other libraries. ARIA Player is a free software that can either run as a standalone program or as a plug-in (AU VST or RTAS) in DAWs sequencers or notation software. This makes Garritans libraries ideal for many musicians whether you are a producer in a studio or a live performing musician. ARIA player also features Endless Wave technology for efficient streaming of samples from the hard disk.

Detailed samples Each string on each harp is recorded with a piezoelectric sensor achieving an incredible clarity and detail in each sample. Four dynamic layers are captured as well meaning you can imbue the kind of expression that does an instrument like the harp justice. A range of special effects was also sampled these effects include harmonics damping and playing near the soundboard with these you can make your music sound as if you have a real harpist in your studio. Chords arpeggio trills tremolos and bisbigliandos are also included and able to be simulated using the pedal emulation. This allows you to create very convincing music that works with the physical design of the harp. An extra bonus is that you can be sure that if you ever have the opportunity to record the music with a harpist then it will be possible for them to perform these effects. The harps recorded are made by some of the most famous harp makers including Venus Salvi and Lyon & Healy. ARIA Player integration Each Garritan library has its own unique integration with the ARIA Player. Garritan Harps allows you to alter parameters unique to the instruments like the finger pluck sound and brightness or aggressiveness. Microphone placement can be altered within the stereo space to suit your production. ARIA also supports Scala files so you can alter the tuning system of the virtual instruments. You can play in historic temperaments or use non-Western tuning systems for your music. There is an inbuilt reverb in ARIA which allows you to add space to your sounds. Mixing sends for each instrument allows you to control the amount of reverb individually. The convolution reverb allows you to place your sounds in various sampled spaces such as a cathedral a film score space or a variety of concert halls.
