Best Service releases “Forrest Kingdom”

Posted by admin on April 04, 2011 in Announcements, Products

Eduardo Tarilonte, known for “Epic World”, has released Forest Kingdom – a unique sample library inspired by Nature. Forest Kingdom is certainly unique and fills a void in the sample marketplace at the current time. I think that this would actually be beneficial to game composers and anyone writing meditation/new age music. I’d like to have a play around with it at some stage and see what possible applications the sounds can have.

From the website:

“It is the sound of forests and jungles, the sound of Mother Nature herself in one sample library!
Forest Kingdom is a 7 GB library with more than 200 patches and 7.500 individual samples (44Khz-24bits) that includes flutes, harps, percussion, fantasy creatures, voices and sonic landscapes.”

Instruments

Celtic Harps: Two magical harps (accoustic and electric)
Flutes: Bulgarian piccolo flute, Native American Kiowa flute, African Fula Flute, Double Flute, Xiao and a full set of Panpipes, from the tiniest to the hugest (1,5 meters height and B0 to C6 range)
Percussion: A great set of percussion instruments from ambient to powerful, including numerous different shakers, chimes, taiko, duff, cumacos, slic drum, udu, marimbola (a huge kalimba) and more…Percussion has from 6 to 14 different velocity layers and 4 round robin each.
Pads: 80 totally controllable soundscapes the likes of which you’ve never heard before.
Voices: A beautiful ethereal solo voice with real legato and shamanic phrases.
Fantasy Creatures: Forest Kingdom includes an array of fantasy creatures sounds and bird calls.
