A few years back I recorded a series of chromatic cello samples played in a number of different styles. I used two PZM microphones and some Oktava MK-012s into a modified PAIA<\/a> tube preamp.

Ring!” (yet to be blogged about). <\/p>\n My favorite part of the session was when I had the cellist (Topu Lyo) play some pizzicato scales. A couple of years later, I worked these sounds into a Misadventures of Two<\/a> song called “Fielding”. They added a sort of “Early Sixties Claymation Christmas Special” sound to the song.<\/p>\n Fielding You can really hear the strings in the beginning of the song and during the break at 1:50.<\/p>\n I am considering making these samples into a VSTi with some tweakable parameters such as the usual ADSR envelope for amplitude, some distortion, reverb and a bit\/sample crush for the mentally disturbed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A few years back I recorded a series of chromatic cello samples played in a number of different styles.
