Kelfar Technologies, "Sofia" Sound Library
Kelfar Technologies' Sofia offers musicians a treasure of Balkan instrument sounds
not found elsewhere. The new Korg Kronos KRS 96 Sofia library uses physical
modeling to accurately and precisely reproduce the unique and haunting sounds of
Balkan traditional and contemporary music. It was programmed and engineered
collaboratively between Costin Caraulani and Kelfar Technologies using Korg
Kronos synthesis engines: CMT (Component Modeling Technology); STR-1;
MOD-7; AL-1; MS-20EX; and PolsixEX. Using AMS (Alternate Modulation
Source), After Touch, Velocity, Joystick, and Ribbon, the team emulated the
articulation of each modeled instrument. The result is a haunting selection of
familiar Balkan instruments emulating the tones and articulation of the reed, bow,
and string models found in MOSS (Multi-Oscillator Synthesis System). Musicians
can perform Bulgarian, Serbian, Albanian, Macedonian, Greek, Romanian and
other southeastern European music using authentic and accurate sounds modeled
from Balkan instruments. The melodic selection encompasses such instruments as
the gajde, kavalla, saxsho, violonika, trompet-serbo, saxophone-boje, zurna, flute,
kanon, oud, bouzoukisu, strings and many more. Sofia offers musicians the
ultimate suite of Balkan instruments so realistic you'll look for the oud player!
The Sofia set includes 69 Programs [U-FF] all driven by Korg Kronos
