Angelic Vocal Pads 5 for NI Kontakt 3, 4 and 5
Three versions of Angelic Vocal Pads 5 are provided for NI Kontakt 3, 4 and 5. The “Mode I + II”
instrument uses two layers of stereo samples for each vowel. “Mode I” and “Mode II” use one layer
of stereo samples for each vowel, with different samples for each instrument. The single-mode
instruments use half the polyphony of the “Mode I + II” instrument.
Perform page
The Perform page presents several ways to control the sound of the voice, during real-time MIDI
performance, as well as directly on the instrument interface.
The Voice section contains three drop-down menus: Source, Destination, and Control. The Source is
the vowel sound that plays by default. The Destination is a different vowel sound, into which the
Source can be morphed. The Control menu is where you select the method of morphing.
The Source menu selects the instrument’s current vowel (A, E, I, O, U, M), which you hear when you
play a note. To the left of each vowel name on the menu is a corresponding keyswitch:
Keyswitch
Source Vowel
C1
A
C#1
E
D1
I
D#1
O
E1
U
F1
M
Pressing these keyswitches changes the current vowel too, and the Source menu updates
accordingly.
