This is our most extensive world instrument library to date, making it an ideal choice for creating realistic Middle Eastern music, cinematic scores, world fusion, and much more.The term "Koron" in traditional Iranian music refers to notes a quarter-step lower in pitch, a distinguishing feature of Iranian and other Eastern traditional music. This virtual instrument library pays homage to this concept, capturing the essence of Iran's rich musical forms and history. It also aims to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western music by offering composers new timbres and a fresh perspective on music creation.The Koron collection was born from the vision of Siavash Mozaffari, who embarked on a 'sonic journey' to Iran with the aim of sharing the sounds of Iran's traditional instruments in a virtual format. The result of this collaboration is a comprehensive world instrument library featuring 5 melodic and 5 percussive instruments, including the Kamanche, Tar, Tanbour, Setar, Santoor, Bendir, Daf, Kuzeh, Tonbak, and Zarbe.In addition to the vast pool of samples, we've designed Kontakt patches with our latest script techniques such as Total Articulation Control Technology (TACT) for custom mapping, and phrase editing right within Kontakt itself. We've also included detailed information and images of every instrument recorded, allowing users to gain insight into their construction, history, and playing style.At Impact Soundworks, we strive to sample and develop virtual instruments beyond the standard Western repertoire, and the Koron collection is our most extensive fulfillment of that goal yet. We invite you to explore the sounds of Iran's traditional instruments and look forward to hearing your compositions.
