Igneous Electric Cello

A sophisticated virtual cello, recorded at three dynamic layers with three bowing positions and a host of "artisan" articulations. Over our seven month adventure, we recorded a comprehensive range of experimental techniques, to encapsulate the soul and searing talent of electric cellist, Peter Gregson. The perfect introduction to the fiery, powerful electric cello.

The overview panel

This is the main interface for melodic instruments. Its default view displays all available playing techniques, has a simple microphone mixer and includes the main feature controllers.

General controls panel

This view allows further in-depth control of the instrument, showing all available signals and feature controllers, as well as the ability to purge techniques from memory to reduce system usage.

The ostinatum

In this view you can add notes to a pattern sequencer, select which key it triggers on and then play for instant ostinato creation. It’s like an arpeggiator on a synthesiser.
