The close mics are almost fully dry, offering an intimate ‘studio’ sound when soloed. The Dulciano was recorded in a modern concert hall environment (the same hall as many of our other libraries), and includes three configurable microphone positions, providing a great level of flexibility for placing the instrument in your mix. Continuous, sustained rolls are triggered by bringing up the mod wheel, or by using your keyboard’s aftertouch (channel pressure). The highest velocities trigger short one-shot rolls – an articulation commonly used in dulcimer music. We captured multiple dynamics, controlled by velocity. The instrument also has a much wider playable range than a standard dulcimer or cimbalom (A0 to E6).Īs with all our libraries, the goal of this instrument was to make it as easy to play as possible. This unique hybrid instrument produces a similar timbre to a dulcimer or cimbalom, but the longer strings and large soundboard of the piano gives the instrument a richer tone and longer sustain. The Dulciano is a grand piano performed with dulcimer hammers.
