Cinesamples Dulcimer and Zither KONTAKT

Cinesamples is proud to present our new line of libraries - The WORLD SERIES! The first installment introduces the family of the Dulcimer and Zither, a favored instrument color by composers throughout the ages and around the globe. Recorded at the famous Firehouse Recording Studios in Los Angeles, and mixed by esteemed engineer Tim Starnes, the Dulcimer and Zither library will add stunning brilliance and color to any scoring palette.

The Cinesamples WORLD SERIES: Dulcimer & Zither is unmatched in its sound and simplicity due to the choice of instruments and recording technique. The library was designed by composers, for composers, with direct feedback from the film music community during its development. The result is a library that is easy to use, composer-friendly, and sounds professionally mixed right out of the box without being too demanding on studio hardware.

The library was meticulously recorded and engineered by Tim Starnes, one of the most seasoned and sought-after music editors and recording engineers within the film scoring business. He has worked with most of the current and former A-list composers of Hollywood. His credits include productions such as King Kong (2005), The Lord of the Rings II & III (2002, 2003), The Aviator (2004), The Departed (2006), Remember Me (2010), Twilight: Eclipse (2010), Hugo (2011), and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close (2011). Tim Starnes' presence at the composition, recording, and mixing phases of the score gave him the unique understanding needed to faithfully emulate the sound of Hollywood. After previous successful collaborations such as “Drums of War," Cinesamples is proud to once again be fortunate enough to have him as a recording engineer on this library.
