A Versatile Vocal Collection
With VoxPlay, even beginners can add vocal chops, solos, and phrases to their productions without diving into complex editing. The library includes over 775 samples and 72 vocal sets, providing you with a vast range of creative options.
This library doesn’t aim for a “natural” vocal sound—instead, it brings a processed, stylized vibe akin to chopped and manipulated vocal tracks, ready-made for contemporary production styles. Here’s what you’ll find:
- Contemporary Vocals: Ideal for hip-hop, EDM, and pop, featuring vocal chops, keys, and glides.
- Thematic Sets: Long vocal articulations designed for ambient and cinematic music.
- Exotic Takes: Processed world and folk vocal performances that bring unique character.
Design and Interface
VoxPlay’s aesthetic has a retro, hardware sampler vibe, featuring soft blue-violet colors and vintage-style knobs. The interface keeps things simple, with intuitive controls:
- Adjustable Parameters: Control attack, release, pitch, sample start, and more.
- 3-Band EQ & Legato Mode: Shape your sound and add smooth transitions.
- Volume and Filter Sequencers: Create rhythmic movement for added excitement.
- Built-in FX: One-knob controls for delay, phaser, and reverb simplify the sound design process.
Important Details
VoxPlay runs within the full version of Kontakt and is not compatible with the free Kontakt Player. Make sure you have the right software to take full advantage of this library.
Only available until November 17, so don’t miss out on this chance to add VoxPlay to your collection for free!
