OVERVIEW
Welcome to Liberis - Angelic Choir
LIBERIS features the professional 45-piece multi-award
winning Piedmont Children’s Choir lead by famous choir
conductor, Bob Geary from VOLTI.
LIBERIS is the successor to our Requiem Pro choral library.
It is similar in many ways by building and improving on
existing concepts (ex. introducing portamento), but it is
also a contrast in the sense it is a more angelic, clean and
youthful sound. Requiem was the epic choir and Liberis
is the angelic choir. However make no mistake that this
library can sound scary and dark.The concept of “children’s
choir” does not do the library any justice.
We regard the choir as an organic texture and you can
sculpt anything from light to darkness, soft to brutally
loud with this library.
LIBERIS allows you to create audio-realistic sounding choir
arrangements by using a variety of included features,
including true legato and portamento with velocity based
speed control our infintely useful Multi Vowel chants.
In addition we included sustains from piano to forte,
staccato with repetitions, marcato with sustains, BPM
(host-synced) latin chants recorded at different speeds and
velocity layers and a uncompromising effects section with
hundreds of effects ranging from basic consonant/vowels,
clusters, sweeps, whispers, shouts, chirps, childrens songs,
claps, snaps etc. In addition the library is recorded in 24 bit
/ 44.1khz with 3 microphone positions, three different solo
singers with poly-sustains, true legato.
Liberis was recorded over a two week period in one of our
favorite recording destinations (church) in Piedmont, Bay
Area, California.

MAIN SCREEN
The Main Screen contains all the vital controls in
order to shape the core mechanics of the sound, from
patch selection and mixer controls to our front face
effects. Everything is right there at your fingertips.
To stack sounds activate the “link button”.
*NOTE - You can always reset a control to its default
value by simply using (CMD + Click).

articulation menu
The articulation menu allows you to select the
playable articulation by simply clicking the name of
the desired sound.
Furthermore you can use the included controls
within each cell to alter the volume of each
articulation, save valuable system resources by
loading and unloading sounds from RAM. And of
course, select the desired control method for
articulation switching by simply clicking the small
keyboard icon, and choosing the preferred method.
SEQUENCER & MODULATION
When active a sequencer or modulation LFO allows
you to program automation.
TIME - Alters the time signature of the sequence.
RANDOM - Generates a random pattern.
RESET - Brings the sequence back to its default
pattern.
x2 - Doubles the speed of the available LFO.

SOUND CONTROLS
The Sound Control section allows you to finely
adjust various sound shaping parameters by using
our dual dial control system. Both A & B layers can
be controlled independently.
PANORAMA - Alters the Pan and the Stereo Width
Pan of the outputted sound.
AMP ENV - Alters the Attack and the Decay of the
played instruments volume envelope.
PITCH ENV - Alters the Range and the Speed of the
pitch envelope.
SOUND CONTROLS pt.2
FILTER ENV - Alters the Attack and the Decay of the
selected filter envelope.
SHAPE - Alters the transient shape of Body and the Hit
for the outputted signal.
DYNAMICS - Adjusts the played Dynamic [CC1] and
the Response curve of the available sound.
RANDOM - Randomises the available controls.
RESET - Restores the controls back to their default
settings.

FRONT FACE EFFECTS
MICROPHONES - Allows you to access mixer
functionality such as volume control, solo/mute,
and purge. Purging allows you to load and un load
positions from RAM freeing up valuable system
resources.
FILTER - Allows quick access to the selected master
filters found in the neighbouring dropdown menu.
GATE - Offers trance gate functions for both
Mix, Pattern and Rate (via the dropdown menu).
PITCH - Allows for both course and fine global
tuning of the selected patch preset.
FRONT FACE EFFECTS pt.2
DELAY - Allows quick access to the delay found on the
effects page.
COMP - Allows quick access to a gain matched
compressor on the master bus.
FORM - Allows quick access to the Transform
convolution reverb foundo n the effects page.
EQ - Offers quick front page access to the multi bad
equaliser found on the effects page.
RANDOM - Randomises the activated effects.
RESET - Restores the effects back to their default
settings.

Options
Clicking the Options Cog located towards to top
right of the instruments screen will bring you to the
Options page. From here you can control the
following basic functions.
KEY - Select the lowest key at which you would like
the articulation keyswitches to begin.
CC - Select the CC (Continuous Controller) you
would like to alter the currenlty selected
articulation.
RELEASES - From here you can either bypass or
activate release triggers.

KEY MAPPING
The BLUE keys represent the playable multisamples
in their natural range.
When activated, keyswitches are available towards
the lower end of the keyboard are shown in RED.

The Effects Engine is perhaps
our most elaborate feature.
We wanted to take the
concept of chance and
extreme tweakability and
port it to our user-interface.
effects
The Effects page consists of multiple rack effects. To
reset any effect to its default position, simply select
the appropriate “Default“ option from the preset
dropdown menu.

PHASER controls the dual Phaser and Flanger module. Allowing you to modulate and move and sound source passed through
it. MIX controls the volume of the processed audio (Dry/Wet) whereas DEPTH allows you to control the amount or strength of
the applied modulation. SPEED controls the frequency of the modulation. COLOR controls the tone of the applied modulation,
and FEED allows you to adjust the feedback within the Flanger portion of the module.
We also have included a CHAOS control, this allows you to randmise every value, which is extremely useful for creating out new
and interesting sounds.

EQ controls an 3 band Equaliser, we have included a handful of useful presets to help you in scullpting your sound. We also
have included a CHAOS control, this allows you to randmise every value, which is extremely useful for carving out new and
interesting sounds.
The Settings page consists of a few vital controls to help control the CHAOS switch. Such as MOTION, which constantly
randomises and animates every relevant parameter. RANGE which alters the amount of randomisation under both MOTION
and CHAOS. And the CHAOS / FLOW switch which changes the type of randmisation available. CHAOS is purely random based
on a value below your current settings and the RANGE, whereas FLOW analyses and adjusts your current settings depending
on your RANGE allowing you to have a more subtle evolution of randomisation.

DEGRADER consists of a BIT CRUSHER and a DISTORTION unit. Of course we also have included a CHAOS control, which
allows you to randmise every value, which is extremely useful for carving out new and interesting sounds.
The Settings page consists of a few vital controls to help control the CHAOS switch. Such as MOTION, which constantly
randomises and animates every relevant parameter. RANGE which alters the amount of randomisation under both MOTION
and CHAOS. And the CHAOS / FLOW switch which changes the type of randmisation available. CHAOS is purely random based
on a value below your current settings and the RANGE, whereas FLOW analyses and adjusts your current settings depending
on your RANGE allowing you to have a more subtle evolution of randomisation.

DELAY consists of 2 sequential delays, this allows you to build complex rhythms and sequences by simply using different time
values. Each delay has a wet MIX parameter, a tempo synced TIME control, and FEEDBACK and PAN controls to help control the
style and poer of the delay. We also went a step further, and added a a LOW and HIGH PASS filter to the end of the chain, this
allows you to filter out certain frequencies only in the feedback of the delay ensuring it doesn’t conflict with your main sound.
And, you guessed it, we included a CHAOS control, so you are able to randomise every relevant parameter, creating some truly
amazing delay patterns. Both delays and the filters also work intelligently, meaning if you are not using them or they are set to
a minimal value, they will bypass themselves in order to save your CPU load.

TRANSFORM contains a powerful impulse convolution with some truly strange and wonderful presets. To change what
convolution is loaded, simply select the preset dropdown menu, and load any of our hand designed impulse responses. From
fog horns, to car crashes, engine revs to world ending drones, we have included a handful of our favourite custom recorded
and designed presets. If you are feeling indesisive, you can also select the CHAOS control, which will randomly assign a preset
for you, as well as alter the available controls for some truly esoteric results. The included controls can help you further shape
the convolution, such as MIX which alters the wet value of the insert, SIZE which stretches or compresses the impulse,
PRE-DELAY which adds a small delay before the impulse is triggered, and of course a HIGH and LOW PASS FILTER, which
allows you to shape the frequency of the impulse convolution layer.

REVERB contains a powerful convolution reverb partnered with a digital reverb. To change what convolution is loaded,
simply select the preset dropdown menu, and load any of our custom recorded impulse responses. We have included a
variety, of real acoustic spaces we use and love, such as recording studios, churches, cathedrals and halls. As well as a few not
so acoustic spaces we equally love. We have also crafted a quick and useful room positioner tool, by clicking anywhere in the
“ROOM” area you can access a variety of crafted presets which load custom settings ontop of your chosen convolution reverb.
This is a great tool for quickly placing your sound in designed space. Or of course you can select the CHAOS control and let the
engine do the choosing for you.
The included controls are similar as to the TRANSFORM module except REVERB has a digital counterpart. This can be bypassed
by using the DIGITAL ON/OFF switch.
