Soniccouture Nyckelharpa

I’ve been a huge fan of Soniccouture sample libraries for a long time now, and own many of them.

Add that to my Scandinavian obsession and I was thrilled to learn they were releasing a Nyckelharpa library. The nyckelharpa is Sweden’s national instrument, an folk string instrument that uses keys to change the pitch, rather than using the fingers. It’s a beautiful instrument and Soniccouture have done a great job of capturing its spirit.

I got the chance to be a beta tester for the library and also provide some of the numerous sound design presets that come with it.

Check it out the Nyckelharpa at the Soniccouture website.
