The koto is a traditional musical instrument that has been used in Japan for more than 1300 years. The koto is the national instrument of Japan, also known as the “Japanese Harp”. Koto is about 180 centimetres (71 in) in length and is made from Kiri wood (Paulownia wood). They have 13 strings that are usually strung over 13 movable bridges along the width of the instrument. To play the instrument, the strings are plucked using three finger picks (thumb, index finger, and middle finger). Players can adjust the string pitches by moving the white bridges before playing. The 13 notes are tuned to a non-western pentatonic scale, while it can sound delicate and pretty, using the plectra it can also sound steely cutting edge.
Inside this original brand-new authentic sample pack expect to find one-shots, loops, and processed FX sounds, all labelled with key for total flexibility.
Three patterns are recorded, in order to respond to the different needs:
