Waterharp v3

About SOUNDIRON Waterharp v3

The SOUNDIRON Waterharp v3 is a deeply multi-sampled percussion and effects instrument library that captures the essence of the waterphone, originally developed by Richard Waters in the late 1960s. This unique instrument features a brass vessel with a hollow water chamber and a long neck, adorned with vertical brass tines or bars. It is played by strumming, striking, and bowing these tines, producing darkly harmonic or dissonant tones and textures.

• Comprehensive sampling with various mallets, sticks, metal rods, fingers, palms, bows, and even voices
• Recorded both empty and filled with water, including hydrophone captures from inside the instrument
• Upgraded user interface with a flexible four-layer GUI, per-layer LFO, filter, and arpeggiator
• Modular FX rack panel featuring 27 different DSP effects and 20 new custom FX presets
• Over 100 bonus pads, soundscapes, and atmospheres

Ideal for suspense and horror soundtracks, the Waterharp v3 offers a wide selection of creative presets, ambiences, and sound-designed pads, all with an intuitive GUI for Kontakt and Decent Sampler.
