These instruments are brought to life with tempo‑synced and ITM‑based grouping and mapping for all melodic performance elements, allowing the library to integrate seamlessly with modern DAW workflows.
Delphi is divided into three primary sample groups, selectable via the main user interface:
Recorded in pristine high-resolution formats and optimized for performance.
: Features reconstructed Greek instruments and melodies based on ancient notation. Vocal Components Sonokinetic-Delphi-KONTAKT
The vocal content is breathtaking in its historical scope. It includes:
Delphi’s specialized nature makes it an essential tool for specific scoring needs:
Over 1,500 individual samples totaling more than 1.3 GB of uncompressed data. These instruments are brought to life with tempo‑synced
The sonic character of Delphi is distinct. It avoids the pristine, close-miked clarity of modern pop vocal libraries in favor of a "wider," more integrated sound. The recording captures a genuine hall sound, imbuing the samples with a natural reverb that suggests the marble acoustics of a temple or an amphitheater.
: Features Greek classically-trained vocalist Veronica Iliopoulou .
: Includes Krotala Dio (finger cymbals), Krotala Delphi (finger bells), Megalon Tympanon, Tympanon, and Roptron. Technical Specifications Vocal Components The vocal content is breathtaking in
This is the visual interface where the magic happens. A grid of 16 steps (or 32 in half-time mode) shows you the generated rhythm and pitch contour. You can "re-roll" the generation with a simple mouse click, or even draw your own melodies by clicking on the grid squares. This hybrid approach gives you the speed of AI generation with the precision of manual editing.
The vision for Delphi arose from a desire to capture the foundational roots of Western music, drama, and performance. For centuries, our modern artistic muse has been shaped by the early Greek arts and theaters, yet the actual sounds of that era have remained largely a mystery to contemporary ears. Sonokinetic set out to change that by painstakingly reconstructing many of the authentic instruments of the period, working alongside renowned, Greek classically‑trained vocalist Veronica Iliopoulou, who poured her heart and expertise into the project.
