A selection of twelve unique synthetic choirs made up of 215 hand crafted vocal formants.
At least 50% of the samples in this collection were created using little more than a handful
of discrete circuits and vintage lab gear all processed with vintage classic analog and tube
technology and brought together in the same proven 4-voice layering engine as the Orbitone library….


Passive L/C Resonator Formant Circuits based on the 1938 Novachord….

The Celestial Choirs featured in The Pentodian Choir started off life as little more than
a series of short pulses created by an old hand-configured analog lab signal generator.
The frequency of the pulse train was gently modulated using the swept oscillator functio
to act as a vibrato. The pulses were converted into exponential ramps using a passive
wave shaper circuit similar to those found in early string synths and the resulting sawtooth
fed into a Triple Passive L/C Resonator circuit based on the 1938 Novachord formant
resonator section. This is little more than three coils of wire and three capacitors!
The resulting waveform was then impedance buffered using the entire vertical signal
path of a 1968 Tektronix 545B tube oscilloscope! The output from the vertical signal
output socket was then fed into a prototype tube overdrive unit and into a tube equaliser.
