Lap Harp

Lap Harp - Glänzende, schimmernde Metallsaiten

Die Lap Harp ist ein Musikinstrument aus Osteuropa, auch bekannt als „Perepyolochka", was wörtlich übersetzt "Kleine Wachtel" bedeutet. Aufgrund seiner einfachen Spielbarkeit ist es bei Musikanfängern sehr beliebt.

Detaillierte Beschreibung in englischer Sprache:

Cinematique Instruments recorded the Lap Harp with 3 Articulations, 4 Round Robins and 2 Velocities at a low volume. They chose a plectrum, thumb plucking, and a piano hammer for the articulations. As a microphone, we chose a Schoeps condenser. Cinematique Instruments positioned it pretty close to the strings to get a direct and detailed sound. As an additional gimmick, we implemented a Glissando and a Tremolo function via the script, which affects the midi behavior and enables you to get a step closer to the natural playability of the actual instrument.

Furthermore, Cinematique Instruments added several effects such as reverb control, lo- & hi-cut, drive and rotary. All of it expands the entire sound of the Lap Harp and gives you some further options to kick-start your creative process. Finally, they also included an arpeggiator and a step sequencer.


Cinematique Instruments came out with an instrument that enriches your music with a lovely organic feel, whether you use it as a solo or just as a background instrument.
