Hellen 是一款基于 Kontakt 的音色库,以幽灵般的嗓音和各种生物的声音为主题。S+OS 与歌手 Alessandra Cognetta(又名 Psamathes)合作,录制了多种人声风格:歌剧/女高音(多重采样)、尖叫、耳语、咆哮、喘息、呐喊,以及多种有调性和无调性的人声层,还有各种各样的环境音效,从动物录音到金属摩擦声和弓弦音效,应有尽有。
它们大多经过先进的声音设计技术处理(例如 Kyma 中的频谱变形、共振峰和元音处理等),创造出种类繁多的声音:女高音的质感和层次、恶魔般的尖叫、令人回味的哀嚎和嚎叫、令人不安的笑声、精心设计的生物音效、空灵的低语、难以捉摸的断句、怪物的咆哮和嘶吼、令人毛骨悚然的尖叫和嘶吼、呼吸循环(节奏同步),甚至还有受古拉丁语启发而创作的虚构语言的音节和短语。
Hellen 中的所有 12 种乐器(可演奏和音效设计)都特别适合恐怖和惊悚领域;它们的设计和开发旨在满足现代作曲家和氛围音乐制作人的需求,从营造闹鬼场景的人声质感,到用于制造有效惊吓效果和震撼人心的声音效果的恐怖人声突刺。

乐器
01:人声纹理
人声纹理是一款可演奏的乐器,它基于两个独立的
音调和无调性人声层(L1 和 L2),可以
通过用户界面中直观的主面板进行混合、滤波和变形。每个层都具有截止频率、共振、低频振荡器 (LFO) 和音量包络控制。借助实用的“人声变形”旋钮,可以轻松地从任意选定的声音组合中创建有趣的音色。人声纹理包含 56 个 Kontakt 快照。
02 至 08 – One Shot SFX
Hellen 包含 7 种 One Shot SFX 乐器,按声音类别划分:
尖叫、哀嚎、生物、低语、怪物咆哮、尖叫、喘息。
Hellen 中的单次 SFX 音效乐器支持对每个采样的所有参数(音量、音高、低通滤波器、高通滤波器、LFO 和音量包络、正向/反向播放)进行控制,此外,还可以通过“全局控制”窗口全局控制任何参数。使用“扩展”开关,您可以沿着键盘以半音阶的方式演奏任何选定的采样。
09 至 10 – 音节/呼吸序列
Hellen 包含两个声音序列器/构建器:音节序列器和呼吸序列器。它们都允许对节奏同步的短音节组进行排序,从而创建长而有节奏的口语短语和/或呼吸序列。
音节序列器基于一种虚构的语言,该语言偶尔类似于古拉丁语,而呼吸序列器则包含短促的呼吸声。在这两个乐器中,两个特色音色都可以逐步独立激活/停用。所有音节均以 70 bpm 的速度录制,并使用 Kontakt (HQ) 中的 Time Machine Pro 进行处理,因此 bpm 的变化不会影响音质。
11 – Vocalise Builder
Hellen 中的 Vocalise Builder 是一款声音设计工具,旨在
轻松创建自定义的恶魔和生物般的声音。
它基于 3 个独立的图层,每个图层都包含未经处理的原始声音,
以提供有用的素材并为创意实验留出空间。
只需按下虚拟键盘上的绿色键,即可将这 3 个图层自动堆叠在一起。
每个图层都可以以常规采样播放或时间伸缩模式播放,并可控制时间伸缩量和共振峰。通过使用多种随机化选项,可以快速创建有趣的音效组合和自定义音效。
12 – 呼吸循环
Hellen 中的呼吸循环乐器具有
与 DAW 主速度自动同步的节奏同步循环(原始速度为 70 bpm)。通过使用半速和共振峰控制(每个采样独立控制),可以改变声音的时值和音色,从而创建紧张的人声节奏。

Hellen is a Kontakt library based on ghostly voices and creatures sounds. S+OS have teamed up with vocalist Alessandra Cognetta a.k.a. Psamathes to record a variety of vocal styles: operatic/soprano (multisampled), screams, whispers, growls, gasps, yells plus several tonal and atonal vocal layers and a variety of found sounds ranging from animal recordings to metallic friction and bowed effects.
Most of them have been processed with advanced sound design techniques (spectral morph in Kyma, formant and vowel processing etc.) to create a huge variety of sounds: soprano textures and layers, demoniac screams, evocative laments and howling sounds, unsettling laughs, designed creatures effects, ethereal whisperings , elusive broken sentences, monster growls and vocalizations, hair-raising screeches and shrieks, breathing loops (tempo synched) and even syllables and phrases in a fictional language inspired to ancient Latin.
All the 12 instruments in Hellen (playable and sound design) fit particularly well the horror and thriller realm; they have been conceived and developed to cover the needs of the modern composer and ambient producer, from the vocal textures evoking scenes of haunted settings, to terrifying vocal stabs to create effective jump scares and impactful vocal effects.

The Instruments
01: Vocal Textures
Vocal Textures is a playable instrument based on two independent layers (L1 and
L2) of vocal tonal and atonal sounds that can be blended, filtered and
morphed from the intuitive main panel in the UI. Each layer features cutoff, resonance, LFO and Volume Envelope controls. With the useful VOCAL MORPH knob it is possible to easily create interesting sonic combinations from any chosen pair of sounds. Vocal Textures feature 56 Kontakt snapshots.
02 to 08 – One Shot SFX
Hellen features 7 One Shot SFX instruments, divided by category of sounds:
Screams, Laments-Howlings, Creatures, Whispers-Sentences, MonsterGrowls, Shrieks-Screeches, Gasps-Yells.
The One Shot SFX instruments in Hellen feature a per-sample control on any parameter (Volume, Pitch, Low Pass Filter, High Pass Filter, LFO and Volume Envelope, Straight/Reverse play), plus the possibility to globally control any parameter by using the ‘Global Controls’ window. By using the Extend switch, you can play any chosen sample chromatically along the keyboard.
09 to 10 – Syllables / Breath Sequences
Hellen features two vocal sequencers/builders: the Syllables Sequencer and the Breath Sequencer. They both allow to sequence short groups of tempo synched syllables and create a long, rhythmical spoken phrase and/or breathing sequence.
The Syllables Sequencer is based on a fictional language occasionally resembling ancient Latin, whereas the Breath Sequencers features short breathing sounds. In both instruments, the two featured voices can be independently activated/deactivated per step. All the syllables have been recorded at 70 bpm and use the Time Machine Pro in Kontakt (HQ), so the quality of the sound is not compromised by bpm changes.
11 – Vocalise Builder
The Vocalise Builder in Hellen is a sound design instrument conceived and
developed to easily create customized demonic and creature-esque voices.
It is based on 3 independent layers featuring dry and less designed sounds in in
order to provide useful source material and allow room for creative experimentation.
The 3 layers can be automatically stacked on the top of each other by simply
pressing the green key on the virtual keyboard. Each layer can be played either with a regular sample playback or in Time Stretch mode, with control on the amount of time stretch and formants. By using the several randomization options, it is possible to quickly create interesting combinations of sounds and customized sound effects.
12 – Breathing Loops
The Breath Loops instrument in Hellen features tempo synched loops (original
tempo 70 bpm) automatically synched to the master tempo in the DAW. By using the Half Tempo and Formant controls (independent per each sample) it is possible to alter the timing and the gender of the voice and creating tensive vocal rhythms.
