Organic Loops is proud to present the Classical Indian Sitar, a deep and expressive collection of cultural expressions masterfully played by a leading Indian session sitar player and recorded and processed in Chennai by our beloved Indian music guru K.V. Bala Krishnan.
The classic Indian sitar is your gateway to an abundance of authentic sitar melodic lines and phrases, with loops covering a range of keys, tempos and playing styles to ensure you get the sounds you want.
What’s more, a set of glissandos has been included to add interest to your transitions and breakdowns, and an exclusive multisampled sitar instrument has been included, so you can translate your own ideas on this prestigious instrument from the comfort of your chosen MIDI instrument.
You’ll find 588MB of content with 187 individual Wav files recorded at 24-bit and 44.1kHz. These are divided into 36 sitar loops at 170 bpm, 35 sitar loops at 140 bpm, 31 sitar loops at 90 bpm, and 31 sitar loops at 120 bpm. Also included are 12 Harp Runs and 1 Sitar Multi.
Producer Tips: These sounds are super clean, so feel free to process them in some really crazy ways. The ultra-wide chorus sounds fantastic on loops where the sympathetic strings are heard, and some good old stereo or tape delay sounds amazing on these samples.
Whether you work in music, film, television or broadcasting, the Classical Indian Sitar brings the beauty of culture and world to your compositions and scores in the blink of an eye.
