The Voice of Gaia: Bryn Black Friday deal takes 50% off this Soundiron male tenor solo vocal library for Kontakt, so it comes to $59.50 until Dec 6, 2026.
The voice belongs to Bryan Lane, known as Bryn. He trained in operatic technique, but his own style pulls from older and broader traditions, inspired in equal parts by Middle-Eastern music and American Spiritual and Gospel.
The maker describes the delivery as dark and passionate.
The library is over 6GB and 7816 samples, recorded in a close studio setup. Soundiron used large-diaphragm Neumann microphones and Sound Devices preamps for detail and clarity.
The core is true legato vowel sustains for Ah, Oo, Humming ("mmm") and Whistling. There are also chromatic sustains for Oh and a gliding-attack vibrato Uh vowel.
Staccatos cover Ah, Oh, Oo, Uh, Humming and Whistling. Most of the chromatic content spans D2 to D4, extended from C2 to G4.
The live melodic phrases come in three styles:
Each main phrase category has a full set for every key from A through G#. The library also includes whistled melodies set in E and B major, along with freely improvised vocal lines in an Arabian style that sit in E and B minor.
Every phrase preset offers pitch transposition, tempo-syncing, step sequencing and song switching, plus dozens of other custom controls.
The instrument has a full FX rack with chorus, compression, distortion, amp and cab simulation, EQ, delay and reverb. The reverb unit holds 25 creative FX convolutions and 45 real-world rooms, studios, chambers, cathedrals and halls, with tone, size and mix controls.
A swell control shapes dynamics in real time. Breaths and vocal effects are included. Every preset shows a waveform display, and everything is automatable with customizable key switches and GUI controls.
The download holds 23 Kontakt.nki presets and 24 bit / 48kHz uncompressed PCM wav audio. Presets and samples are unlocked for customization, and a PDF manual is included.
This is an open-format library that needs the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt. The maker lists Kontakt 6.2.2 or later for the.nki presets. The free Kontakt Player does not support it, and neither does the Libraries tab. Use the File browser tab or add it to the Kontakt database and Quickload.
The maker lists Windows 7 or higher or Mac OSX 10.7 or higher, a dual core CPU and 2GB of RAM. A SATA or SSD drive is recommended.
Yes. The Voice of Gaia: Bryn Black Friday deal takes 50% off, bringing the Soundiron Kontakt library to $59.50. The offer ends Dec 6, 2026.
It holds 7816 samples across 6.06 GB, installed as 23 Kontakt.nki presets. Content includes legato and chromatic vowel sustains, staccatos, live melodic phrases in three styles, breaths, effects, a Multi-FX rack and a PDF manual.
No. It is an open-format library, so the free Kontakt Player and the Libraries tab don't support it. You need the full retail version of Kontakt, and the maker lists 6.2.2 or later for the.nki presets.
Each phrase preset has pitch transposition, tempo-syncing, step sequencing and song switching, plus dozens of other custom controls. Phrases cover Pure Vowel, Middle-Eastern and American Southern gospel and spiritual styles in every key.
