Voice of Wind: Adey Black Friday pricing is 50% off, which brings this Soundiron solo female vocal library for Kontakt to $49.50 until Dec 6, 2026.
It is the first volume in the Voices Of Wind series, built around the mezzo-soprano voice of singer-songwriter Adey Bell. The maker describes her sound as rich, nimble and dusky, with classical, pop, folk, blues, lounge and jazz colours.
The library installs at 2 GB and holds 3,114 samples across 12 master NKI instrument banks. The main chromatic articulations are sustain, staccato and true legato.
Six core vowels are covered:
Staccatos carry 8x round-robin variations per note and span over two playable octaves. Ah, Eh, Ee, Oh and Oo come in piano and forte dynamic layers, while Mm and La have a single dynamic layer. Recorded breaths add realism, and a swell control lets you shape dynamics in real time.
Over a thousand melodic phrases are sorted by style, native tempo and root key. Bright and Dark categories each come at 100bpm and 140bpm, and there is a separate Hummed category at 120bpm.
Tempo-syncing, time-stretching and pitch transposition let you move a phrase away from its root tempo and key. You can also blend phrases with phrase-legato, run them through a step sequencer, change playback speed and edit the live waveform.
The maker also includes 20 sound-designed FX and ambient presets, with vocal ambiences, atmospheres and melodic pad instruments made from Adey's voice.
A multi-FX rack covers chorus, compression, distortion, amp and cab simulation, EQ, delay and reverb. The reverb unit holds 25 creative convolutions and 45 live rooms, studios, chambers, cathedrals and halls, with tone, size and mix controls.
Adey was recorded in a dry studio with a large-diaphragm Neumann microphone and Sound Devices preamps, aiming for detail and clean dynamic range. Everything is automatable, with customisable key switches and GUI controls, and every preset shows a real-time waveform display.
The library is built for the free Kontakt Player 5.5.2 or later, as well as the full retail Kontakt 5.5.2. It is an open-format library, so it does not appear in the Libraries tab. Load it through the Files browser or the Quickload window instead.
The samples are unlocked 24-bit / 48kHz PCM wav files, so you can also pull them into any wav-compatible DAW or software.
It runs on Windows 7 or higher and Mac OSX 10.9 or higher. The maker lists a dual-core CPU, 3 GB of RAM and a SATA or SSD drive, and it ships as a digital download.
Adey Bell is an American vocalist, pianist, film composer and actor from Montana. Her albums are Rogue (2011), Vesica (2013) and Silver Wheel (2018). She stars in and composed the score for the feature film The Last Avatar.
Yes. The Voice of Wind: Adey Black Friday deal takes 50% off this Soundiron Kontakt vocal library, bringing it to $49.50 until Dec 6, 2026. It is a digital download.
It has 3,114 samples in 2 GB across 12 NKI banks. That covers sustain, staccato and true legato for six vowels, over a thousand live phrases, 20 FX and ambient presets, and a full FX rack.
No. The maker designed it for the free Kontakt Player 5.5.2 or later, and it also works in full Kontakt. The unlocked 24-bit / 48kHz wav samples load into any wav-compatible DAW as well.
Phrases are organised by style, native tempo and root key, in Bright and Dark categories at 100bpm and 140bpm plus a 120bpm Hummed set. Tempo-sync, time-stretch and transposition adapt them, and a step sequencer and phrase-legato let you rework them.
