domestic or popular sounds are ready for your music.
Ensemblia was built to easily create beautiful polyphonic music and rhythmic arrangements. We didnt recorded phrases, a powerful
arranger will do it. Ensemblia can layer up to 7 instruments at the same time and gives you a quick access to a broad range of timbres
and tone colors.
Ensemblia 2 - less update, more evolution
We don ́t see Ensemblia 2 as an update – we like to call it evolution! Ensemblia 2 was mainly rebuilt from scratch – we have written
a complete new script with new features but also have included some parts of the old scripts such as the voicing engine. We like to start
to unveil the new Ensemblia2 concept with the release of a percussion flavor called PERCUSSIVE, followed by exclusive and unique
expansion packs such as Elektronika.

known and admired for his enduring contribution to the Australian contemporary music landscape and his original blending of Asian and
Western sounds.
While recording the instruments we set our focus on a close and intimate sound - we waived recording in a crazy hall
acoustic. This is what you can add afterwards :) You find the the full instruments list in the manual

Multi Beat Engine
The arranger was rebuilt from scratch and is now an 8 beat arranger. Each beat can be independently divided into either 4 x 16th notes,
8 x 32nd notes, 3 x 8th notes (triplet) or 6 x 16th notes (sextuplet). Beside that the arranger has become quicker and more complex in
terms of the potential dynamic or velocity applied to each note.
Beat Arsenal
Ensemblia2 Percussive comes with over 600 pre-assembled beats which are easily selectable via a file browser
4 Units in 1
Ensemblia2 comes with four separate units in one GUI. This lets you easily switch between four individual units with different beats and
rhythms on the fly.
Live FX
Ensemblia2 comes along with 5 additional efects which can be easily dropped in by just pressing a key. This all happens
live and gives you the option to change the sound of your rhythms while they are running.
Single Instruments
Beside the master percussive patch, the Ensemblia2 package also consists of 10 further patches. These patches are single
instruments patches which gather all the instrument groups. This enables you to load exclusively your choice of instruments group into your DAW
such as just snares or just shaker etc.
Trigger Keys
Beside playing a beat via the arranger, you are also able to play the corresponding percussion instruments manually. This expands the
possibilities of Ensemblia2. You can simply add certain instrument fgures to your beat or just play the beat directly manually and
record it to your DAW.
