Kong Audio Present The First Complete Chinese Orchestra Library.
POWERED BY
ChineeErHu I:
Being here, to be there
Erhu is a bowed instrument with two strings, originally
dated back to Tang Dynasty(7th century A.D.), and is still
being widely used today all over China in all kinds of
music, from movie scores to opera. It's one of the most
representative classical Chinese instruments nowadays.
It's also very popular in the whole Asia.
Erhu has a special synthetic flavour which is drastically
different from the Western violin. Whilst violin sounds like
a splendid soprano in a grand musical, Erhu tells her life
story in a hoarse tone from the dark alley. This gives Erhu
an unique sound character that's like nothing else.
For the musicians who are after the purist Chinese sound,
ChineeErhu is a must-have. For the musicians who are
after exotic and inspirational string sound, ChineeErhu fits
the need as well.
ChineeErhu contains extensive expressions of legato, vibrato, F-p-F,
staccatos, pizzicato, tremolos, glide and trills, cleverly woven and
programmed to be used with MIDI aftertouch/modwheel, along with the
keyswitch feature provided by the plugin, to bring the users the most
lively articulations as easily accessible as possible.
ChineeErHu II:
Professional excellency
Kong Audio recorded the
sessions with a
distinguished Erhu
musician, Mr. YuSheng
Liu(who has won in
several national/provincial
Erhu competitions), to
capture the nuance and
brilliance of various
delicate Erhu playing
techniques.
The Brand-new
Brilliance
ChineeErhu II is a brand-
new recording of an Erhu
fiddle and it is developed
based on the feedback of
our highly acclaimed
ChineeErhu. With all-new
approaches to the
mic'ings, plus the planned
integration with Kong
Audio's QIN engine, this
time the focus is on the more realistic legato playability and the clarity
of sound. More Importantly, ChineeErhu II's sound character is much
more cleaner, yet more mellow. It is more suitable for melancholic
tunes with this incarnation.
ChineeErhu II contains extensive expressions of legato, vibrato, F-p-F,
staccatos, pizzicato, tremolos, glide and trills, cleverly woven and
programmed, the users now can play smooth legato performances
easily.

ChineeErhu and ChineeErhu II.
*Special note: Comparison.
ChineeErhu and ChineeErhu II have very different sound characters.
ChineeErhu comes off with a much stronger and thicker sound, whilst
ChineeErhu II sounds smoother and more clearer, yet much more
mellower. Each can have a place for different contexts, and
complements each other. Chinee Erhu II is indeed improved greatly in
the base design and the playability category though. Having said that,
some seasoned composers prefer the sound of ChineeErhu for its
instantly recognizable roughness, which is the trademark of Erhu.
