The IYTTIW modified trumpet sample set from Les Productions Zvon

In wav, sfz, Native Instruments Kontakt 3.5 (full version, not the free Player) formats.

IYTTIW stands for "If You Think This Is Weird".
I played and recorded some trumpet and made samples from the performance.  Then I processed the 
samples to alter their timbral and spectral quality. In some of them you can still hear the 
trumpet and in others you would not know their origin.

What really makes these sounds unique is the fact that even when they do sound synthesized, they 
retain the pitch modulations of the original trumpet performance which would be impossible to 
reproduce with a standard synthesizer thus most of this set is not perfectly in tune. Most of 
the basic programs are usually a bit flat ans some of them are more SFX than tuned instruments.

The set contains 41 basic multi-sampled programs without velocity layers that are common to all 
formats. They are all short sounds, no pads here. It's very well-suited for keyboard runs and 
sequences.

The Kontakt 3.5 version additionally has 21 multis and 50 instruments in the "Stretch Me" folder 
made with the Tone and Time machines. These stretched instruments usually have longer durations
than the basic samples. 14 of them have sustain indicated by (sus) in their names.

INSTALLATION

The archive contains 2 folders: Kontakt 3, sfz.
The wav files are in the "IYTTIW samples" folder, itself in the "Kontakt 3" folder.

_______________________________
- Kontakt: users only have to copy the "IYTTIW" folder that contains the nki files and 3 sub-
  folders wherever they want on their hard drive.

_______________________________
- sfz: The sfz files have the following path instruction: default_path=IYTTIW samples
  
  This means that you have to create a "Zvon IYTTIW" folder and copy in it the definition files 
  and the samples folder (IYTTIW samples).
  
  This works fine with many VSTis like Cakewalk Rapture and Samplelord.  But I found out that when 
  I tried to load them in the freeware sfz player, even though the definition files were loading, 
  the samples were not. The workaround is to copy the sfz definition files in the samples folder 
  with the wav files and load them from this new location. Then the files play correctly in the 
  sfz player.
