Abstract

Welcome to the Spotlight Collection: Ireland online manual. Find out how to use all features in detail and create your own sounds and patterns.

From the haunting echoes of uilleann pipes to the spirited twang of the banjo, Spotlight Collection: Ireland delivers 11 traditional Irish instruments, captured in the heart of Milltown Malbay with renowned musician Noel Hill.

Spotlight Collection: Ireland includes pipes, fiddles, and flutes, each enriched with ornaments and articulations that define the rich tapestry of Irish folk. True legato samples capture the nuanced expression of each instrument, from the soulful song of the Irish flute and tin whistle to the rhythmic dance of the bow across the fiddle.

Each instrument contains a range of snapshots featuring six MIDI phrases that help you quickly audition sounds and enhance your performances. You can simply select a scale and root note, and the MIDI phrases will be mapped to the corresponding notes.

Polyphonic aftertouch support adds heightened realism to performances, and intuitive studio controls, including EQ, compression, and panning, let you mix your instrument arrangements directly in Spotlight Collection: Ireland.
