Sonic Collective Sounds of Gnawa WAV

Sonic Collective Sounds of Gnawa WAV

Sonic Collective Sounds of Gnawa WAV

The guembri is a plucked three-stringed bass lute made from log and camel skin. Marked by low-toned, highly rhythmic melodies, it is central to Gnawa music, a body of spiritual and hypnotic music from Morocco and parts of sub-Saharan Africa. For this sample collection, Found Sound Nation teamed up with prodigious guembri player Mehdi Nassouli to produce an ecstatic and mesmerizing set of melodies and rhythms performed on guembri, karkabas (a set of hand-held metallic castanets), lira (a traditional bamboo flute), awicha (a smaller version of the guembri), and taarija (a Moroccan hand-held drum similar to Darbuka).

Mehdi Nassouli grew up immersed in Morocco’s Gnawa culture. He learned to play a wide range of instruments at an early age, becoming especially passionate about the guembri. Inspired and surrounded by the sounds of Moroccan musical heritage, Mehdi devoted himself to studying deqqa, a traditional form of art from Taroudant and spent the better part of a decade learning several traditional musical styles across Morocco. Open to the fusion of musical genres, he has since crossed continents, collaborating and performing with many prominent international artists, notably Herbie Hancock, Fatoumata Diawara, Titi Robin, Benjamin Taubkin, and Alpha Blondy, merging traditional African, Amazigh and Gnawa music with sounds of the wider world.

Usually the final mix of a music production does not translate well with all audio devices (e.g. HiFi, car audio, smartphone) at the beginning. To achieve a well balanced audio spectrum in an effective manner is not easy to master!

This is where Euphonia starts:
Euphonia is an optimal audio spectrum balancing plugin which equalizes automatically any audio input based on a few standard average spectrum curves.
These few standard curves have the advantage that they work very well with the majority of audio devices.
Using Euphonia right after the final mix of your music production could eliminate missing low/high end, mixing mistakes, general spectrum balancing problems or even compensate poor listening environment.

Euphonia compares the spectral fingerprint against build-in curves (Pop/Rock/Dance/Jazz/EDM) and calculates filter settings so that the spectrum of the audio follows the selected average spectrum curves.

The effect of Euphonia can be easily verified with any audio spectrum analyzer (e.g. Toscanalyzer, Voxengo Span) which could compare spectrums of two audio files.

Euphonia is also able to create custom reference curves to be used for spectrum balancing. Just load any audio file into the DAW, capture the audio fingerprint and save as custom reference curve.

The spectral adjustment is done in a very gentle way, it does not harm any tonal information but impacts the overall spectrum balance. It also tries to keep the overall loudness.

The picture below shows how Euphonia works (screen shot of a spectrum analyzer). It shows the spectrum curves of original (blue) and processed (red) audio file, the difference curve (green) and the areas where Euphonia2 automatically adjusted the spectrum (yellow):

Features:

  • 4 standard spectrum curves (Pop, Dance, Jazz and EDM)
  • Custom spectrum curves
  • IIR and Linear Phase filter design
  • Free mixing between original and processed signal
  • Adjustable output gain
  • Gain matching
  • Support of WAV and AIFF files
  • 64-bit internal processing
  • Very efficient CPU usage design
  • free GUI scaling

TBProAudio dEQ6V4 v4.1.4 VST VST3 AU AAX [WIN & macOS]

dEQ6 is a 6 band stereo/MS dynamic equalizer with high quality oversampling and accurate spectrum analyzer.

dEQ6 controls the filter gain of each band by a compressor/expander. This reduces or increases the gain in a specific frequency range, depending on the program material. The detector signal for the compressor/expander is processed by a pre filter which is controlled by the centre frequency and Q-factor of the dynamic filter. This ensures that the compressor/expander is only activated by content in the specified frequency range.

On top dEQ6 comes with a new function called AB-LM Lite providing perceptual loudness matching.

Features:

  • 6 independent filter + compressor/expander
  • 3 filter types, analogue design, minimal phase, zero delay
  • many comfort functions to setup multiple bands
  • NEW: independent stereo/left/right/mid/side processing per band
  • side chain support
  • sample rates up to 192 kHz
  • “real” over sampling, up to 4x
  • hi-res spectrum analyzer with 32k FFT
  • pre/post-EQ spectrum, max/average/live spectrum, stereo/left/right/mid/side
