THE CONCEPT
Interval Les Femmes features two main issues: the kind and unique selection of sound sources (samples) and an unqiue instrument engine to create harmonies.
„Les femmes“- french translated „the women“ is what it says and beyond. In order to achieve a fragile and intimate vocal or choir color we recorded the voices of three incredible artists, each one with different musical background such as jazz, pop and experimental.
Each voice was recorded in several articulations: regular intimate notes, chanting and breathing, and each articulations was recorded in several individual variations.
The result is astonishing. Along with the powerful and unique engine of interval stacking, you get a strong choir instrument which lets you easily create many different voice sounds and colors such as deep choirs, intimate background voices, modern pop patterns, unique voice harmonies or experimental mumbling. But the best way to use Les Femmes is to find out your own way to use this instrument.

THE STRUCTURE
The fundament of Interval are four separate sound slots which can be simultaneously played. Just click on the slot name to select one of the three voices and its variations to set up your favourite mix of sounds. Each sound can be used only once.
In order to shape the overall sound there are a lot of tools available: attack/ release time, increase/ decrease of the highs and lows, three delays with adjustable feedback, a reverb and and an LFO which works separately for the four sound slots.
After creating your sound, you can now spread the four sound slots separately to each interval step. Just click on the interval nodes to activate or deactivate the corresponding interval. Each interval step has also a separate volume control.
To understand how it works just change the interval (bold number in the centered field) and see what happens when you play a note. (more detailed described at the Engine View). Interval provides four intervals slots. You can access these different intervals by keyswitches (C0 – Eb0) or in chain-mode which skips through the intervals by each key stroke.
Interval Les Femmes are coming in two versions. Both containing all three fabulous vocalists in three intimate as well as fragile articulations. (long, chant, breath). One version provides a natural note length, the other is looped.
