The orchestra consisted of 412 musicians and played music pieces of up to 84 parts. Instrumental music has since touched the audiences and pleased their ears throughout Mongolia.Historical records show that there was a Grand State Orchestra under the rule of Khubilai Khan in Yuan Dynasty and including traditional Mongolian instruments as well as instrumentsįrom the diverse nations subjected to Yuan Dynasty. Gradually, the range of these instruments expanded and started to include local festive events, then public feasts, weddings, and social gatherings. The initial dedication of the musical instrument of ancient Mongolian nomadic livestock breeders and hunters were to play for themselves or to nature. Articulations included are slow and fast portamento, legato, staccato, and poly.The nomadic Mongolians created a variety of forms of musical instruments, elaborated music playing techniques, and developed a rich repertoire for those instruments over a long span of history.In the process, they made their own contribution to the culture of humanity.

The quarter tone option allows you to use middle eastern and Arabic scales by quarter toning notes with one click plus adjusting the tuning amount +/- 50 cents. The effects tab includes Reverb with real IR spaces and a delay. The instrument smart articulation script will detect the articulations automatically by velocity and speed of playing and moving between keys, even though the ney is a monophonic instrument poly playing is allowed and it is detected automatically.
Keep in mind that this does not apply to dynamic to pitch function meaning you can control pitch and/or dynamics with other than bender and modulation wheel but you cant link them like dynamic to pitch function. The two meters on the interface named "Dynamics" and "pitch" show the change in pitch and/or dynamics in real time while playing, they can be used also to control both on screen with mouse or assign different controllers to them by right clicking and using the midi learn option. The volume control of growl and flutter effect is assigned to midi CC 23 and 21 but you can still use the midi learn option to assign them to whatever you want.
Even though the ney does not or its not common to have a growl effect like the saxophone for instance, we did add that as an option along with the tongue flutter effect. Wind/air and release samples volume can be controlled by two knobs and can be assigned to any controller by midi learn option. The amount of the pitch change whether up or down can be controlled with a knob designed for that purpose called "Pitch amount". The dynamic to pitch function is basically linking modulation wheel and pitch bender together where pitch can go up/down along with dynamics and this will create the realistic vibrato that the ney player produces while playing the instrument. The concept of the instrument is to have dynamics controlled by the modulation wheel that controls volume and air of the ney itself, but because of the special characteristics of the ney sound and the way it is played we had to add an option as a function that we called "dynamic to pitch" that can be enabled /disabled.
All sound samples are looped and scripted to work with Kontakt version 5.4 to get a realistic performance of the instrument as much as possible. Where ney A is more like a synth ney or a lead ney with fast attack designed for synth sounds gurus who want the ney to sound like a synth lead sound, and B is darker sound with slower attack that sounds more like a Turkish - Persian ney, and finally C which sounds more like a Kawala with mid attack and more airy sound. Egyptian Ney is a set of 3 neys: A,B, and C.
