Vocal Textures is a playable instrument based on two independent layers (L1 and
L2) of vocal tonal and atonal sounds that can be blended, filtered and
morphed from the intuitive main panel in the UI. Each layer features cutoff, resonance, LFO and Volume Envelope controls. With the useful VOCAL MORPH knob it is possible to easily create interesting sonic combinations from any chosen pair of sounds. Vocal Textures feature 56 Kontakt snapshots.

Hellen features 7 One Shot SFX instruments, divided by category of sounds:
Screams, Laments-Howlings, Creatures, Whispers-Sentences, MonsterGrowls, Shrieks-Screeches, Gasps-Yells.

The One Shot SFX instruments in Hellen feature a per-sample control on any parameter (Volume, Pitch, Low Pass Filter, High Pass Filter, LFO and Volume Envelope, Straight/Reverse play), plus the possibility to globally control any parameter by using the ‘Global Controls’ window. By using the Extend switch, you can play any chosen sample chromatically along the keyboard.

Hellen features two vocal sequencers/builders: the Syllables Sequencer and the Breath Sequencer. They both allow to sequence short groups of tempo synched syllables and create a long, rhythmical spoken phrase and/or breathing sequence.

The Syllables Sequencer is based on a fictional language occasionally resembling ancient Latin, whereas the Breath Sequencers features short breathing sounds. In both instruments, the two featured voices can be independently activated/deactivated per step. All the syllables have been recorded at 70 bpm and use the Time Machine Pro in Kontakt (HQ), so the quality of the sound is not compromised by bpm changes.

The Vocalise Builder in Hellen is a sound design instrument conceived and
developed to easily create customized demonic and creature-esque voices.

It is based on 3 independent layers featuring dry and less designed sounds in in
order to provide useful source material and allow room for creative experimentation.

The 3 layers can be automatically stacked on the top of each other by simply
pressing the green key on the virtual keyboard. Each layer can be played either with a regular sample playback or in Time Stretch mode, with control on the amount of time stretch and formants. By using the several randomization options, it is possible to quickly create interesting combinations of sounds and customized sound effects.

The Breath Loops instrument in Hellen features tempo synched loops (original
tempo 70 bpm) automatically synched to the master tempo in the DAW. By using the Half Tempo and Formant controls (independent per each sample) it is possible to alter the timing and the gender of the voice and creating tensive vocal rhythms.
