1958 Soprano Melodica as a multi-sampled Kontakt Instrument. Take advantage of the different characters of the four microphone types and mix your own original redma sound until it fits your taste perfectly
The Soprano Melodica is a nice and easy to use reed instrument made since 1958 by the german company Hohner*.
The sound is generated by blowing air through a mouthpiece into fine brass reeds like those used in Harmocicas.
This underrated instrument was used by musicians like UB40, Depeche Mode, The Gorillas, The Hooters, Supertramp and… you too name a few!
We are very happy to get our hands on one of these rare old instruments in a very good, maybe never used, condition. This is one of the very first Melodicas ever made.
Overview
We have recorded this old, fantastic sounding beauty with four different types of microphones thru well selected preamps after some time consuming experiments:
Piezo Mic (attached to the chassis)
Condenser Mic (placed 30 cm in front of the instrument)
Dynamic Mic (placed 30 cm in front of the instrument)
Stereo Mic (placed overhead)
