New Middle-Eastern Instrument Collection from Sonic Implants

Musicians will be able to add the mystery of the orient to their latest compositions with the release of Sonic Implants' new CD, Silk Road, Middle Eastern Melodic & Percussion Instruments. The very name, Silk Road, inspires visions of camel caravans traversing the 7,000-mile trading route between the west and the ancient orient, winding through China, Central Asia, Northern India, Parthian and Roman Empires (the current countries of China, India, Iran, Iraq, Persia & Syria). The popular trade route blended culture, music, art and religion for centuries.

The new Sonic Implants release, with samples performed by Middle Eastern musicians, captures the authentic melodic and percussion instruments from the Middle East. "We've included extra help for users who are new to these sounds," said Jennifer Hruska, President of Sonic Network, Inc. "There are nine pages of printed documentation explaining the history and use of these instruments and the CD also includes Percussion Loops and Melodic Improvisations for composers to either use in their pieces or help with the style." she added. The Silk Road, Middle Eastern Instruments CD-ROM, priced at $249.95, is available in Gigasampler and Kurzweil formats now and will be available as soundfonts in the next few weeks.

MP3 demos and more information are available at the Sonic Implants web site.
