I made a little demonstration video about Insanity Samples' Celle ONE virtual instrument - for a post on a composer forum. As part of that I challenged myself to record a mini demo under 15 minutes. This is what I came up with, for better or worse. All a bit silly and as usual I may not be doing the instrument any favours.

Instruments used:

- Insanity Samples Cello ONE legato patch with staccato overlay

- synth patches all from Simon Stockhausen's Falcon Singles bundle (which is a stellar collection and the pinnacle of sample based sound design in UVI Falcon):

1) Patchpool Falcon Singles library Ambient Piano - patch: Mixolydian Cloud

2) Patchpool Falcon Singles library Frame Drums - patch: FD Mallets & Slaps RR4

3) Patchpool Falcon Singles library HANG - patch: Clay Bass
