You might think this instrument is ethnic strum Kontakt library only.
In reality, Flow & Motion – Dombra works great in many genres, from cinematic and pop to ambient, trailer, and modern scoring.
Here is the secret: the instrument works perfectly in the background, not only as a main instrument.
It creates movement, flow, and rhythm that hold the track together.
Sometimes you barely hear it, but when you mute it, the music suddenly feels empty and loses its rhythm.
We used it this way in different soundtracks, and it always adds life and movement to the sound without getting in the way.
你或许认为这仅是一款民族弹拨音色库。
但 Flow & Motion – Dombra 实则适配多元风格：从影视配乐、流行乐到氛围音乐、预告片乃至现代作曲。
其核心价值在于：它不仅是主奏乐器，更是完美的背景节奏引擎。
它能创造推动音乐发展的律动与呼吸感，让作品浑然一体。
有时它近乎隐形，但一旦静音，整曲便瞬间失去节奏支点而显得空洞。
Wavelet Audio 在多部配乐中如此运用——它总能为声音注入生命力与流动性，且绝不喧宾夺主。
Have you ever found a rhythm kontakt library that you liked, only to find out that the engine only uses one-shots?
Did you have to play billions of notes to make it work properly?
Maybe the library is difficult to use, lacks a real rhythm engine,
or the engine is too basic for complex or custom grooves.
Do these libraries use pre-recorded chords?
These chords can’t be easily edited.
As composers, we understand how frustrating that can be, so we wanted to create something new.
你是否曾遇到过这样的困境，找到一款心仪的节奏音色库，却发现引擎仅支持单次采样触发？
是否需要演奏海量音符才能实现自然律动？
或许库体操作繁琐、缺乏真正的节奏引擎，
或引擎过于基础难以处理复杂及自定义律动。
这些音色库是否使用预制和弦？
这些和弦往往难以灵活编辑。
作为创作者，Wavelet Audio 深知这种挫败感——因此 Wavelet Audio 决心打造全新的解决方案。
The main idea behind Flow & Motion – Dombra is to create a powerful rhythm instrument that is easy to use.
You don’t need to know how the engine works.
Just press a few keys, and the instrument will automatically choose the right string and fret.
The instrument performs with the same natural feel, timing, and dynamics as a real player.
If you want to play melodies with single notes in a classical style, simply turn off the rhythm engine and switch to fully playable mode.
Flow & Motion – Dombra 的核心设计理念，是打造一款强大且易用的节奏乐器。
你无需理解引擎原理，
只需按下几个琴键，乐器便会自动选择正确的琴弦与品位。
演奏效果自然真实，呈现与真人演奏无异的动态响应、时序感和表现力。
若需以古典风格演奏单音旋律，只需关闭节奏引擎，切换至全演奏模式即可。
Dombra uses a simple, custom machine learning algorithm to generate natural, human-like rhythms.
We developed a basic smart system and trained it using thousands of rhythms.
The library uses this knowledge to randomly generate good-sounding patterns.
Dombra 采用简洁的自定义机器学习算法，生成自然且富有人性化的节奏型。
我们开发了基础智能系统，并通过数千种节奏样本进行训练。
音色库运用习得的模式知识，随机生成听觉舒适的节奏组合。
Even better, the engine doesn’t stop there.
It also checks how users interact with the library, which rhythms are triggered, how they are played, and which patterns are preferred.
The engine slowly adapts and keeps learning. Over time, it gets better at choosing patterns.
更出色的是，引擎的智能并未止步于此。
它持续分析用户与音色库的交互行为：触发节奏的类型、演奏方式及常用模式偏好。
引擎会逐步自适应并持续学习，随时间推移不断提升节奏模式的匹配精准度。
We included a wide range of built-in effects to provide more creative options.
Although the Dombra is a nylon instrument, it responds well to processing.
Apply delays, reverbs, distortions, modulations, and more to create unique sounds and interesting effect chains that go far beyond the traditional tone.
我们内置了丰富的效果器阵列，以拓展创意空间。
尽管冬不拉是尼龙弦乐器，其对音频处理的响应却异常出色。
可叠加延迟、混响、失真、调制等效果，打造超越传统音色的独特声景与效果链组合。
We created several categories of snapshots to speed up the workflow, simplify sound selection, and demonstrate the capabilities of the engine.
Each snapshot includes all four rhythm patterns, making the structure feel complete.
我们创建了多组快照分类，以加速工作流程、简化音色选择并充分展示引擎性能。
每个 Snapshot 均包含四种节奏型，确保结构完整性。
The instrument was sampled with a limited range of two strings.
But we also captured the tone and playing style of other instruments such as the koto, mandolin, bass, guitars, and synths,
and recreated them directly inside the engine with impressive precision.
该乐器的采样范围虽限于双弦结构，
但我们同步捕捉了其他乐器（如古筝、曼陀林、贝斯、吉他及合成器）的音色特质与演奏风格，
并在引擎内以惊人精度实现了音色重塑。
Dombra is fully sampled. By default, the engine intelligently selects the appropriate string to produce the best sound.
However, if more control is needed, the string can be manually chosen using velocity.
This shapes the sound and provides additional control, as it is well known that the same note played on different strings can have a slightly different tone and character.
Dombra 采用全采样录制。默认模式下，引擎会智能选择最佳琴弦以呈现优质音色。
若需精细控制，亦可借助力度感应手动指定琴弦。
此举可塑造音色并增强操控性——众所周知，同一音符在不同琴弦上演奏会产生微妙的音色差异与个性特征。
Dombra offers several play modes.
In Normal mode, it plays like a real two-string instrument with natural string behavior.
Solo mode is designed for playing melodic or lead parts with full expression.
Polyphonic mode is useful for playing full chords and harmonies.
It surpasses the original instrument’s physical limitations and allows for maximum freedom.
Presets window with Factory and User presets for Performance and Mixer & Mics.
Dombra 提供多种演奏模式。
常规模式下，乐器模拟真实双弦乐器，呈现自然的弦乐行为。
独奏模式专为旋律或主奏乐句设计，支持全动态表达。
复音模式可演奏完整和弦与和声，
突破原乐器物理限制，实现最大创作自由度。
预设窗口包含出厂预设与用户预设，涵盖演奏模式、混音器及麦克风设置。
Noise reduction is quite strong because we also captured a DI signal with analog compression during recording.
We removed the DI layer later because it was redundant with the thin nylon strings.
In any case, there was a lot of unwanted analog noise and artifacts. However, we kept the subtle musical noises and natural imperfections.
These subtle artifacts come from our real performance sampling approach, which makes the instrument feel more organic.
At the same time, we carefully controlled these artifacts to ensure they are not repetitive or distracting, maintaining a natural and musical balance.
由于录制时同步采集了经模拟压缩的直通信号，本底噪声控制极为出色。
后期移除了直通音层——因纤细的尼龙弦已充分承载细节。
尽管存在各类模拟噪声与信号杂质，Wavelet Audio 刻意保留了细微的演奏杂音与自然瑕疵。
这些微妙的痕迹源于真实演奏采样理念，让乐器更具有机感。
同时我们精确控制这些痕迹，确保其不重复、不干扰，维持自然且音乐化的平衡。
Limited range
The instrument range might feel limited to some users.
This is because the original dombra has only two strings, which is common for many ethnic instruments.
However, you can easily adjust the mic tuning to reach the desired range.
The instrument handles moderate pitch shifting well, so you can extend its range without significantly losing sound quality.
范围限制
部分用户可能感到乐器音域有限。
这源于传统 Dombra 仅有两根琴弦的设计，许多民族乐器均具此特性。
但你可以通过麦克风调谐轻松扩展至目标音域。
该乐器能良好地承受适度音高偏移，可在保持音质的前提下有效拓展演奏范围。
As before, we used a performance sampling technique to record highly realistic samples for the new rhythm kontakt library.
We applied all our previous experience with instruments to this new one.
我们延续了表演采样技术，为这款全新节奏音色库录制了高度真实的采样。
并将过往所有乐器开发经验倾注于此。
NOT ONLY ETHNIC STRUM KONTAKT LIBRARY
Rhythm Virtual Instrument
The Dombra is one of the most iconic ethnic instruments in Central Asia.
In Kazakhstan, it is considered a national symbol.
Traditionally crafted from a single piece of wood, the dombra has two long strings stretched over a narrow body and is played by plucking.
Despite its simplicity, the dombra produces a bright, percussive tone with a strong rhythmic quality.
Its clear attack and lively articulation make it ideal for fast patterns and expressive storytelling.
Today, the dombra is used in folk music, modern ensembles, orchestras, and even contemporary genres, remaining a proud representation of cultural heritage and musical identity.
不止于民族弹拨音色库
节奏虚拟乐器
冬不拉是中亚最具标志性的民族乐器之一，在哈萨克斯坦被视为国家象征。
传统工艺采用整木雕刻而成，琴身细长配有两根长弦，通过拨奏发声。
尽管结构简单，冬不拉却能产生明亮打击感且节奏性极强的音色。
其清晰的起音与活泼的 Articulation 使其特别适合快速节奏型与叙事性表达。
如今 Dombra 不仅用于民间音乐，更活跃于现代乐团、交响乐队甚至当代音乐流派，始终是文化遗产与音乐认同的骄傲象征。
We have a deep respect for the traditions and cultural symbolism of the dombra.
And we approached its recording with great care and respect.
However, we were most inspired by its sound, not only its cultural importance, and beautiful tone, the energy it brings to rhythms, and how naturally it speaks through strumming.
Initially, we didn’t plan to feature the dombra in the interface, but we changed our minds and decided to present it in black wood and gold.
As with the kobyz we sampled for RUNA, our goal was to honor the instrument’s roots while also revealing how far its sound can go, beyond any boundaries of genre or tradition.
我们深怀对冬不拉传统与文化象征的敬意，以极其谨慎的态度完成录制。
但最激发创作灵感的，是其声音本身——不仅是文化价值与优美音色，更是它赋予节奏的能量感，以及拨奏时浑然天成的表达力。
最初我们未计划在界面突出冬不拉形象，但最终决定以黑木鎏金质感呈现。
正如为 RUNA 采样的 Kobyz 琴，我们的目标既在致敬乐器本源，更在发掘其音色跨越流派与传统边界的无限可能。
