Voices of the Empire is truly stunning. The sounds are impeccably recorded, wonderfully useful and remarkably creative.

— AskAudio

The sound can feel like a haunted presence, an angelic glow or even the sense of deja vu - as if dreaming of an ancient civilization long ago.

— MusicConnection

Uyanga Bold’s voice has a special fascination and conjures up associations with past pagan cultures, lost empires or mysterious powers.

Forbes Magazine wrote “her voice harkens back to ancient civilizations” and she has been nominated as “Female Singer of the Year”.

• Legato instruments playback true legato intervals when playing two connected notes for every interval up to an octave. Available in traditional and Mongolian styles.
• Combo instruments combine multiple articulations into a single instrument that uses the Mod Wheel (CC1) or Velocity Sensitivity to determine which of the different articulations will playback.
• Words contain performances of specific words mapped across a 2 octave range. Use the Mod Wheel (CC1) to start the word at the beginning or an alternative start time.
• Phrases contain a total of 254 phrases sung in western and non-western styles. The average is 21 phrases for each of the 12 root keys. Although they were originally recorded to a tone in each key, they are improvised, and therefore random in nature.
