Family Ensemble

Ever since Jon Meyer introduced the Meyer Choir, I’ve been inspired to capture the unique character of the voices closest to me. The result is Family Ensemble – a personal, intimate vocal library for Decent Sampler.

I’m sharing this not just as a tool, but as an invitation. I hope these files serve as a starting point to encourage you to record your own family and find the joy in their unique “vocal DNA.”

The Voices:
Blend the volumes of four distinct singers (my wife, my father-in-law, my younger son, and myself) or solo them for a personal touch.
Use the “head” controls to position each singer across the stereo field.
Toggle between four different articulations: Ah, Oh, La, and Di.

The right side of the UI gives you full creative control with envelope settings, reverb, chorus, delay, and a filter.

Vocals can be tricky in a mix! For the best results, try layering different octaves and vowels to recreate the lush textures heard in the demos.
