Emergence Audio Vela Woodwinds KONTAKT

The Sound Between The Sea and The Stars
Vela Woodwinds was born from the drift between gravity and stillness, the low breath of clarinet, refracted through starlight, silence, and suspended motion.

Where traditional woodwind libraries emphasize agility, articulation, and orchestral form, we turned toward something slower, deeper: a meditation on tone as atmosphere. Inspired by the Vela constellation, Latin for “sail”, we imagined an instrument that doesn't perform, but floats.

Using organic recordings of Bass and Contra Clarinet as our foundation, we sculpted evolving textures not through virtuosity, but through transformation. Powered by our Infinite Motion Engine™ and Non-Static Sampling™, Vela breathes without looping, revealing new dimensions with each sustained note.

What emerges is neither classical nor ambient, but something weightless in between. A library that reimagines woodwinds as vessels of sonic motion, drifting through oceanic depths and interstellar space.

Vela Woodwinds is for composers who seek movement over momentum, and for sound designers who navigate tension, isolation, and awe. Whether scoring a dream sequence, a slow sci-fi expanse, or an experimental short, this is sound that sails between the sea and the stars.

Set your course. Vela is ready.

Movement That Feels Infinite
Non-Static Sampling™ developed by Founder Michael Vignola was born from a desire to capture what makes real instruments feel human, the way a tone shifts as breath changes, how texture wavers under pressure, or how resonance deepens with time. Instead of isolating a single, perfect moment, this technique preserves the unfolding nature of sound, shaping each note to evolve, to move, and to subtly transform as it sustains. Every gesture reveals new sonic detail, not through automation, but through the sound itself. No two moments recorded are quite the same. This is the heart of Non-Static Sampling™. Sound that doesn't just play, it progresses. Tone that doesn't just hold, it grows.

When fused with the Infinite Motion Engine™, this evolving behavior becomes part of a larger generative system - one that gives composers new expressive control over time, motion, and emotion.

What emerges isn't just realistic, it's restless, responsive, and always becoming.
