Poiesis Cello

Poiesis Cello is a unique virtual instrument developed by Sonora Cinematic, designed for composers and sound designers seeking expressive, unconventional cello textures. Recorded in a dry studio with three high-end microphones, it delivers an intimate sound that you can shape freely. The instrument excels at creating evolving soundscapes, from tender and reflective to nervily unsettling, thanks to rich timbral shifts, octave harmonics, bow bounces, and reiterations. The updated version, hosted in the bespoke Aria Engine, expands creative control: crossfade or stack articulations, apply effects from an extensive library, filter each layer, and craft evolving textures with the intuitive XY pad. It also includes close to 100 new presets and a customizable keyswitch system for organizing articulations. Whether you produce ambient, cinematic, or experimental music, Poiesis Cello offers inspiring, organic textures that will spark new musical ideas from the first touch.
