Artifacts from human beeing's speech

Cobweb is a new library that features manipulated speech samples.
Each single sample of the library passed through a sophisticated processing chain in order to remove the original informations of the words.
What's left after processing is the sound that is hidden between the lines. It's an interesting collection of distinctive noises and syllables that don't deny their origin of the human beeing's speech but are also abstract enough to work as source material for odd soundscapes.

Cobweb Live Pack contains 45 carefully crafted Instrument Racks that work as perfect starting points for further explorations in sound.
Cobweb Universal contains a selection of 47 processed speech samples with embedded loop points.

Specifications
Live Pack: compatible with Live 8/9, 45 Instruments, 120 MB
Universal: 47 WAV files with embeded loop points, 125 MB

Cobweb is available to purchase as download for 9.00 Euro
