This is the closest EXHALE gets to a traditional keyboard instrument, allowing you to create harmonies as you would do on the piano or a synth. In Notes mode, EXHALE allows you to select up to two sound sources which are chromatically mapped to the keyboard. The difference between the modes is meaningful and really gives you a different instrument to work with. All presets are exclusive to one mode only, meaning that each mode has its own particular set of presets that is only accessible when that mode is selected. It comes with 500 (five hundred!) presets: 250 in Notes mode, 125 in Loops mode, and another 125 in Slices mode. As the guys behind EXHALE put it on Output’s website: “As musicians, we’ve always wanted (and could never find) a vocal product that captured the modern sound of today’s records and most creative scores.”ĮXHALE works in three different modes: Notes, Loops and Slices. It has a pop sensibility in it, a quality that is already present in the samples themselves (they were recorded in a dry environment, much in the way one would do to record vocals to a pop song). To give a better description of it, EXHALE uses voice samples to create beautiful and intriguing pads, rhythmic/percussive loops and other kinds of synth-like instruments. This is not what this instrument is about. It could and probably would fit a traditional orchestral environment, but definitely not as a standard vocal or choir library would do. CharacteristicsĮXHALE is not a vocal library in a traditional sense. With a library based exclusively of vocal samples, EXHALE comes out as an interesting and versatile modern-sounding instrument, with an overall synthetic/electronic sonority that manages to keep the expressive quality of its main sonic material: the voice. In terms of sonority, however, EXHALE is quite different than its predecessor.

EXHALE was very likely built over the same engine used in Signal, as both instruments share many similarities, as for instance, the four macro sliders in the main window, and the possibility of selecting two audio sources for creating a compound, more complex final sound. The similarities are not limited to the colors (which at this point creates a sense of identity to the products released by Output). It is clear from the layout and color scheme that it is the younger brother of Signal, Output’s previous instrument. EXHALE comes with around 8.5GB of samples, all of it accessible through one single.
