Vocal Depths, Creative Peaks

The Basso Profondo represents the deepest and darkest voice in the human vocal range. Revered in church choirs and operatic roles like Baron Ochs in Der Rosenkavalier, this register captivates with its resonant timbre, capable of rattling foundations while also delivering an ethereal, haunting quality that ranges from enchanting to eerie. The foreboding deep bass dives into dramatic dimensions that few other voices can reach, embodying the mysterious and the earthy. Originating from the recording sessions for the choir-heavy “The Rings of Power” scoring sessions at Synchron Stage Vienna, this library of massive voices is ready to take your project to new depths of expression.

Overview

  • A full basso profondo choir at your disposal

  • Exceptionally and virtuosic deep voices

  • Versatile low register sounds

  • Expressive articulations like legato and marcato

  • Vocal effects from the sacred (omm & prayer) to the scary

  • Basso Profondo singers, whose voices are distinguished by their rich, resonant, and profoundly deep vocal quality, stand out for their ability to reach the lower limits of the human vocal range. That means descending far below the common bass and typically encompassing notes as low as two octaves below middle C (C2) or even lower. Also called oktavists, they often sing an octave below the bass part as soloists. Even one singer using the depths of his voice like that is impressive, now imagine hearing six contrabass singers fill the vast Synchron Stage A – and now your DAW! – with the robust sound of a low C: It’s mystifying and undeniably mesmerizing.
