GIGA ANKLUNG – Just uploaded anklung staccatos in GIGA format for use with Gigastudio. I still have to check if it imports well into Kontakt, but it should. The 1.52 update said it has improved its GIGA importing capability.

The strange symbols on the header are nothing new. They appear in an ancient Ilocano book, Libro a naisurátan amin ti bagás ti Doctrina Cristiana… written by Francisco Lopez in 1620. Almost four centuries later, they were encoded into Windows fonts by Paul Morrow, a Canadian who has found deep interest in Filipino culture. Paul was kind enough to help me translate my name. It’s so strange learning about ancient Philippines from a Canadian! Discover  more from Paul’s Sarisari Etc. site.
