Description
Sama Harmonium is a lightweight virtual harmonium from Samsara Cycle Audio for Windows VST hosts. It uses four drawbars to control reed registers, including octave selection, and does not rely on sampled audio.
The instrument includes attack, decay, sustain, and release controls, three tone controls, and a separate reed control. A bellow section adds delay, speed, depth, and host synchronization, while velocity switching and tuning provide additional performance control.
Sama Harmonium also supports MIDI learn and stores up to 128 patches. Installation uses a simple VST workflow: unzip the package and place the DLL in the folder scanned by the host.
Use it for sustained harmonium chords, drones, devotional or folk-inspired parts, and atmospheric layers when a small CPU footprint and direct drawbar control are useful.
