The story
The Jew’s harp is an incredible musical instrument that adds magic and mysticism to music and rhythms.
The Jew’s harp has a huge number of options for extracting sounds, so it is quite difficult to cover all its capabilities and fit them into one library.
There are a number of sampled Jew’s harp libraries that sound good in their own way.
I decided to create my own, based on my logic of vision for this instrument.
I have identified 5 vowels that can be played on a Jew`s harp: a, e, u, o, i.
For each vowel, I recorded 12 options for extracting sounds.
It turned out very interesting. Essentially, you have 60 playing options, which have their own logic.
Despite the fact that it turned out to be flexible, in the future I have plans to develop more flexible libraries for Jew’s harps.
I hope this tool will be useful to you, or will inspire you to create your own melodies.
If so, write, I will be very grateful! All the best!

Nice instrument
One of these days anybody will need a jew's harp and will not find it in his patch bank (I know, Some years ago I needed one for a "fun western music evocation" and I had to record one myself!). Now I have the choice betwen mine, done urgently, and yours
Sounds great! We need more Jew's Harp!
Glad it's reuploaded. Sounds good. I'd love to see a resurgence of Jew's Harp in modern music!
