The Beat Goes On

Continuing our search for percussive perfection, this collection adds a new arsenal of fine instruments to the Synchron Series and to your studio. While Percussion I covers the standard, most common orchestral percussion instruments, this collections takes it a step further. Expanding sonic horizons and your creative possibilities alike, it offers instruments like the mighty anvil, rainmakers, roto-toms, China gong, vibraphone, and many more. As with the first collection, the instruments were captured on our large “Stage A” using the same multi-microphone setup that makes their pristine sound production-ready straight out of the box as well as extremely flexible. From subtle to traditional to modern and processed, this collection delivers first-class percussion for any genre or soundscape.

What's that Noise - Synchron Orchestral Percussion II

Andreas Olszewski

All instruments include single strokes in many velocity layers and several round robins, rolls and effect articulations. For some instruments, rolls are available in two variants: “Static” rolls are recorded without changing dynamics and allow you to transition smoothly through velocity layers from pianissimo to fortissimo. “Dynamic” rolls were recorded with their dynamic changes (crescendos and diminuendos) performed over various lengths. You may release the key at any time – the individually adapted release samples will be triggered automatically. Included MIDI loops for taikos and timpani make it easy to create driving rhythms. Just pre-listen in the Synchron Player and drag them into your DAW.
