The story
This is the world percussion portion of a multi-part percussion library I put together during my final year of university. For a few years now, this library has been a secret sauce/garnish that I would blend into my other paid and professional libraries and figured it was about time to share!
Despite this being my first go at sampling, I had access to all of the conservatory’s instruments, multiple studios, and professional gear so I was pretty intent on quality and detailed sampling. Most articulations were captured with left and right hand variants and at least 6 velocity layers/4 round robins (unless the articulation or drum was specialized in some way).
The rig:
Preamps- API’s THE BOX, and Focusrite ISA428
Close Mics- Neumann KM 184’s
Room Mics- Neumann U87s
The collection:
Djembe
Conga
Bongo
Udu
Taiko Family (O Daiko, Taiko, Shime Daiko)
Reviews
Perfection.
This misses absolutely nothing, and it's actually better executed than many premium instruments that I've encountered. Absolute perfection, must download, must use, and must be thankful for the contribution. This will help many, many composers who start out without having a proper percussion library. Kudos!
Wait, you're giving this to us... for free!?
Better than some premium percussion packs, thank you, Hunter!
Fantastic pack.
As a percussionist it is nice to see such a well produced product.
