Soundware • Re: Falcon Singles - coming next: Metal Percussion

Up for pre-orders now:



Metal Percussion is a collection of unusual percussive sounds build upon samples of found metal objects and rare instruments. Besides patches with multi-sampled instruments this library combines many of Falcon's synthesis methods in order to create interesting and unconventional electronic sounds, soundscapes, drones, pads and textures also using the new Harmonic Resonator-oscillator and effects introduced in Falcon 3.0.

Up to 20+ Macros and switches are assigned in each patch, many also use the modulation wheel and sometimes aftertouch, providing detailed control over volume envelopes, filtering, amplitude- and pitch modulations, time-stretching, granular parameters, EQ-ing, dynamics, stereo animation and more. All patches use some sort of background image in the UI, split patches have colored key-zones in the Falcon keyboard for easier navigation.

Sampled instruments:

• Barrel Drums.
  200 liter oil barrel, multi-sampled hits at different spots of the barrel, played with all kinds of sticks, mallets and other things, also hitting a cymbal lying on top of the barrel - some electronic derivatives and 2 synced loops are also available.
  *Kitchen Percussion.
  Multi-sampled kitchen objects sampled with up to 8x round robin and 7 velocity layers: two cooking pots (one of them filled with water) played with various sticks, spoons and mallets, a milk foamer, a salad spinner, cutlery and a knife sharpener.
  *Water Pan, Spring Drum, Thunder Sheet - multisampled with up to 6 velocity layers and 8x round robin, some electronic derivatives and tempo-synced loops.
  *Various found metal objects, also sampled in the field with a field recorder.

About 30% of the samples and all wave-tables were produced for this library, all other samples were borrowed from my sound library Colliding Worlds for Groove Agent - distributed exclusively by Steinberg.

Specs:

• Approximately 1 GB of samples
  (400+ wavs/stereo/48 kHz/24 Bit), all acoustic samples were recorded in L-C-R with phase-aligned microphone signals.
  *Up to 6 velocity layers and 10x round robin.
  *Wave-tables derived from the sampled instruments.
  *Aproximately 60+ patches.
  *Content is not encrypted, samples and wavetables can be used in other samplers and synths.
  *Delivery: download
  *Pre-order price: € 28 EUR
  *Price on release: € 35 EUR (ETA 1st half of March)
  *Requires the full version of Falcon version 3.0 or higher, does not work with the UVI player.
