鲸鱼鼓 Soundiron Whale Drum v2.0 KONTAKT

Soundiron Whale Drum v2.0 KONTAKT
鲸鱼鼓是世界上最古老的乐器家族之一的现代例子：舌鼓。这些“传言者”家族的祖先是数千年前在非洲发展起来的。它们最初是用空心原木或木块雕刻而成，然后敲击产生敲击声。它是被认为可能早于语言本身的少数工具之一。多年来，裂隙鼓已得到实质性的改进，可以实现更准确的音准和更大的音调范围。我们选择鲸鱼为其马林巴（Marimba）般的温暖，梦幻般的音调，柔和的圆润攻击感和微妙的起伏衰减。小调的音符特别丰富。

我们在干燥的录音棚环境中用槌，木棍和刷子录制了14寸8舌朱红舌鼓。我们在舌头中央和边缘位置记录了每个槌状击打音符，每个音符平均有10个动态速度层和10个循环变化。棍棒和刷子的关节在鼓的各种边缘和表面上演奏。然后，我们用大槌和木棒在不远处用大型混响瓷砖和石头大厅录制了该乐器的第二次会议。这种“湿”的霍尔声非常适合管弦乐队的安排和更加大气的歌曲创作。

作为奖励，我们还录制了一个较小的3音符裂鼓和一个木制玩具木琴。还可以选择精美的大气垫和由原始声源材料雕刻而成的不断变化的氛围来进行额外的选择。所有这些发音和声音设置都可以在您的指尖提供独立的发音层次，融合和切换。
The Whale Drum is a modern example of one of the world’s oldest known instrument families: the tongue or slit drum. These progenitors of the “idiophone” family were originally developed in Africa thousands of years ago. They were originally carved from hollow logs or wooden blocks and struck to produce percussive musical tones. It is one of the few instruments considered to possibly predate language itself. Over the ages, slit drums have been substantially refined to allow more accurate intonation and wider key ranges. We selected our whaledrum for its marimba-like warmth, dreamy tone, gentle softly-rounded attack and subtly undulating decay. The lower notes have an especially deep richness to them.

We recorded our 14” 8-tongued vermilion tongue drum in a dry studio environment with mallets, wooden sticks and brushes. We recorded each mallet struck note at both tongue center and edge positions, with an average of 10 dynamic velocity layers and 10 round-robin variations per note. The stick and brush articulations were played over various edges and surfaces around the drum. We then recorded a second session with the instrument in a large reverberant tile and stone hall from a slight distance with mallets and sticks. This “wet” hall sound is ideal for orchestral arrangements and more atmospheric songwriting.

As a bonus, we also recorded a smaller 3-note slit drum and a wooden toy xylophone. There is also a great bonus selection of delicate atmospheric pads and evolving ambiences sculpted from the original acoustic source material. All of these articulations and sound sets offer independent articulation layering, blending and switching right at your fingertips.

CONTENTS

The UI comes packed with lots of great sound-shaping controls like swell, attack, release, offset, vibrato, filter, pitch (coarse & fine), articulation switching, cross-fading and layering, and so much more. The Advanced Control window adds additional options like an LFO with shape, target, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in control. You can also choose from 12 low-pass, high-pass and FX filters, with assignable modulation targets such as velocity, modwheel, expression, key position and step-sequencer table control. The ARP system features a velocity sequencer and controls for arp direction, note timing, swing, randomization and duration. The new key and scale lock system allows for easy melodic composition and live performance. It\'s all rounded out by our modular FX rack window, with 18 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 10 available slots, in any order that you wish. You’ll find classic phase, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more.
