FlyingHand Percussion from SONiVOX, is an exquisite selection of hand-held and exotic electronic percussion instruments, produced by veteran sound designer and composer Eitan Teomi. The library comprises over 40,000 samples packed into four DVDs. Recorded with multiple microphone positions with 24-bit sample resolution, the collection includes an extensive selection of articulations, up to twenty dynamic samples (soft to loud) per instrument and up to four alternate takes per articulation.
Rather than simply triggering samples in response to a controller, FlyingHand Percussion provides several performance tools to enhance the playability of the library. "Legato Drumming" intelligently responds to musical phrases, inserting musical nuances and tonal variances to provide an added level of authenticity. The result sounds very much like a real percussionist hitting the drum in a slightly different place each time or moving a hand across the drum head.
"Playable Key-Maps" maintain the same key-map layout across all instruments for added playability, which not only results in real sounding tracks, but allows for fast production. Also included are custom key-mappings for the Zendrum MIDI controller. "Virtual Room Impulses" include custom stereo and surround room and hall impulses, delivered in a special edition of the PsP Audioware Nitro Filterbank plug-in. The ambiances allow for placing percussion tracks exactly where required within a mix.
