Patchpool have released Falcon Singles – Metal Percussion for UVI’s Falcon, available for €35.00.
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, sequencer patches and granular textures often using the new oscillators and effects introduced in Falcon 3.0.
Up to 20+ Macros and switches are assigned in each patch, many also use the modulation wheel 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.
The instruments sampled:
- Barrel Drums – 200 litre 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.
- Container Drums – Various waste, recycling, storage and charity containers of different sizes and materials, mostly multi-sampled with round robin, many of the samples are pre-processed.
- 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.
