HISSandaROAR have made their UFX031 TWIGS pack available as a FREE download for a limited time, (usually $5.00). The offer ends May 26th.
HISSandaROAR spent a weekend sorting out part of their garden, where they had planted three Tamarillo plants. They had grown quite big and too tall for the site, so HISSandaROAR got some cutters and lopped off a few branches, only to discover that some of the branches were almost hollow! They had a comb-like internal structure but obviously weren’t getting enough water. You can probably guess what happened next… How would they sound if HISSandaROAR snap them? OH!! YES!!!
So the pile of branches HISSandaROAR were about to dump on the compost heap suddenly got carefully collected up and stacked indoors.
The variety of captures is interesting, some cracked VERY loudly when they broke, others were more subdued. To add more variety, HISSandaROAR got some vice grips (large pliers) and crushed some, and twisted others.
While HISSandaROAR had a pile of debris they also performed a few other ideas. First they wrapped the branch bits in a towell & captured shakes & drops. Next HISSandaROAR took the vice grips & forcefully hit the bundle of twigs. Finally they dropped the pieces, as small debris elements.
It’s a useful little library, and HISSandaROAR also did a mix pass, crushing them just to see how much dynamic they could remove in aid of maximum crunch. Those processed versions are also included.
