AuthorTopic: Advice on percussion options please
quincy
Posted: 13th August 2004 12:40
Hey hey kids,

Lets say i had about £44/$80/65euro in my pocket, and i wanted to make a purchase for percussion, preferably electronic.

Any thoughts on my options? I can think of Microtonic, and i'm aware or Ravity(R) but don't know much about it. Any other good options?

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Cheers, Quince.
y`e`a`p

You can try Ravity(R) demo-version.
Visit http://luxonix.com,
and click 'Ravity(R) demo download' on the right bottom section of the webpage.

I hope it can be a help to make a decision. Smile

I've been messing around with Ravity for a while and that is a positive experience for me. Didn’t use it for percussion yet though, but the bell sounds that were in it were AWESOME.
The track that I was working need bells and I was really worried about where to get good bell sounds from but with Ravity it became a matter of choosing which bell sound to use instead of where to find a good one.

If you like working with Microtonic's patterns, you should check EST (Sonicbytes). It's a full-blown pattern sequencer with the ability to build your own sample/synth based kits.

(Not just for percussion though, and might be more involved than you're looking for--but very powerful.)
