And released:

Frame Drums & Friends is a unique percussion library containing multi-sampled frame-drums, ocean drums and a special gong drum from Pakistan sampled especially for this collection. Besides a broad array of percussive and textural drum sounds with different articulations, this collection also contains bass sounds, soundscapes, tempo-synced loops in various time signatures, experimental noises, drones and synth patches derived from re-synthesized and wave-tabled drum samples. Quite a few patches also layer frame-drum samples or their derivatives with Falcon's internal synth and granular oscillators. Some gong samples and field recordings of ocean waves complete this collection.

Up to 20+ Macros and switches are assigned in each patch, many also use the modulation wheel and sometimes aftertouch, 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.

About 50% of the samples were produced for this library, the other half was borrowed from my sound library Colliding Worlds for Groove Agent - distributed exclusively by Steinberg - and other patchpool libraries.

You can view/download the PDF for this library with more details, the licence agreement and the patchlist including descriptions and playing tips here.

Specs:

Samples from 5 different frame-drums and 2 ocean drums, electronic soundscapes derived thereof, field recordings and gong samples.
Up to 7 velocity layers and 10x round robin.
68 patches.
1.29 GB of samples (363 wavs/stereo/48 kHz, 24 Bit),
6 wave-tables and 5 background images.
Library size in total: 1.31 GB unzipped.
Content is not encrypted, samples and wavetables can be used in other samplers and synths.
Delivery: download (zip 1.18 GB)
Price: € 35 EUR
Requires the full version of Falcon, does not work with the UVI player.

Ambient track featuring two patches from Falcon Singles - Frame Drums & Friend, plenty of Macro automation in Logic X, no additional effects - 100% UVI Falcon.

Patch descriptions:

Whale Song
"Three layered samples of sliding a rubber ball mounted on a stick on the skin of an ocean drum drum producing whale-like low frequency glissandos, multi-granular oscillators - layered with an analog synth drone in L2. Each glissando and the synth have their dedicated volume controls.
Control grain speed/position/pitch randomization with Macros, add re-triggering HP filter modulation and tempo-synced amplitude modulation (different sync speed for each sample) with Macros. More controls for delay/reverb/limiter are installed."

Pacific Ocean
Two long textural samples made by slowly moving a small ocean drum filled with metallic spheres layered with two field recordings of ocean waves hitting a pebble beach I made at the Atlantic Ocean in in Northern France, control or randomize sample start with Macros. The drum swishes and the ocean sounds have dedicated volume controls, add tuned comb-filter with “Resonator“-Macro, add polyphonic modulation (per note) for LP filter, panning, pitch and amplitude modulation with Macros. More controls for phaser/delay/reverb/limiter are installed.

Up for pre-orders now:

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 and textures also using the new Harmonic Resonator-oscillator and effects introduced in Falcon 3.0.

Up to 20+ Macros and switches are assigned in each patch, many also use the modulation wheel and sometimes aftertouch, 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.

Sampled instruments:

Barrel Drums.
200 liter 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.
*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.

About 30% of the samples and all wave-tables were produced for this library, all other samples were borrowed from my sound library Colliding Worlds for Groove Agent - distributed exclusively by Steinberg.

Specs:

Approximately 1 GB of samples
(400+ wavs/stereo/48 kHz/24 Bit), all acoustic samples were recorded in L-C-R with phase-aligned microphone signals.
*Up to 6 velocity layers and 10x round robin.
*Wave-tables derived from the sampled instruments.
*Aproximately 60+ patches.
*Content is not encrypted, samples and wavetables can be used in other samplers and synths.
*Delivery: download
*Pre-order price: € 28 EUR
*Price on release: € 35 EUR (ETA 1st half of March)
*Requires the full version of Falcon version 3.0 or higher, does not work with the UVI player.
