Experimental track using three patches (Ceramic Wind, FM Ceramics, Stochastic Reps) from Singing Bowls & Friends, automating plenty of Macros in Logic X, no additional effects were used, 100% UVI Falcon. All three patches make use of Falcon's Feedback Machine which yields some pretty interesting results :)

Another one, just released:

Crotales are rare orchestral percussion instruments not often used in classical music, the instrument sampled for this library ranging from C5 – C7 (C3 – C5 in classical terms). Tuned chromatically its distinct and very bright bell-like sound cuts through even at low velocities. For this soundset the instrument was multi-sampled with 2 articulations, bowed (violin bow) and beaten (special mallets with a metallic tip). There are also tempo-synced loops, improvised textures and tremolos, these samples were then used as a starting point for producing tonal soundscapes, musical beds and more experimental sound textures, often involving Falcon’s multi-granular oscillator and combining it with FM, pluck, wave-table and analog synth oscillators.

Up to 20+ Macros and switches are installed in each patch, some patches also use aftertouch, providing detailed and creative control over volume envelopes, filtering, amplitude- and pitch modulations, dynamics, stereo animation, layer leveling 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 included samples were mostly borrowed from my sound libraries Aureus Ventus for HALion and Colliding Worlds for Groove Agent (distributed exclusively by Steinberg), users holding a license to Aureus Ventus can purchase Falcon Singles - Crotales at a 40% discount.

Now pre-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 drum sounds with different articulations, this collection also contains bass sounds, soundscapes, 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.

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

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.

To shorten the waiting time until the final relase, customers will receive a pre-release version currently containing 29 patches, 923.5 of samples (233 wavs/48 khz/24 Bit), 3 wave-tables and
3 background images.

Specs:
  • Samples from 6 different frame-drums and 2 ocean drums.
    Up to 7 velocity layers and 10x round robin.
    Approximately 50 patches.
    Approximately 1.5 GB of samples (400+ wavs/stereo/48 kHz, 24 Bit).
    Content is not encrypted, samples and wavetables can be used in other samplers and synths.
    Delivery: download
    Pre-release price: € 28 EUR
    price on release: € 35 EUR
