Low End Toys

Low End Toys
Deepest layered toys and toy instruments

Low End Toys is a unique collection of acoustic, mechanical, electric and electronic toys and toy instruments, alive and damaged, partly sampled with high frequency microphones (up to 100 kHz) and all pitched down 2 or even 3 octaves, combined with other super deep layers in over 160 presets with three sound variations each.

This is the 3rd release in the Low End series, but not just simply another toy instrument, but a new twist with "Low End" sounds no other instrument offers in a musical way.

10 Phantom Rooms sampled and deeply mangled those toys:

• Toy robots, remote-controlled cars & drones.
• Magnetic, wood and glass (marble) toys.
• Steam locomotives and other toy trains.
• Toy pianos and other toy instruments like organs, xylophones, guitars, flutes, melodicas, bells etc.
• Vintage mechanical and electro-acoustic toys of many kinds, like toy clocks.
• Several rare toy synths.
• Uniquely modded toys for super unique noises.

The instrument offers 166 snapshots in those categories:

• Bass Drones.
• Basses.
• Bells.
• Keys.
• Pads.
• SFX & Toy Stories.

Each preset consists of 4 layered channels with the morphing possibility of all 4 channel volumes, panorama and all 6 macros. The current states of those controls can be stored in one of the "sub-presets" (A, B, C) and can be morphed via mod wheel. So please make sure to use the mod wheel when playing any preset.
