Radian uses a bank of harmonic oscillators to render up to 256 partials of an ideal 2D circular membrane. The membrane is coupled with an air resonance and a rudimentary rim resonance model consisting of eight partials.
The timbres of acoustic drums vary widely from the ideal form. Radian produces sounds that are reminiscent of single membrane percussion instruments and is best enjoyed as an abstract because of the simplified and generalised parameterisation.
The modeled instrument is mono-timbral and does not track the keyboard. Pitch bend is used to modify striking position.

Can't believe there is no review for this old thing. As a percussionist i have been looking for something like this for years. One can come up with some rather useful and even at times realistic sounds that react to velocity that emulates a real drum membrane. It has become one of my secret weapons in my already huge aresenal of drum and percussion vsts. Sort of a cross between a NORD drum and a Wavedrum when played with a decent trigger or velocity sensitive pads.
