Flying Hand Percussion

High-End Percussion Einzelsounds mit über 40,000 Samples auf vier DVDs. Die Aufnahmen wurden in 24 Bit mit verschiedensten Mikrofonpositionierungen aufgezeichnet. Bis zu 20 Dynamikzonen (von leise bis laut) pro Instrument inkl. umfangreicher Auswahl an Artikulationen mit wiederum bis zu vier Variationen, lassen erahnen, mit welcher Sorgfalt der Produzent Eitan Teomi den individuellen Klangcharakter einer jeden Perkussion eingefangen hat.

Die enthaltenen akustischen Instrumente:

• 4 Anklungs – Asian bamboo rattlers
• 2 Boomwhackers

Neben dem Hauptanteil akustisch-, authentischer Instumente ist auch eine Sparte elektronischer Instrumente enthalten:

• Die ´Morphosis´ Sektion bietet einzigartige Resonanzsounds der ursprünglichen Instrumente im Konstruktion Kit Format. Demos anhören! 

• Die ´Mutants´ Sektion enthält gepitchte und bearbeitete Versionen der Akustik- Abteilung, die nach neuartigen Instrumenten klingen. Bestens geeignet für bombastische Kinosoundeffekte. 

FHP enthält eine einzigartige Technik, die intelligent zu den gespielten Phrasen agiert. So wird eine Perkussion z.B. nie an der exakt selben Stelle angeschlagen, oder es erklingt an den charakteristischen Stellen das Streifen der Hand über diese. Alle Sounds sind anwenderfreundlich gemappt, so dass sich das Ganze auch sehr gut auf der Keyboardtastatur einspielen lässt. Keymappings für den Zendrum MIDI Controller und eine spezielle Version des PsP Audioware Nitro Filterbank Plug-Ins gibts obendrein.

(EM HOTPICK) 5/5 

" The benefit of the FHP approach is its remarkable attention to detail. It's hard to think of a hand drumming artifact or technique that has been overlooked.

FHP's keyboard mapping proved very musical, with slight performance variations adjacently arrayed and smooth velocity switches under each hit.

FHP delivers lots of sonic control, as you'd expect from a hand-precussion instrument. Transitions between velocity layers feels smooth and continuous, adding a realistic playing experience to FHP's sonic authenticity.

FlyingHand Percussion is one of the most detailed, lifelike, collections of sampled hand-percussion instruments i've found. Innovative and thoughtful application of Kontakt 2's features breathes a remarkable amount of life into performances. FHP gets my highest reccomendation..."


Recording magazine -

" These sounds possess a detailed level of tone and harmonics; handheld sound captured the personality and nuance of each drum quite well...

Through detilaed velocity layers, and the unique Legato Drumming scripting in Kontakt, these sample sets have the potential to trick the ear into thinking it's hearing the real thing. This level of control places FlyingHand up there with other high-end virtual instrument programs...

It is the first one (library) I had heard in a long time that I would seriously consider to use in my own music, both in compostion and live...From the packaging to the sampling to the playing paradigm, this is a well-crafted artisan production that simply sounds incredible..."


Virtual Instrument magazine -

" FlyingHand Percussion is just beautifuly recorded with a lot of presence from multiple mic positions and the sampling performance has a whole lot of life.

The main thing about this library is how good your parts sound as soon as you play them in, with very little tweaking.

...I was frankly stunned at how live it sounded when I sat back to listen.

The library comes beautifuly packaged in an earthy hexagonal box; this is obviously a product that took great dedication and passion to produce. That comes across right away when you use it."


Sound On Sound magazine -

"...the sounds are wonderfully responsive and recorded to the highest standards...
Some of the ensembles are really well put together, and are a gift to anyone working in the area of soundtracks to Film or TV...
There's more variation that you could wish for...the performnace really come alive as you tap the keys or drum pads."
