Cosmic Hand Pans

Stahlzungen-Trommeln für Kontakt Player

Cosmic Hand Pans enthält eine komplette Sammlung virtueller Handpan-Instrumente aus Stahl. Soundiron hat sich mit dem Instrumentenbauer Grahm Doe von Hapi Drum zusammengetan, um ein klassisches D-Moll-Handpan in exquisiten Details einzufangen sowie zwei ungewöhnliche Hybride, die jeweils einen ganz eigenen Klangcharakter haben, den Sie nirgendwo sonst hören werden. Die traditionelle Handpan hat einen unverwechselbar dunklen warmen, weichen Ton mit einer gespenstischen und ätherischen Resonanz, die reich an harmonischen Obertönen ist. Es wurde mit Fingerpads und Fingerspitzen sowie mit kleinen weichen Gummischlägeln und Jazz-Brushes aufgenommen, um Ihnen eine Vielzahl von Klangoptionen zu bieten.

Next Soundiron sampled two unique specimens resulting from Grahm's quest to meld steel hand pans and tongue drums into a unified instrument. The first mutation is a Prototype fusion of a standard tongue drum and a handpan resonator face that was the first step on his blow-torch and pneumatic-hammer driven journey. It has a brash, plucky steel drum quality with intense and chaotic overtones. The durable steel tongues allow for much more aggressive articulations, including soft and hard rubber mallets and metal rods.

The second oddity is his signature Hybrid Handpan, a well-balanced and precisely-engineered instrument with standard handpan finger dimples on its face, tuned to match playable tongue drum tines on its belly. Each side has a distinct character that compliments the other. They recorded soft rubber finger mallets and sustaining finger rolls on the handpan face, as well as superball and giant rubber mallets on the tongues. With our intuitive multi-layered modular UI, you'll enjoy complete freedom to mix, layer, retune and customize each sound to your heart's content.

The Kontakt interface includes a suite of automation-ready sound-shaping controls to give you total creative flexibility. You have control over swell, attack, release, offset, vibrato, filter, pitch (coarse & fine), articulation switching, cross-fading and layering, and so much more.

This library comes with an adaptable LFO system, with selectable LFO shape, modulation target parameter, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in time. You can also apply your choice of 12 lowpass, high-pass and FX filters, with assignable modulation targets such as velocity, modwheel, expression, after-touch, key position and step-sequencer table control. Soundiron's customizable arpeggiator offers a velocity table and control over arp direction, timing, swing, randomization and duration. They’ve included a key and scale lock system to constrain your notes to common scales and keys for easy melodic composition and live performance.

The interface is rounded-out by their modular FX rack panel, with 27 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 8 available slots, in any order that you wish. You’ll find classic phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more. The Reverb effect includes our favorite convolution reverb impulse responses, including 99 different rooms, halls, chambers and outdoor environments, plus another 40 custom FX impulses to radically transform the sound and open up whole new worlds of musical possibility. They’ve added a great bank of FX rack chain factory presets to get you started!
