Bigger Bangs!
From thunderous hits to shimmering metallic accents, percussion is the heartbeat of every great score. Recorded on the majestic Stage A of Vienna Synchron Stage, BBO Percussion captures the raw energy, precision, and power of up to six world-class players performing together in one of the finest acoustic spaces on the planet. These performances embody the thrilling intensity that defines today’s cinematic sound – bold, organic, and deeply musical.
The Flow of Pure Energy
BBO Percussion includes the full sample content of the previously available BBO Packs Dorado (Percussion Ensembles) and Fornax (Pitched Percussion Ensembles) in one easily accessible package. Enhanced by Vienna’s new Flow View for intuitive browsing and an uninterrupted creative workflow, this powerful collection gives you instant access to the driving force of the Big Bang Orchestra – a vibrant world of rhythm, resonance, and sheer orchestral impact. It also includes a collection of MIDI loops that can be played and customized directly within the Synchron Player.
Percussion Ensembles
Big, fat percussion sounds are the backbone of every epic arrangement, adding weight, motion, and drama to your music. Recorded with up to six percussionists performing together on Stage A, these ensembles capture the human energy and precision that bring orchestral rhythm to life with unmatched depth and authenticity.
The Percussion Ensembles feature a stunning variety of setups divided into two main groups – Skins and Metals. The Skins category includes Monster Drums, Bass Drums, Thunder Toms, Special Drums, and a Snare Drum Ensemble. The Metals category offers Suspended Cymbals, Super Crashes, Big Metal, and Small Metal. By combining instruments from both categories, you can span the entire frequency spectrum and harness the exhilarating energy of up to twelve instruments sounding together.
All instruments were recorded simultaneously in three stage positions – left, center, and right – using an array of close, overhead, Decca Tree, surround, and high surround microphones. This setup allows complete flexibility within the Synchron Player, letting you shape your mix from focused punch to cinematic spaciousness.
Pitched Percussion Ensembles
Expanding the sonic spectrum of the Big Bang Orchestra, the Pitched Percussion Ensembles explore the fascinating intersection of rhythm and harmony – a sound that’s both percussive and melodic. These unique ensembles feature up to six musicians performing together, combining the power of three concert grands (Steinway D-274, Bösendorfer Imperial, and Yamaha CFX) with plate bells, tubular bells, vibraphone, gongs, timpani, taikos, and more.
The setups are divided into Low Range and High Range instruments. The Low Range ensembles offer deep, resonant combinations – such as pianos, plate bells, tubular bells, pitched gongs, timpani, and bass drums – while the High Range setups add brilliance and shimmer with plate bells, tubular bells, vibraphone, suspended cymbals, gongs, and triangle. Each configuration was meticulously designed to cover the full frequency range, from mysterious low textures to radiant high accents.
