Noah Kellys Sonic Circus

A Carnival of Curious Percussion

Noah Kelly’s Sonic Circus is a curated collection of strange and unconventional tuned percussion instruments, designed for playful, off-kilter music and imaginative sound design. From Bottlephone and Hornaphone to tuned cowbells, Pipe Machine, and a children’s glockenspiel, this library delivers chromatic instrument sets with distinctive articulations, captured and engineered by Soundiron’s percussion specialist David Oliver.

Beyond the raw instruments, Sonic Circus includes 20 sound-designed elements and factory presets, ranging from textured leads to evolving pads, plus an intuitive interface with LFOs, filters, arpeggiator, and key and scale lock for fast creative results. Compatible with Kontakt 6.6+, Decent Sampler, and SFZ, it’s a compact but characterful toolkit for composers who like their melodies a little odd and their percussion anything but ordinary.
