Collection d'instruments à percussion et tambours chinoise

"Peking Opera Percussion" est le deuxième instrument virtuel de Yellow River Sound, qui s´est spécialisé avec passion dans la reproduction des instruments traditionnels chinois.

Peking Opera Percussion GUI

La collection contient d´autres instruments à percussion communément utilisés dans la musique chinoise contemporaine, tels que les tambours hauts de 4 pieds, joués en solo et en ensembles, différents gongs et cymbales, sans oublier l´unique Bianzhong qui fut trouvé dans la tombe du Marquis Yi of Zeng, un instrument très ancien datant de 433 années avant JC, consistant en un ensemble de cloches suspendues à un cadre en bois et frappées à la mailloche.

Une reproduction samplée de très haut niveau, menée par des producteurs chinois connaissant parfaitement les instruments. Afin de permettre une approche progressive dans votre appropriation de la culture rythmique de l´opéra chinois, des modèles MIDI sont fournis.

Concept

YRS Peking Opera Percussion includes layers in four categories: Jingda, Drum, Bell, Cymbal/Gong. We sampled the most often used articulations in Chinese percussion, some layers with up to 16 velocity levels; allowing absolutely detailed and dynamic
performances. 

Screen layouts

Most of the layers have their unique screen layout. You will learn how the real instruments look like; while listening to their sound. On some layers, the individual instrument that is actually playing will be highlighted. This will help you to familiarize with the Chinese percussions.
Roll crossfade
Drum layers include a roll crossfade mapping, which can be controlled via CC1. This is a useful feature for reproducing a realistic crescendo.
Close Mic and Room Mic
All layers have close mic and room mic samples. You can use the dry/wet control to adjust the balance between them.

Instruments

  • Jingda - This folder contains 2 sets of Peking Opera Percussion which include Bangu, Ban, Muyu, Gong, Cymbal, MIDI files: The lower sections are new grooves made by composer Zhang Jian, the higher sections are traditional grooves, including various intros and endings, which can be used to reproduce the Peking Opera scene.
  • Jingda Wen - This percussion set is lower in pitch, which is commonly used in non-action type scenes.
  • Jingda Wu - This percussion set is higher in pitch, which is mainly used for action, fights or similar scenes.

Bianzhong has 3 rows, with some bells having the same pitch on different rows, so they differ in tone.

Amazona.de Sehr GutAuszug/Fazit

Peking Opera Percussion ist natürlich speziell, aber dennoch nicht nur für sinologisch veranlagte Musiker relevant. Sowohl im Vertonungsbereich, als auch für diverse Musikstile lassen sich hier interessante und wenig „abgenutzte“ Klänge finden. Nichts für Routinearbeit, aber für experimentierfreudige Musiker durchaus zu empfehlen.

Fazit: Peking Opera Percussion ist eine Library mit außergewöhnlichen Schlaginstrumenten, die qualitativ gut und sehr natürlich aufgenommen wurden. Während sich die Trommeln auch universell einsetzen lassen versprühen die meisten Sounds einen deutlich chinesischen Charakter. WEr genau das sucht, findet in dieser Library zu einem guten Preis gut spielbare Instrumente. Jan-Soeren Haas, Keys
