Product Overview
Khosso features a collection of organic character percussion, blending pitched and unpitched elements with a distinct raspy, reedy quality. This library explores the unique sound of the balafon alongside other instruments like the dholak and gamelan, resulting in a diverse array of gentle yet unusual percussion sounds.
Details
The library includes six single instruments, each offering up to 15 articulations. Articulations range from single hits and rolls to various tremolo techniques, allowing for expressive performance. Three mic positions—two close and one room—provide flexibility in capturing the intimate timbre while retaining the natural distortion characteristic of the instruments.
In addition to traditional percussion sounds, Khosso features processed patches that expand its sonic palette, making it suitable for creating intricate beats and patterns. The SINE engine enhances usability with options for auto keyswitching and easy remapping, streamlining the workflow for composers. This library is well-suited for projects that require unique rhythmic textures and organic soundscapes.
