MCE4 Sdpr

• A rusty drum machine sample library designed for unique sonic character.
• Requires Kontakt.

Product Overview

MCE4 Sdpr is a sample library featuring a collection of rusty drum machine sounds, designed for use in Kontakt. This library captures a variety of acoustic drum samples, including unique prepared steel drums, offering a gritty, characterful tone suitable for eclectic compositions.

Details

The library includes over 400 original 24-bit binaurally recorded samples, featuring a diverse range of percussion instruments such as bass drums, snares, toms, and various metallic sounds. The prepared steel drums are played with fingers and soft mallets, creating a distinct sound that avoids the typical steel drum timbre, leaning more towards a rustic aesthetic.

Two main engines, the Bang Engine and Klang Engine, allow for user-programmable sequencers with multiple tracks and sound options per note. The One Shot Kit page provides extensive control over individual note articulations, including options for jitter, release, and various rhythmic repeats. Additionally, built-in effects such as convolution reverb and transient shaping enhance the overall sound design capabilities.

With its unique tonal palette and flexible programming options, MCE4 Sdpr is well-suited for creating unconventional beats, acoustic electronic music, or even cinematic scores that require a touch of rawness and character.
