Product Overview

Perfperc Volume III concludes the Perfperc series with a comprehensive collection of performance-sourced percussion, featuring an extensive array of toms and unique cymbals. The library showcases fifteen toms, including low, mid, high, and roto variants, all recorded with a wide dynamic range and multiple repetition speeds, making it suitable for both rhythmic and melodic applications.

Details

The instrument includes four low, mid, and high toms, as well as three rototoms, each playable with various mallet types such as brushes, rods, and drumsticks. Additionally, it features kick drums and untraditionally sampled cymbals, including muted bell hits that resemble an anvil sound. Each articulation is captured with up to fifteen dynamics and three repetition speeds, allowing for expressive performance and playable rolls.

Recorded in a hall, the library offers close and Decca mic positions, providing options for both clarity and spaciousness. The sampling approach emphasizes performance, resulting in a natural feel with a slight delay of 80 ms, which enhances cohesion in rhythmic passages. A "tighten" control allows for adjustment of this delay, although the library is optimized for the longer setting. This thoughtful design makes Perfperc Volume III a versatile tool for composers looking to incorporate rich, dynamic percussion into their scores.
