Please Note: This product requires the full version of Kontakt. It will not work with the free version of Kontakt Player.

Ambient Metals

Antique Metal Percussion (AMP) is a very unique kontakt sample library which is derived from banging (lightly) on a handful of metal antique items.

Some of the items heard in this sample library are “one of a kind” and include an old iron bedrail, a library book cart, an old seaside lantern from the North East, a “Childs” brand copper fire extinguisher from the turn of the century (which sounds really cool), a WWII .50 Caliber Metal Ammunition Box, and even a decommissioned WWII Mk27 Hand Grenade.

Each antique has a very unique timbre you will not find anywhere else.

Scripted Control

Should you want to tinker a bit with the patches (and you are certainly encouraged to), the included GUI makes it very easy to tweak a handful of the most important parameters and includes toggle able convolution reverb (with custom and select able impulse responses), a built in Arpeggiator, pitch control, control of the attack and release of each instrument, ability to control the low, med, and hi EQ range.

On top of that, every hit has 4 X round robins to help fight repetition and all of the instruments are velocity sensitive. There are also tons of FX atonal pads, huge FX hits, reversals, and scrapes... which is some horrific / dramatic stuff.
