Tonehammer Bamblong KONTAKT (1 dvd)

Tonehammer Bamblong KONTAKT (1 dvd)

The Bamblong is a small tuned percussion instrument,
similar in principle to a marimba. It has 4 bamboo
resonance chambers, roughly ranging between 11/2
21/4 inches wide and 8 14 inches long, with sound
holes in the top of each. The playing surfaces are
thin bamboo planks, suspended on pegs over each bamboo
log.It came with a set of mallets with flat, round
heads that appear to be carved out of bicycle tire.
It has a very crisp yet mellow, raspy note with a
short sustain. We captured it both wet and dry, using
our old favorite hall and our large recording booth.
We used close micing techniques in both to get a
responsive, warm, present and intimate sound. We
sampled the instrument exhaustively, with an average
of 20 velocity layers per note and a standard 10
round robin variations per layer. We also recorded
strikes and rolls using nylon jazz brushes in the
dry set.

As a bonus, weve included a selection of dynamic
ambient patches, using only the Bamblong as our
source material. Its natural sonic properties
carry over clearly into these soundscapes, providing
ready made textural accompaniment.
As an added bonus, weve included a large set of
convolution reverb impulses, carefully recorded in
the same hall as our epic instruments, as well as as
the wet version of the Bamblong. We did our best to
capture the breath and clarity of the room, to allow
you to bring any instrument you like into that same
acoustical space. They are encoded in standard wave
format, so any major convolution reverb plugin should
be able to open them, including the built in
convolution effect in Kontakt 2/3.
