World Percussion Creator Kontakt Library
Create, control & generate your ethnic drum sound.
Ethnic, hand played and regional drums are often used to conjure the sound of distant lands, age-old civilizations, exotic wildlife and human adventure. World Percussion Creator is a virtual instrument sample library designed to convey this natural sound in a new, larger and more flexible way.
Where most libraries present limited variations, World Percussion Creator allows you to create, control and generate multiple solo and ensemble groups of your own from a selection of 36 drums and 36 small percussion instruments – all playable from a single interface.
Like the other Creator libraries, World Percussion Creator contains a strong collection of specialty booms, slams, deep impacts and “ethno atmospheres”, all designed to transform basic rhythms into polished drum tracks with greater emotional impact.
With a purpose-built engine, hundreds of MIDI files, and an innovative yet simple-to-use feature set, World Percussion Creator is a match for anyone producing world music drum tracks.
