Embertone has announced the release of its Jug Drums Complete sound library for Native Instruments Kontakt.
What happens when you lock two sound designers in a space with 5 water jugs, 5 microphones, a laptop and an audio interface? Pure #$!@ing magic, that’s what! With oodles of round robins, 4 different playing styles, and a dynamic range equipped to shake things up, you’re going to love this instrument… It’s a new angle on the concept of “epic drumming”
The 4 playing styles are mapped out equally over 4 octaves. From highest to lowest they are: 1) Hand (muted) 2) Hand (ring out) 3) Timpani Mallet 4) Stick. This instrument is FUN to play, just try not to waste too much time noodling around with it.
Note: Native Instruments Kontakt version 4.2 or later full retail versions required. Free Kontakt Player will only work for 30 minutes with this product.
The sample library is available to purchase for $25 USD.
