Fracture Sounds has announced the release of its new Kontakt Player powered Box Factory, a unique cinematic percussion library featuring a 40-piece ensemble of cardboard boxes.
Recorded with 6 performers in a concert hall, the library features 13 unique ensembles ranging from large to small boxes played with a range of stick types and performance techniques.
The sound of Box Factory is familiar, yet totally unique. It is presented in a way that will feel at home if you’ve used any other percussion library – you can approach in the same way as you would toms, taikos and snares – yet it offers a certain organic, raw and tactile sound that is unlike any conventional percussion instrument.
Whether used as the sole percussion instrument in a composition (as is the case with all the demo tracks on this page), or layered with other drums, the diverse tones and flexible sound-shaping controls offered by Box Factory will be an essential sonic ingredient for anyone looking to freshen up their percussion palette.
