Karanyi Sounds has launched a limited time “Midsummer Stars” promotion on the Budapest Abstract Marimba, offering a discount of 85% off on the Kontakt instrument in collaboration with percussionist Nandor Weisz.

Contemporary sounding Budapest Marimba designed for creating fast sequences and inspiring tremolo beds for contemporary sound production. Unlike traditional marimba libraries, Karanyi focused on transient rich, bright sounds and they also added some synth and ambience sublayers to fit in any genres from electronic, jazz to film score.

  • 6 marimba articulations with soft, medium, hard sticks, and an additional brush layer.
  • Transient rich sampling with close (1x Shure SM57) and mid microphone (2x AT35) positions.
  • Add a subtle weight or extra character with analogue synth layers, tape, dimension and space effects.
  • Recorded in Budapest, performed by Nandor Weisz, percussionist of the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra.

Available for the full version of Kontakt 5.8.1 or higher, the sample library is priced only $9 USD (regular $59 USD).
