Soundiron has announced the release of Apocalypse Percussion Elements – Kontakt Player Edition, a streamlined concert ensemble and solo percussion collection powered By Native Instruments’ Kontakt Player engine.

The lighter and more affordable Elements just focuses on the aggressive, punchy sound of APE’s close stereo mic position for single-stroke multisampled articulations. It’s designed with your workflow, with a modular interface, intuitive and easy-to-use workflow and instant sound shaping tools, with the power to dial in you sound. You can dynamically arpeggiate and import customizable midi clips and use our built in DSP to find that perfect tone or completely warp and mutate the sound.

Apocalypse Elements features over 40 different drums of all shapes and sizes, with ~100 articulations, 8x round-robin and deep velocity layering. You’ll find thunderous ensemble and solo bass drums, toms in all sizes, dhols, riqs, frame drums, bongos, octobans, djembes, cajons, doumbeks, a massive snare ensemble and 6 solo snare drum types. We’ve also got stick clicks, clacks, hi-hats, rides, crashes, splashes, hybrid and FX cymbals, gongs, finger cymbals and so much more.

Apocalypse Percussion Elements is available to purchase at Soundiron and distributor Plugin Boutique, priced $99 USD.
