Ultimate Timpani Library

Sample CD

Using a set of Hinger Touch Tone timpani with calf heads, this six-disc library contains every performance nuance to allow the most realistic timpani imaginable. These incredible drums produce tones not possible with any standard drums using conventional heads. Five mallets from a warm legato cartwheel to wood have been recorded at eight velocity levels for amazing flexibility and playability. Adding to the realism, both right and left hand samples are included to make fast articulate passages flow seamlessly and realistically.

Files for each mallet include: hits (right and left hands) at eight velocities, rolls at four velocities with release triggers programmed for realistic roll endings, crescendo and decrescendo rolls at three lengths, and true hand muffled strikes at eight velocities. DS has also included a fingers and hand patch at four velocities (right and left hands) ranging from a light tap with one finger to the entire hand at "ff". And don't forget the standard "special effect" timpani sounds including; glissando rolls, bowl hits, booming detuned earthy tones, and eerie rolling glissando's with a cymbal on the head.
