Introduced in 1971 by the German company Hohner -- mostly known for their melodicas and harmonicas -- came the Hohner Model D6. Hohner had released some models before this, and would release some after the D6, but this was without question THE model to have! It has appeared on thousands of recordings and has become the funky trademark of countless artists such as Stevie Wonder on his hit Superstition.By using the disk streaming technique, it has been possible for the first time to reproduce the tone and feel of the original Hohner D6. This sampled instrument has all of the possible tonal presets, sampled at 3 different velocities and with 3 different damper settings. The Hohner D6 has been sampled in thirds, that is, C, D#, F# and A has been sampled for the entire range of the keyboard giving a total more then 1000 samples! The sampled instruments contain no loops!!! All samples are left with its natural decay. This is truly the mother of all sampled D6's! ... Read more

Following the success of Spektral Minimalism (2001), Sony sought to provide gifted composer / producer James Johnson with as large a palate as possible upon which to cast his second contribution to our catalog. Slow Silhouette is the result - a double disc collection of long, sparse music segments designed for creating sustained, non-looping musical passages. Used alone, each segment exists in a single, simple, yet highly refined sound space. Layering these sounds will allow you to create an infinite number of stunning buildups, transitions, or even complete long form pieces of flowing, seamlessly composed music. Slow Silhouette is a cinematographer's dream of music made real, an ambient music lover's delight, and another milestone in the Sony catalog, which celebrates diversity and constantly strives to provide the world's finest audio content to meet any production objective. ...

The DS Soundware Orchestral percussion library is the first sample library dedicated to giving composers and arrangers a true pallet of orchestral percussion sounds with capabilities unmatched by anything else available. Due to revolutionary miking techniques, the samples were recorded with the natural acoustics of a professional hall built in. This allows sounds to instantly meld into your work with little or no additional spacial placement. Instruments sound like they are coming from their correct position in the ensemble, instead of the "in-your-face" sounds you're used to. Sampling the best instruments played by professional orchestral percussionists has created the highest quality, most realistic percussion samples available. Each instrument is provided with a vast array of performance possibilities including right- and left-hand snare hits for realistic rapid passages; consonant and dissonant triangle strikes to create the perfect tonal shading; tambourines with right- and left-hand samples; thumb rolls; shake rolls; crescendos; multiple pairs of crash cymbals with sustained crashes; choked crashes and scrapes; suspended cymbal rolls; mallet hits; stick hits; chokes; bells; and scrapes. Mallet instruments and timpani have multiple mallet choices and are all velocity-switched allowing incredibly realistic dynamic changes. Also included is a great collection of exotic percussion: wind chimes, thunder... ... Read more
