Players can work with these files directly in Miroslav Philharmonik 2 or SampleTank 3, or drag them into the DAW timeline for further editing. Orchestral Percussion also includes over over 100 MIDI patterns and over 400 audio loops covering “difficult-to-program” rolls, crescendos and other dynamic performances. Furthermore, multiple velocities are provided for the instruments to give them maximum dynamic range and tonal depth. By firing off unique samples for each received note, players will achieve a level of realism only matched by playing the actual physical instruments. Several timpani drums are placed in the stereo field with gentle but clear panning to provide realistic separation of each drum and the realism and depth expected and demanded of a modern orchestral percussion library.Īll instruments in Orchestral Percussion are provided with multiple round robin samples thus avoiding the “machine gun effect” of triggering the same sample over and over. Recorded in stereo at a top Hollywood studio using a carefully constructed array of top-quality Neumann® microphones placed at both mid-front and overhead positions, the timpani have both the presence and subtle ambience necessary to fit into any production from strict classical renditions to epic film cues to punchy pop tracks. The timpani are at the core of Orchestral Percussion. The most realistic percussion collection available Musicians should use the two collections together for an unrivaled treasure chest of percussion resources. Like Cinematic Percussion, IK again enlisted master percussionist Greg Ellis, known for his work on countless Hollywood blockbuster films, to perform the more traditional classical instruments of the Orchestral Percussion Instrument Collection. Specific instruments were chosen for Orchestral Percussion to perfectly complement the Cinematic Percussion set with no redundancy or overlap.
Orchestral Percussion is the sequel to IK’s much-acclaimed Cinematic Percussion Instrument Collection that is now being used on film, TV and pop productions the world over. Also included are the ultra-stylized articulations of three different classical snare drums along with flexible variations of sleighbells, tambourines, triangles, castanets, ratchet, bell tree and many other instruments performed with multiple round robins and recorded with pristine audio fidelity. Users of Miroslav Philharmonik 2 and SampleTank 3 will get the majesty of full-range, dynamic timpani, the stirring power of a massive 36” gran cassa orchestral bass drum, the unmistakable punctuation of symphonic chau gongs and piatti cymbals.

I don’t have this problem with any of my other virtual synths. Makes me wonder if they know it’s a bug, but can’t easily fix it? It fails with both of my MIDI controllers. I’ve contacted IK Multimedia several times, and they don’t seem to be interested in trying to debug the problem. Sometimes I can tweak the position of the notes in Piano Roll mode, and get some of them to play correctly. If I then go back and play it, the recorded notes behave similarly – either not playing at all, or starting late. This continues, with some notes working, and most of the others not. The next “note” I try to record may launch the loop in synch with where it’s intended to start, but the next one will then be off. However, when I go to record, I’ll hit a key on my MIDI controller, and it will either fail to launch the loop, or launch it with an obvious delay. If I replace ST3 with ST2, the keys no longer stick, and I can then use the MIDI controller to at least play along with existing tracks. I can get it to unstick if I click on the key with my mouse.
That is, if I press one of the appropriate keys on my MIDI controller, the corresponding key on the graphic user interface stays red, and the loop just keeps looping ad infinitum. (To be clear, here’s an example of a loop: Loops / Acoustic Drums / Processed Loops / Funk-Rock 7 Fatboy 93 bpm) Basically, I can’t even use the ST3 version, cuz the keys stick, even though I have “Latch Audio Loops” turned off. The problem seems to happen primarily when trying to record “Loops”, but has also happened when recording instruments like piano. Hi, Wondering if anybody else is having problems using IK Multimedia SampleTank 3 (ST3), or if it’s just me.
