Discover the hidden sounds of steel. Parallelogram is a boutique Kontakt library of industrial sculptures turned into playable cinematic instruments. Bowed, struck, and scraped for infinite inspiration.
Parallelogram features recordings of metallic sculptures and objects. From deep metal impacts to soaring bowed pitches.
Flavourful Kontakt samples from Haunted stingers to soaring bowed pitches, eerie textures and disturbed percussion
Cosmic sounding hits and strikes, spooky bowed pitches, and subharmonic friction coos.
With contakt-mics, we captured deep continuing sound through vibration,to evoke a strong cinematic connection and lasting impact
Bored of taiko drums? Think differently! : Parallelogram offers sculptural metal sounds recorded with contact mics for an internal, immersive character.
