Gorgeous gongs with a constantly evolving tone and full broad-spectrum ring. Recorded in 3 different scenarious. This sample library features a wide range of recordings of feng gongs and other gongs for cinematic scoring. The giant cymbals are dangling Feng gongs. With a very long reverberant tail, that we patiently deep-sampled.

Textural Gongs

For the innovative cinematic textural patches, we’ve experimented with different materials, rubbing superballs, fingernails, scrapes, scrubbing and effects on a variety of gongs and outboard effects.

We also mounted a bass speaker directly on large gongs, triggering different sorts of vibrations from there.  Contact microphones, placed directly on the metal, transmitted signals through hardware and sub speaker.

A finely varied library of gong strikes, rubbings and textures that you won't find anywhere else.

"It’s a feast of metallic and mysterious tones, across all frequency points, from bright to dark and brooding"

SHAPE SOUNDS FURTHER

With the FX engine engaged, you can create ever – evolving soundscapes and other riverlike oddities. Loosely controlled by an XY pad and different subtile parameters. 

The gongs recorded for Torus deliver powerful, musical sound at all volumes and excel playing live for a wide range of music styles. The dry-room session includes a wide dynamic range with 9 layers and 3 round robins.
