Welcome to our Cinematic Gongs and Giant Cymbals sample library! This collection features a wide range of high-quality recordings of gongs and giant cymbals. The giant cymbals are dangling Feng gongs, with a very long tail, that we have patiently deep-sampled.
Whether you’re scoring a film, creating trailer music, sound-design, or working on any other type of project, Torus will enrich your tracks. From deep, resonant acoustic gongs to massive, thundering textures and rolls. This library has everything you need to add powerful, cinematic moments in your compositions.
I
Dryroom Session
Feng Gong that will blend smoothly into drum tracks and rhythm sections. We recorded up to 9 velocity layers x3rr
II
Hall Session
Feng gong articulations recorded in a hall. A good addendum to orchestral recordings and filmusic scenarious.
III
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.
