Up to 47 articulations per orchestral section.
Thanks to the consistency of articulations, you are able to play all the instruments easily together for instant rhythmic insanity.ģ trucks full of percussion instruments and 111 musicians were recorded:Ī ready to play set, composed to dive in:Ĩ orchestral sections (High Strings, Low Strings, String Quintet, Trumpet Ens, Horn Ens, Low Brass Ens, Low Woodwinds Ens, High Woodwinds Ens) To join these two parts properly, the recorded articulations match perfectly. Team up the orchestra and the percussion to program complex and rich-sounding rhythmic patterns and gestures. It combines an enormous rhythmically driven orchestra with the loudest and beefiest percussion instruments we have ever recorded. Metropolis Ark 3 is the ultimate orchestral beat machine. Where other percussion libraries draw the line, we bring in a colossal orchestra which is treated like a percussion instrument. Giant machines are quiet compared to those huge taiko ensemble kits and drums of doom.
Is it percussion? Is it an orchestra? It is both but melted and refined into one: A Percussive Orchestra. Metropolis Ark 3 - The Beating Orchestra - is the third instalment in our epic orchestral series.
