| I really like this card.
Has some interesting samples. And maybe these samples would be hard to
use without sounding synthetic too, but they are exotic enough most people
wouldn't notice. I do like the fact the sounds are kinda exotic. Plus there
is a good variety here, from percussion to mallets and stringed instuments
and some sort of horn. The first tone is a combination of the different
hits and or tabla drums. The next 5 are the sounds separated. Then some
japanese percussion. I've never heard of a Gender before I assume it is
a mallet instrument of some sort. And a Sanza has a percussive element
to it's notes, pretty cool. A Barafon again must be mallet instrument.
The sitars sound good to this westerners ears. The Santur sounds similar
to a Ukrainian instrument I have heard where they use a mallet like thing
to hit the tuned strings. Maybe a few too many iterations of the Koto,
but I guess that's OK. I do really love the Koto tremo, it makes me think
of that famous M-1 patch with the tremolo mandolin. I hope to make something
kinda similar. The Sicu must be some kind of simple flute. And the Shanai
sounds very similar to bagpipes. Alot of cool sounds that I can't wait
to use!! |
