Glass and Steel
Tuned percussion from another universe
Tuned percussion from another universe
Discover Spitfire's secret weapon — a collection of tuned percussion sounds created from 'found' glass, metal and china, morphed, warped and sequenced into metallic hits, rhythmic tension beds, distorted sub basses and epic, shimmering pads. Recorded on our dry stage at Spitfire Studios, 45 instruments and objects ranging from metal bowls to wine glasses were played by world renowned percussionist Paul Clarvis in innovative ways to achieve a variety of unidentifiable sounds and glistening overtones. Presented in our versatile eDNA interface for instant playability and inspiration, we also give you 235 presets, designed to inspire and take your compositions to new places.
