Two patches from the Texture-folder in Falcon Singles - HANG in ambient action, some Macro/modwheel and volume automation. I'm aiming for Monday to release this, maybe earlier.

So here come the HANG:

Falcon Singles - HANG

Multi-sampled HANG percussion, deeply sampled with plenty of articulations, textures and electronic derivatives. The nine pitches of the Hang were sampled at 5 velocity layers and 6x round robin, two articulations were sampled (mallet/hand), also the backside of the Hang was captured, producing some remarkable sub-bass tones. Dynamic tremolos for each pitch (hand/fingers/mallet) were also recorded, dozens of little rubber balls were inserted into the instrument creating sublime pentatonic textures, wavetables were extracted from Hang samples, textural Hang sounds were re-synthesized and processed with a plethora of sonic tools to compose a unique collection of mellow, beautiful, mysterious, haunting and new-age sounds. The original tuning of the Hang was preserved in many patches, in quite a few presets there is a Macro installed which will tune the samples to the traditional tempered tuning.

Up to 25 Macros and switches are assigned in each patch, most presets make use of the modulation wheel, many patches also use aftertouch and modulation via velocity, providing detailed control over volume envelopes, filtering, amplitude- and pitch modulations, dynamics, EQ, stereo animation and more. 
All patches use some sort of background image in the UI, split patches have colored key-zones in the Falcon keyboard for easier navigation.

All Hang samples were produced at a resolution of wav 48Khz/24 Bit/stereo - recorded in L-C-R with 3 Neumann microphones, all signals are phase-aligned.

Here is a first demo for the next release from the Falcon Singles-series -> Crotales.

Improvising with the patch Bowed Crotales from Falcon Singles - Crotales, 2 octaves of chromatically sample bowed crotales with 2x round robin, sample start modulation via velocity can be dialed in with a Macro and lots of other things too, some automation of the Rotary FX (mix/speed) is happening in the demo.

Improvising with the patch "Gliss Bells" from the upcoming library Falcon Singles - Water Bells, 2x round robin water bells, the glissando in the bell samples is caused by dipping the bell into water after the attack, some occasional water drops, the patch is running in multi-granular mode.

As usual Simon, you do beautiful work. I don't really buy a lot of libraries, but I find your work very inspiring. I envy your access to cool instruments too LOL! But, it isn't just the instruments. You definitely have a hard earned signature and quality to your libraries.
If you have to ask, you can't afford the answer

Thank you for the flowers, I constantly search for new instruments and sound sources in the open field to sample and can't stop torturing my mind how to treat these sounds and transform them into something, I haven't done yet. Drowning those Nepalese bells and singing bowls in my bathtub definitely was an experience, trying not to ruin those expensive mics with water splashes :)

As before, with these smaller libs I don't do preorders, but as license holder of Resurrection for Alchemy 2 you'll get a big discount anyway.
