62 unique instruments featuring a variety of traditional performance hit types and most utilising six “round-robin” samples for each type of hit, where upon playing a hit one of six samples is randomly selected. This provides expressive and realistic sample playback, with a subtle and ever-changing tone, rather than simply repeating the same sample over and over.
All percussion instruments can also be played as pitched instruments by choosing one of ten available keyboard mapped samples, which is particularly useful for layering with synthesizer instruments.
For multi-bell percussion instruments, like the Agogos, which features more than one pitch, each pitch is independently tunable.
