MODWHEEL have just released Angklung - The Bamboozler.

This is the 3rd release in their Creative Differences series of drum and percussion libraries, after HUMDRUM (calfskin drum set) and The Bends (metal meets water)

The Angklung is a musical instrument from Indonesia now popular throughout South East Asia. Made of two to four bamboo tubes attached to a bamboo frame. The tubes are carved to have a resonant pitch when struck and are often tuned to octaves. The base of the frame is held in one hand, whilst the other hand strikes the instrument. This causes a repeating note to sound.

Features:

• A collection of 24 tuned Bamboo Angklung
• 1470 samples recorded in stereo at 24-bit 96k
• 23 Kontakt patches of Single Hits, Rhythms, Rattles & Effects
• 24bit 96kHz Multisamples (1570 samples)
• 2.58GB Core Library (1.4GB via lossless compression)
• Requires full version of Kontakt 5.3 or higher

Each single patch has 10 round robins of both up and down playing. The up stroke plays on key release and the volume of the up stroke can be adjusted using the mod wheel. The Freeze patches feature a stutter key on C6 as well as envelope attack and release knobs.

ANGKLUNG - The Bamboozler also features a few patches that aren't bamboo derived. As part of the package, you also get:

• The Bambonezler - a patch made up of bones, shells and seed pods
• The Bamstonezler - a patch of slate stone hits that have been tuned and will play chromatically

NOTE: All instruments are in .nki format for Native Instruments Kontakt, requiring a full version of Kontakt 5.3 or higher.

The Bamboozler is available for the incredible introductory price of only $15 USD
