Team DECiBEL | 31 Dec 2019 | 224.0MB
Though called “Broken Bells,” bells are not the only thing that was sampled. While we did sample some traditional bells, we also sampled tibetan singing bowls, kitchen mixing bowls, vases, wine glasses other random objects which gave a “ringing” sound which we thought was cool. We also bowed a variety of objects, including the objects mentioned above, but also a giant tin cylinder which once held the Christmas popcorn from last year. Broken Bells marks the direct opposite to our library Talua since it focuses on the dark and rusty nature of hit and bowed bell tones while Talua carries those crystal sounding glass instruments so if you’re in need for that rusty and dirty and also really imperfect bell sounds then Broken Bells is for you.
SOUND
Broken Bells comes with a simple to use UI only carrying the most essential features like Filter, ADSR, Sound Shaping controls etc. You will see below that it definitely has some interesting features to shape the sounds.
SHAPE
The Shape Controls give you a bit deeper control about the sound of the selected instrument. Note that this works for each instrument individually in case you want to dynamically switch between instruments via Keyswitch and set it up inside one patch. You have control over settings like panorama position, advanced sample start point, volume envelope etc. Besides that is there also a filter part where you can for example apply an envelope to to further shape the raw instrument. We did also not include any further effects like delay, chorus etc. since most of the time our customers are using their own gear or plugins and therefore you only get the most essential tone shaping effects. – Body, which is basically a very short convolution reverb to voluminize the overall sound – Tape, which drives the incoming signal from the instruments through a tape saturator – LowPass Filter – Output Amplifier – Master Stereo Width – 3 Band Master Equalizer with limited gain ranges Of course you also have the option to change performance settings like Timing, Vibrato, Velocity or Expression.
