carago -未来的古鼓
Cartago是一个Kontakt图书馆,围绕着大量的古代,现代和定制设计的电影打击乐器而建。与著名声音设计师Stefano Maccarelli合作创建-其广受赞誉的作品包括Ethera声乐库系列,Elements, Kepler等- Cartago提供了丰富的精心制作的声音阵列,组织在两个非常强大的Kontakt乐器中。
Cartago拥有广泛的声学和设计的打击乐器,从经典的管弦乐低音鼓,定音鼓和陷阱定制罗马定音鼓和各种框架鼓。传统的世界乐器也有很好的代表,包括日本的taiko,中东的darbukas和西非的djembes,以及罕见的特色乐器,如crotala, tintinnabula, sistrum和scabellum。
Cartago是结构成两个多功能的乐器:原声打击音序器和设计鼓套件。这两种乐器都是为直观的,作曲家友好的体验而设计的,使无缝打击序列和鼓的设计既富有创造性又高效。
1. 原声打击音序器
原声打击音序器乐器具有51个多采样鼓。
每个鼓有12个圆形知更鸟,多达7个动态水平和3个麦克风位置(关闭1,关闭2,房间)。Close 1和Close 2的麦克风位置根据采样鼓的不同而变化:对于框架鼓,分别对应前鼓和后鼓,而对于不同大小和形状的鼓,则采用其他配置。
对于每个鼓,记录了3种不同的打击:对于较大的鼓,如taiko, Bass鼓或较大的框架鼓,这些分别对应于Centre, Middle和Border,而其他发音则用于较小的鼓。
该乐器有3个独立的层,为了结合不同的打击声音,总共有9种不同的声音可以同时从键盘上演奏。
此外,声学打击音序器的特点是基于多个可互换的实时模式的多步音序器,并进一步控制如表达,紧密度和规模进一步,更具表现力的动态控制。
2. 设计鼓组
设计鼓套件是一个声音设计为导向的仪器,具有超过2200个一次性样品。它被设计成创造性地层和操纵预先设计的鼓和打击样品,并在手指击鼓MPC时尚玩他们。事实上,设计鼓套件是基于16个独立的垫(在GUI的左边),声音可以加载到。
设计鼓套件的基本概念可以概括为:加载任何声音到任何垫,映射任何垫到MIDI控制器上的任何键。你想要一个有16种不同踢音的乐器吗?你可以。你想加载非常相同的圈套样本上的每16个垫和操作它独立每个垫?你可以。您想通过探索大量的一次性选择来创建自己的工具包?你可以。

CARTAGO – Ancient Drums of the Future
Cartago is a Kontakt library built around an extensive collection of ancient, modern, and custom-designed cinematic percussions. Created in collaboration with renowned sound designer Stefano Maccarelli — whose acclaimed works include the Ethera vocal library series, Elements, Kepler, and many more — Cartago offers a rich array of meticulously crafted sounds organised in two highly powerful Kontakt instruments.
Cartago features a wide selection of both acoustic and designed percussive instruments, from classic orchestral bass drums, timpani, and snares to custom Roman Timpana and various frame drums. Traditional world instruments are also well represented, including Japanese Taikos, Middle-Eastern darbukas, and West African djembes, alongside rare idiophones like the crotala, tintinnabula, sistrum, and scabellum.
Cartago is structured into two versatile instruments: the Acoustic Percussions Sequencer and the Designed Drums Kit. Both instruments are designed for an intuitive, composer-friendly experience, enabling seamless percussion sequencing and drum design that’s as creative as it is efficient.
1. ACOUSTIC PERCUSSIONS SEQUENCER
The Acoustic Percussions Sequencer instruments features 51 multi-sampled drums.
Each drum features 12 round robins, up to 7 dynamic levels and 3 microphone positions (Close 1, Close 2, Room). The microphone position of Close 1 and Close 2 changes according to the sampled drum: for frame drums, they respectively correspond to front and back, whereas other configurations are used for drums of different size and shape.
For each drum, 3 different kind of hit have been recorded: for larger drums like Taikos, Bass drums or bigger frame drums, these correspond to Centre, Middle and Border respectively, whereas other articulations are featured for smaller drums.
The instrument features 3 independent layers, in order to combine different percussive sounds, with a total of 9 different sounds that can be played simultaneously from the keyboard.
Moreover, the Acoustic Percussions Sequencer features a multistep sequencer based on multiple interchangeable patterns in real time, and further controls like Expression , Tightness and Scale for a further, more expressive dynamic control.
2. DESIGNED DRUMS KIT
The Designed Drums Kit is a sound design oriented instrument that features over 2200 one-shot samples. It has been designed to creatively layer and manipulate pre-designed drum and percussive samples and playing them in a finger-drumming MPC fashion. In fact, the Designed Drums Kit is based on 16 independent pads (on the left of the GUI) to which a sound can be loaded.
The basic concept of the Designed Drums Kit can be summarised as: load any sound to any pad, map any pad to any key on your MIDI controller. Do you want to have an instrument with 16 different kick sounds? You can. Do you want to load the very same snare sample on each of the 16 pads and manipulate it independently per pad? You can. You want to create your own kit by exploring the vast selection of one-shots? You can.
