做工精美的钢锅
这些制作精美的钢鼓由著名的会议打击乐手 Frank Ricotti 演奏，将为您的电影、电视和游戏配乐增添色彩和活力。 Steel Drums 还包括一系列精彩的预设，专为当代 RnB、流行音乐和电子音乐而设计，并托管在我们流行的 eDNA 引擎中，以实现即时演奏和控制。 从令人难以忘怀的美丽柔软层到灼热的金属叮咬，我们打击乐系列中这一激动人心的新成员已在世界上最伟大的配乐舞台——AIR Studios 的大厅上进行了采样——与我们所有的管弦乐库完美融合。
钢铁鼓
Spitfire 的创始人 Christian Henson 一直对钢鼓着迷，以其情感柔和的音色、低音和声以及丰富的音色和动态范围而闻名。 在与 Frank Ricotti 合作了许多打击乐项目（包括开创性的 Hans Zimmer Percussion）之后，我们回到了 AIR Studios 的大厅，进一步扩大了我们的打击乐范围。 我们的目标是记录这些钢鼓的多种用途，使用不同的麦克风位置来捕捉不同的视角。 我们的树形麦克风位置适合那些希望将钢鼓融入管弦乐电影、游戏和电视配乐中的人，而近距离和更集中的位置更适合 RnB 和电子曲目。 我们捕捉到了多才多艺、动人的音色，从柔和的电平到更响亮、更激烈的动态层，以获得更传统的加勒比声音。
Steel Drums 有两种界面 – 标准多麦克风，专为熟悉我们管弦乐系列的用户而设计，具有前端即时调整的发音和麦克风。 我们还将钢桶加载到我们先进的 eDNA 中
引擎，具有由我们屡获殊荣的作曲家、制作人和声音设计师团队设计的数十个可立即播放的预设。 每个音符均由 AIR Studios 的专家常驻工程师 Jake Jackson 使用一系列无价的老式麦克风通过 Neve“Montserrat”前置放大器和一台保养精美的 Studer 2” 磁带机录制，然后通过最好的 Prism AD 转换器以 96k 的速度转换为数字。
竹棍最初是特立尼达的传统，用于击打厨具、垃圾桶和鼓，这在 20 世纪 30 年代发展成为全钢乐队的一项运动，并在 1940 年代成为一种流行的狂欢节乐器。 在电影配乐方面，您可以在 Jaco Pastorius、Cliff Martinez 和 Hans Zimmer 的开创性作品以及全球流行舞曲和 RnB 曲目中找到它们的身影。 打击乐家 Frank Ricotti 是一位活生生的传奇人物。 他不仅是世界上最受顶尖唱片艺术家欢迎的打击乐手之一，还演奏过无数大片电影配乐，如《盗梦空间》、《007：天幕杀机》、《暮光之城》、《马达加斯加》、《星际穿越》、《纳尼亚传奇》、《了不起的狐狸爸爸》和《谍影重重》系列。
Beautifully crafted steel pans
These beautifully crafted steel drums, performed by renowned session percussionist Frank Ricotti, will add colour and energy to your film, TV, & games scores. Steel Drums also includes a fantastic selection of presets, designed for use on contemporary RnB, pop and electronic music and hosted in our popular eDNA engine for instant playability and control. From hauntingly beautiful soft layers to searing metallic bites, this exciting addition to our percussion range has been sampled on the greatest scoring stage in the world — The Hall at AIR Studios — blending perfectly with all of our orchestral libraries.
Steel Drums
Spitfire’s founder Christian Henson has always had a fascination with steel drums, known for their emotional mellow tones, sub-bass harmonics and rich timbral and dynamic range. Having collaborated with Frank Ricotti on many percussion projects, including the seminal Hans Zimmer Percussion, we went back to The Hall at AIR Studios to expand our percussion range even further. Our aim was to record these steel drums for a multitude of uses, using various microphone positions to capture different perspectives. Our Tree mic position works for those looking to work steel drums into their orchestral film, games and TV scores, while Close and more focused positions are more suited to RnB & electronic tracks. We have captured a versatile and touching tone at softer levels, up to louder, brasher dynamic layers for a more traditional Caribbean sound.
Steel Drums is presented in two interfaces — the standard multi-mic, designed for those familiar with our orchestral range, with front-end instant tweaking of articulations and microphones. We have also loaded the steel drums into our sophisticated eDNA
engine, with dozens of instantly playable presets designed by our award winning team of composers, producers and sound designers. Every note was recorded by AIR Studios’ expert resident engineer Jake Jackson using an array of priceless vintage microphones via Neve “Montserrat” pre-amps and a beautifully serviced Studer 2” tape machine, then into digital at 96k via the best Prism AD converters.
Originally of Trinidadian tradition, bamboo sticks were used to hit kitchenware, trash cans and drums, which grew into a movement in the 1930s od all-steel bands and becoming a a popular carnival instrument by the 1940s. In film scoring, they can be found on seminal works by Jaco Pastorius, Cliff Martinez and Hans Zimmer, and on popular dance and RnB tracks across the globe. Percussionist Frank Ricotti is a living legend. Beyond being one of the most in demand percussionists in the world for top recording artists, he has played on countless blockbuster film scores such as Inception, Skyfall, Twilight Saga, Madagascar, Interstellar, Narnia, Fantastic Mr Fox and the Bourne series.
