SOUNDIRON’s Hopkin Instrumentarium: Icicles & Pop Ice is a pair of unique string instruments delivering bright, crystalline tones through short, highly tensioned strings and a rigid stainless-steel sheet soundboard.
Icicles features 26 short string segments vibrating in unison with the resonant stainless-steel sheet, producing a pure, shimmering sound.
Pop Ice introduces a thin Styrofoam sheet in direct contact with the strings, creating a sharp, percussive pop followed by sustained resonance.
Three main articulations: plucked-string sounds, percussive strikes, and glisses.
Two microphone perspectives, up to 8x round robin, and 6 velocity layers per note.
Includes 20 custom FX presets and atmospheric sound design content.
Designed for the full retail version of Kontakt (version 6.2.2+), this library offers complete control over tone shaping, making it ideal for creating ethereal plucks, percussive backdrops, and atmospheric soundscapes.
