The instrument was constructed by Gregg Stephens with the help some rather involved mathematics, plenty of elbow grease and quite a few bloody fingers. The end result is a massive 20-foot-long tuned percussion instrument with a pitch range spanning a full 4 octaves. Overall, it sounds like a strange organic synthesizer coupled with tuned tom toms. With deeply nuanced dynamic velocity layering and extensive round-robin variation, this instrument is truly an experimental percussionist&#8217;s dream come true.<\/p>\n<h2>CONTENTS<\/h2>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<p>Their Cylindrum library contains three separate variations of the instrument: dry small, dry fat and wet. The small set is made from a series of 1\u00bd-inch diameter PVC water pipes played by tapping fingers over one end, with a microphone positioned at the far end. The fat version is made from a series of 4-inch ABS corrugated plastic tubes with an open-ended rubber port hole, played with a ping pong paddle. Both sets were recorded in a dry studio room, giving them a full, resonant and fat tonality perfect for arpeggiated melodies and driving bass lines. The wet version is built from 4-inch ABS corrugated plastic tubes with felt mallets on a 3\/8\u2033 heavy rubber cap, recorded in an ultra-wide stereo array in a lush glass and tile hall. This slightly more distant sound and closed port delivers a much more brutal transient impact perfect for dramatic scoring and layering with other percussion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Multisampled articulations:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>13 dry, individual 4&#8243; open-tube impact articulations, mapped in a chromatic ensemble with 10x round-robin and up to 7 velocity layers.<\/li>\n<li>1 dry 1\u00bd&#8221; open-tube impact articulation, mapped in a chromatic ensemble with 30 individual notes, 2 round-robin and 20+ velocity layers.<\/li>\n<li>12 dry, individual 4&#8243; tube impact mute articulations, mapped in a chromatic ensemble with 10x round-robin and up to 3 velocity layers.<\/li>\n<li>18 wet, individual 4&#8243; closed-tube impact articulations, mapped in a chromatic ensemble with 10x round-robin and up to 7 velocity layers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Powerful GUI Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>13 sound-designed atmospheric ambiences crafted from original Cylindrum content.<\/li>\n<li>LFO system with selectable shape, target, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in controls.<\/li>\n<li>12 filter types assignable to velocity, modwheel, expression, after-touch, key position and sequencer.<\/li>\n<li>Advanced arpeggiator system.<\/li>\n<li>Play-assist features with key and scale locking.<\/li>\n<li>Modular FX rack window, with 18 DSP effect modules to choose from, including 99 custom environmental and 38 FX reverb presets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 33.3333%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/2865\/products\/Cylindrum_01_-_Main_1024x1024.jpg?v=1583427522\" alt=\"Cylindrum Pluginsmasters\" width=\"487\" height=\"536\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 487px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 487\/536;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 33.3333%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/2865\/products\/Cylindrum_02_-_Advanced_Controls_1024x1024.jpg?v=1583427522\" alt=\"Cylindrum Pluginsmasters\" width=\"493\" height=\"542\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 493px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 493\/542;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 33.3333%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/2865\/products\/Cylindrum_02_-_FX_Rack_1024x1024.jpg?v=1583427522\" alt=\"Cylindrum Pluginsmasters\" width=\"521\" height=\"573\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 521px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 521\/573;\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RBMcL8x9pyM<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":37775,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[3538],"product_cat":[148,967,1178,21],"product_tag":[154,172,2231,814],"class_list":{"0":"post-37776","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-soundiron","7":"product_cat-beat-production","8":"product_cat-drummer","9":"product_cat-expansion-pack","10":"product_cat-virtual-instruments","11":"product_tag-beatmaking","12":"product_tag-drums","13":"product_tag-kontakt-library","14":"product_tag-virtual-instrument","16":"first","17":"instock","18":"sale","19":"downloadable","20":"virtual","21":"taxable","22":"purchasable","23":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.6 -
