They are similar in appearance and origin to a very large tambourine, but rather than simply being an accompaniment or backing instrument, the Rik family of drums can often take a lead or solo role. The jingles, rattles or rings are often played as a discreet component of the drum, along with a broad range of unique head and rim finger and hand articulations. This broad family of specialized drums is treated as a very serious and deeply nuanced instrument class in both traditional and modern Middle Eastern, Central Asian and Eastern European music.<\/p>\n<p>For their <strong>Riq Drum<\/strong> multi-sample library, they captured a pair of full-sized drums, one larger 15-inch \u201cdaf\u201d drum from Greece with metal rings and bearings (actually called a daf) and one smaller 13\u201d riq drum from Egypt with wide tin \u201ccymbals\u201d. They also captured a toy frame drum that they\u2019ve modified into a miniature riq, by adding egg-shakers. They\u2019ve also included a full collection of atmospheric and ambient sustaining instruments, each created entirely through heavily manipulating the source recordings for this library and equipped with multi-layer morphing, performance shaping and FX chaining options.<\/p>\n<h2>CONTENTS<\/h2>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<ul>\n<li>Megamixer kit building interface, with customizable modules<\/li>\n<li>Dual layer tuned percussion building interface to create uniquely playable multi-layered melodic and effect instruments.<\/li>\n<li>Standard Ensemble presets that put the whole library at your findertips<\/li>\n<li>Uberpeggiator meta-arpeggiation and roll generator system<\/li>\n<li>Rack DSP Effects, including a huge range of custom room and environmental reverb impulses.<\/li>\n<li>Riq bone mallet strikes (center, edge) 6-8 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer<\/li>\n<li>Riq felt mallet strikes (center) 8 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer<\/li>\n<li>Riq wooden dowel &#8220;hotrods&#8221; (center, edge) 6-8 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Riq brushes (center, edge, mute) 6-8 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Riq finger strikes (center, edge, mute) 5-8 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Riq hand strikes (center, mute) 5-6 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Riq shake singles \u2013 5 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Riq shake rolls (slow, medium &amp; fast rolls, grooves) 19 variations w\/ release trigger samples and swell control.<\/li>\n<li>Riq &#8220;tabla-style&#8221; bass bends \u2013 4 speed, intensity and positional variations, 10X RR each<\/li>\n<li>Daf bone mallet strikes (center, edge, rim) 5-7 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer<\/li>\n<li>Daf felt mallet strikes (center, edge) 8 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer<\/li>\n<li>Daf brushes (center, edge, rim, mute) 6-7 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Daf finger strikes (center, edge, mute) 6-7 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Daf hand strikes \u2013 8 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Daf shake singles \u2013 5 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer<\/li>\n<li>Daf shake rolls (slow, medium &amp; fast rolls, grooves) 9 variations w\/ release samples and swell control.<\/li>\n<li>Daf &#8220;tabla-style&#8221; bass bends \u2013 6 speed, intensity and positional variations, 10X RR each<\/li>\n<li>Baby Riq finger strikes (center, edge) 5 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer<\/li>\n<li>Baby Riq finger strikes w\/ rattle (center, edge) 5 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer<\/li>\n<li>Baby Riq sand shake singles (5 speeds\/intensities) 3 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer<\/li>\n<li>Baby Riq sand shake roll loops \u2013 3 speeds w\/ release samples and swell control.<\/li>\n<li>91 Sustaining ambient textures, organic synth tones and atmospheres created by manipulating the original Riq and Daf recordings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/2865\/products\/Layer_4_58786d49-8cd8-47b9-9ab1-edc646db44ae_1024x1024.jpg?v=1583437654\" alt=\"Riq Drum Pluginsmasters\" width=\"367\" height=\"404\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 367px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 367\/404;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/2865\/products\/Layer_3_03d4085f-050e-4f80-862f-d2b5827ad799_1024x1024.jpg?v=1583437655\" alt=\"Riq Drum Pluginsmasters\" width=\"385\" height=\"423\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 385px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 385\/423;\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":37934,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[3538],"product_cat":[148,967,1178,21],"product_tag":[154,172,437,2231,814],"class_list":{"0":"post-37935","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","14":"product_tag-kontakt-library","15":"product_tag-virtual-instrument","17":"first","18":"instock","19":"sale","20":"downloadable","21":"virtual","22":"taxable","23":"purchasable","24":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.6 -
