Abbey Road Orchestra: Metal Percussion Core

Inject a metallic edge into your orchestral compositions. This library not only delivers traditional metals from the orchestral palette, but includes the resonant clang of anvils, the shimmering brilliance of bowed cymbals, the otherworldly textures of waterphones, and of course a range of cowbells, agogos, guira and more. Meticulously recorded with a variety of beaters and techniques, Metal Percussion captures the unique character and full dynamic range of each instrument. Dive into the gritty world of oil drums, trash cans, and scaffold poles, or explore the delicate shimmer of temple bowls and wind chimes. Whether you’re crafting cinematic soundscapes, industrial sound design, or adding a unique rhythmic layer to your music, this library provides a wealth of metallic textures and articulations to create everything from sharp, percussive hits to lush, atmospheric textures.

With a microphone mix masterfully engineered by GRAMMY® -Award-winner Simon Rhodes in the legendary space of Abbey Road Studio One, and performed by world-renowned percussionist Joby Burgess, Metal Percussion Core elevates your rhythms with a gorgeous room sound and exceptionally detailed sampling.
