Ritual Gong Drum by Riot Audio - Ceremonial Bronze Gong Drum

This is a pristinely recorded, deeply sampled library of a ceremonial bronze gong drum from South East Asia.

This particular drum was in the ground for most of its lifetime as a ceremonial drum, only to be disenterred for ancestral and other rituals in the local village. It was brought back to the UK by renowned South East Asia expert and anthropologist Andrew Turton, during his studies there in the 1970s. It has since been in his private collection of artefacts and musical instruments from the region.

The drum was recorded dry.

The library is highly playable, with left hand and right hand separately mapped for easy playing and programming of rolls and crescendi. The custom UI interface allows for control of Sustain, Tape Saturation and subtle Low End control as well as Reverb amount and size.

Ritual Gong Drum come with a simple and clean Kontakt interface. We’ve selected a few key parameters to help you tailor the sound of the Ritual Gong Drum for your compositions:

MASTER
Volume & Pan: Master Volume and Pan controls
ENVELOPE
