Bank toy piano. We don’t know much about this particular instrument’s history - a friend of Soniccouture, Tom Heywood ( Discography ), who runs Normal Bias studios in Berlin, found it in one of the city’s many flea markets.
It was sold to him by a vendor who specialises in DDR (Deutsche Demokratische Republik) era collectibles. It is a child’s toy piano, made of plastic. It has a wonderfully clanky, bell like tone with very loud, distinctive key-off sounds as the keys disengage. The instrument was recorded with a spaced stereo pair of vintage Neumann mics, in Normal Bias Studios, Berlin in August 2011.

SOUNDIRON. Bank pan drum. "This is definitely the most sophisticated sample set I own, of any instrument.
" "..Soniccouture's library comes in two flavors, the Hang Mk1 (the 8-dimple variety), and the newer Hang Mk2, with 7 dimples. I'm loath to go in to great detail about what's provided, as we'll be here all day, and that's not really the purpose of this website. Suffice to say that if it's possible to make a particular sound with a hang drum, Soniccouture sampled it, at multiple velocity layers, and three samples of each. Literally every single possible sound has a round-robin layer, so you don't get the typical "I'm whackin' this key over and over again" vibe.
At all. This is definitely the most sophisticated sample set I own, of any instrument. Chris Randall. Bank kim. The Kim is a type of dulcimer or zither from Thailand, and is related to the Chinese yangqin.
Sometimes spelled khim, the instrument consists of a flat soundbox with 42 wire strings stretched across in 14 sets of 3. The courses are struck with two thin bamboo mallets with soft leather tips. The Kim is not a very loud instrument, and is typically played with a lot of tremolo. As there is no damping mechanism, the strings ring to their natural decay, and this gives an eerie resonance to the background of a Kim performance. The Kim is used in both solo and ensemble situations. The Kim was sampled at 24 bit /44.1 and contains 137 seperate unlooped samples. KSP Tremolo Control Processor The KIM Kontakt 2 instrument comes with a dedicated KSP script that enables the signature tremolo sound of the Kim when key C1 is held down. Compatible with Kontakt 2, 3, 4 - Full version of Kontakt required.

Sometimes called a Thumb Piano, Sanza, or Kalimba, they are generally home-made and consist of several metal tines attached to a gourd or piece of wood, which are then plucked with the thumbs. They are mostly small, with a handful of notes. Array Instruments, a U.S. company started by Bill Wesley and Patrick Hadley, have taken the concept of this ancient African idiophone to a whole new level, not only in terms of instrument design but also in purity of sound, and range of pitch.
The Array Mbira is no toy, it’s a highly advanced musical instrument built to exacting specifications. A different note system All Array instruments are designed with a unique note arrangement, invented by Bill Wesley to facilitate playing harmonically. This also means that all octaves of a single note are beside one another, allowing for octave “strumming” or doubling, which would be much more difficult on a chromatic note layout. Bank tube bambou.
