SAWmonium For the FULL Version of Kontakt 4.2.4.5316+ (ONLY WORKS IN DEMO MODE IN KONTAKT PLAYER) A basic woodsaw, a small mitre back saw, a basic hacksaw.... who knew what musical awesomeness these everyday tools held? We had a clue, but until we started using a cello bow on them and banging them with the likes of mallets, rattans, and sticks... these were just for sawing wood, metal, or girls in wooden boxes on stage in half. Welcome to our second release... welcome to the horror.. welcome to, THE SAWmonium! SAWmonium brings you 10 very unique Kontakt patches which are, as usual, very cinematic in sound and geared towards the horrific, quirky, or even mysterious! We utilized a cello bow on the wood saw and hacksaw to create some very strange and unique FX sounds... some of which harken back to the odd FX from the Jerry Goldsmith scores of the 60s and 70s. The bow also helped us to create some very usable tonal staccs, really creepy growls, and one patch which is a definite nod to Zimmers' Joker motif from The Dark Knight. The bowed sustains patch is tuned and loops... it has the sound of a gritty glass harmonica and is very playable. We also banged on each saw using a concert mallet, a rattan, and traditional drum sticks. The HITS patch contains all of these and each hit has 4 X RR to help fight repetition. These, when used with the built in Arpeggiator, are highly useable. Speaking of the Arpeggiator, the GUI from Antique Metal Percussion has returned (with a facelift) giving you full control over the EQ, Attack / Decay, and the Pitch in addition to the 13 custom impulse reponses to put these strange sounds in a varying degree of different rooms. Geared towards the quirky, horror, and sci fi genres... SAWmonium is an avante garde approach to music and will give your next piece of music or film / game score a very unique touch.
