Ferpect Instruments

The third release of the “Groove Butter” series, The Closed Hats features 100 different closed Hi-hat presets made from 2.450 carefully recorded and processed one shot samples. The Hats are playable over four octaves and all presets are velocity sensitive and tuned.

We have recorded a lot of different drum machines in the past and we have now selected some of the rare ones and run them through our saturation, compressing, cleaning process and built a nice GUI for you to have lots of fun with, by turning 44 knobs to get a satisfying beat making experience for musicans and listeners. There are some totally clean and classic sounding closed Hihats and some which we have barely overworked to get some more modern or aggressive results, to fill the toolbox for different music genres.

Add some extra drama by using the pitchbend in combination with some of the useful effects, in a handy and intuitive GUI design. Use the reverb, delay and flanger section to add some width and epicness. You can go real crazy if you want to. In the mid section of the instrument you will find some more tone focussed effects like a compressor, a saturation unit, a powerful overdrive / distortion section and finally the low and hi-pass filters.

On the left side of the instrument you got a few knobs to build up the total shape and mood of the hi-hat sound by using tune, amplitude and pitch envelopes, a section to manage the speed of the sample and also a very useful transient shaper to add some extra attack and punch to the drums.

The Melodica Cassetto 26 is another easy to use and super rich sounding reed instrument made by the German company Hohner*.

The sound is generated by blowing air thru a mouthpiece into fine brass reeds like those used in Harmonicas. This one got an extra chamber at the bottom for more resonances.

This underrated instruments were used by musicians like UB40, Depeche Mode, The Gorillas, The Hooters, Supertramp and… you too name a few!

We are very happy to get our hands on one of these super rare instruments in a very good condition. The Cassotto Melodicas are very hard to find in a good condition.

We have recorded this old, plastic and fantastic pretty with four different types of microphones thru well selected preamps after some time consuming experiments.

Overview
Each microphone can be tuned in separately in the master area at the head of the instrument. So you can take advantage of the different characters of the four microphone types and mix your own original pretty red sound until it fits your taste perfectly.

The noise from blowing air into the Melodica was separated from the musical material and made usable thru an extra mixing knob. The same processing we did with the clicks which were produced by pressing the keys on the Melodica. So you can now add/reduce the noise from blowing by turning the noise knob and add/reduce the clicks from the keys by turning the click knob.

This one is powerful. This one is unstable and resonating, wobbly and warm, this one is smooth also harsh. All at the same time.

We decided to bring you chaos paired with pure love. We have recorded an old and out of tune harmonica with different microphones and preamps and get some interesting resonances and musical errors instantly. We then processed this recordings heavily with different hardware saturation and also with lots of awesome software tools to make them sound even more interesting and get the things more under control.

We build three different version for you to play with. The Long and the short versions are the most realistic sounding ones. The Long version is looped carefully so you can play it to eternity without the need to hitting the key again. The short version is just a sharp played recording. For the long and the short version you can mix four different microphones to get a natural sounding result at the end.

Next we build a version where you can mix four so called “Tracks”.

These tracks are made from different recording sessions and the microphones are layered together already. So you got a total different experience and a more mystical or industrial like sound as result. In combination with all the effects you can go real wild with that one.

Finally we made a simple version also where we layered together some of the recordings and samples we got while recording and building these instrument. Just choose one and tune it to your taste with all the given knobs.

All instruments are programmed with musical velocity, aftertouch and pitchbend modulation possibilities and a super useful LFO effect tuneable by using the modwheel.

Here comes our “DIGGI-DUB”. A synthesizer build to resurrect some classy, warm and dusty memories and finally make them useable.

We want to make a really digital and old skool sounding lo-fi synthesizer this time. Like the old casio toy pianos and stuff like that.

Diggi-Dub uses a lot of different saturation, distortion, modulation and lo-fi effects in a very interesting chain and also very interesting results.

The samples we have used are mostly phat pad and key sounds but also some chords, stabs and drum sounds. Diggi-Dub is built from 1.197 stereo wave samples in 24 Bit and 44.1 kHz quality (1,5 GB). You got 19 different instruments to start with.

The concept on that beautiful looking instrument is to make drastic changes to the sound for example by turning the speed to a totally different level or experiment with the formants or let the lows and highs wobble against each other

• 19 Kontakt Instruments
• 1,197 Samples (44.1kHz / 24Bit)

We found a beautiful old African Balafon in a friend’s old studio so we could not resist turning it into a carefully sampled Kontakt instrument.

We have recorded this beauty with different microphones and preamps and also in different locations to get some interesting resonances and on some also a little room from the beginning. We then processed these recordings with different hardware saturation and also with some state of the art software tools to make them sound woody, natural and warm.

The sounds are carefully tuned and really clean.

From there we build a custom GUI for you to manipulate the original until you get the Balafon / Woody sound you are looking for.

You have 48 variations to start with. 24 x brush and 24 x sticks.

Each instrument has 49 notes. You got some presets which sound more like the real instruments and some which sound like a piano or flutes, some more like soft pads or mystic drums. Velocity is also set to a very musical level for authentic playing.

We have sampled a few Rubberbands like those used in the office or in the kitchen and also some bigger ones.

We got access to some old print machines and a junkyard were we have also recorded some Rubberbands used in different machinery.

We have processed this recordings with different Hardware Saturation and also with the newest software tools to make them sound really phat and outstanding. The sound is really organic, phat and warm.

From there we build a custom GUI for you to manipulate the original until you get the Rubberband Bass you are looking for.

You got 50 variations to choose from. All were build from 18 different Rubberbands

Ferpect obtained a great sounding set of Kalimbas (Mbiras or Thumbpianos) so they could not resist making a carefully sampled Kontakt instrument from that collection.

Ferpect recorded the samples with different microphones and preamps and also in different locations to get some interesting resonances. They then processed the recordings with different hardware saturation devices and also with some state of the art software tools to make them sound warm, lovely and sweet….The sound is natural, phat and clean.

From there they built a custom GUI for you to manipulate the original sounds until you get just the right Kalimba sound you are looking for.

You got 50 variations to start with. Each instrument has up to 73 notes. All were build from 4 different Kalimbas, Mbiras, Thumbpianos.

The instruments are carefully tuned and velocity is also set to a very musical level for authenthic playing. You got some presets which sound more like the real instruments and some which sound like a piano or e-piano, some more like soft pads or steeldrums.
