The recordings were made with high quality equipment such as the Sanken 100kHz, Shoeps MS pair and specialized contact microphones. Ultra fine preamplifiers were necessary to capture the loud transients and beautiful, subtle reverberations.
Sounds are arranged in six sound sets.
Now it is compatible with MTS-ESP, the new product of cooperation between ODDSound and Aphex Twin.
