SOUNDIRON UFO Tone - Open Format｜Mysterious Otherworldly Handpan Sound Source

A multi-sampled percussion sound source that captures the ethereal sound of the mysterious handpan (Hang Drum)

SOUNDIRON UFO Tone is a multi-sampled metal tuned percussion sound library from Soundiron, featuring dual microphone positions (close/far) recording technology and 24-bit/48kHz high-resolution audio samples. This handpan sound source fully captures a unique steel tongue drum with eight tongues, whose smooth fundamental frequencies are enveloped by complex harmonics, rich swirling overtones, and long, gentle sustain, adding a mysterious and ethereal touch to your film scores or meditation music.

Compared to percussion sounds generated by traditional synthesizers, UFO Tone offers unparalleled acoustic detail and spatial depth through real recordings made in St. Paul's Cathedral in San Francisco. Unlike most percussion sound libraries on the market that use single microphone sampling, its unique "close/far" dual microphone mixing capability allows users to freely adjust the clarity of the dry sound and the spaciousness of the wet sound. Whether you need intimate details or grand soundscapes, this Kontakt instrument excels.
