Piano As Percussion

Heavyocity has introduced UNCHARTED 88, which they describe as a new breed of deeply sampled and mysteriously edgy organic percussion that will get inside your head. Here's what they have to say about it...

Continue the DAMAGE journey and uncover why the piano is truly a percussive instrument. With over 90 thought-provoking presets, UNCHARTED 88 unlocks a new realm of expressive percussion for modern composers.

From deeply sampled mallet, hammer and brush strikes, to scraped strings, to the brutal Damage Piano Hits and transitions, this new chapter in modern percussion was captured exclusively from the guts of a piano.

The Heavyocity team broke down a piano to its rawest, most intimate-sounding sources -- every inch of the instrument, including the strings, the iron plate, the wood frame and more was used to create new and unique percussive elements.

With over 235 playable percussion sources, the Ensemble Designer offers an array of uniquely inspiring elements that are fully customizable, highly playable and painstakingly detailed.

Let your creativity flow with a massive collection of curated loops. Instant cue starters and tension building grooves are made possible by these dynamic percussive beds -- ranging from eerie and thriller-esque to mysterious and experimental.
