World Percussion

After four years, we are proud to present Evolution Series World Percussion, our next generation virtual instrument.

With state-of-the-art equipment, a world-class scoring stage, and a treasure trove of beautiful instruments, this library offers unprecedented quality and endless creativity

As a goliath 220 gigabyte library, it features amazing sounds from Africa, Asia, Europe, Middle East, and South America. It also offers up to 7 user controllable microphone positions, stereo and true 5.0 surround sound, an extensive array of velocities and round robin plus hundreds of unique midi grooves. Aside from both tuned and un-tuned percussion, the library helps to fuel your creativity through the World Inspire Sets.

By creating multiple versions of each instrument, we provide you flexible options to decrease the sample and CPU system load. You can also choose patches with reduced round robin and pre-mixed microphone options.

We have invested thousands of hours to ensure that this library will add a new dimension of authenticity to your next production.

We know you will love it as much as we enjoyed making it - an extraordinary tool for extraordinary composers.
