{"product_id":"riq-drum","title":"Riq Drum","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAbout\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe traditional family of hand percussion instruments is generally defined as an open shell frame drum with large cymbals or jingles. They are similar in appearance and origin to a very large tambourine, but rather than simply being an accompaniment or backing instrument, the Rik family of drums can often take a lead or solo role. The jingles, rattles or rings are often played as a discreet component of the drum, along with a broad range of unique head and rim finger and hand articulations. This broad family of specialized drums is treated as a very serious and deeply nuanced instrument class in both traditional and modern Middle Eastern, Central Asian and Eastern European music.\n\nFor our Riq Drum multi-sample library, we captured a pair of full-sized drums, one larger 15-inch “daf” drum from Greece with metal rings and bearings (actually called a daf) and one smaller 13” riq drum from Egypt with wide tin “cymbals”. We also captured a toy frame drum that we’ve modified into a miniature riq, by adding egg-shakers. We’ve also included a full collection of atmospheric and ambient sustaining instruments, each created entirely through heavily manipulating the source recordings for this library and equipped with multi-layer morphing, performance shaping and FX chaining options.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eContents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMegamixer kit building interface, with customizable modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual layer tuned percussion building interface to create uniquely playable multi-layered melodic and effect instruments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard Ensemble presets that put the whole library at your findertips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUberpeggiator meta-arpeggiation and roll generator system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRack DSP Effects, including a huge range of custom room and environmental reverb impulses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq bone mallet strikes (center, edge) 6-8 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq felt mallet strikes (center) 8 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq wooden dowel \"hotrods\" (center, edge) 6-8 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq brushes (center, edge, mute) 6-8 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq finger strikes (center, edge, mute) 5-8 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq hand strikes (center, mute) 5-6 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq shake singles – 5 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq shake rolls (slow, medium \u0026amp; fast rolls, grooves) 19 variations w\/ release trigger samples and swell control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiq \"tabla-style\" bass bends – 4 speed, intensity and positional variations, 10X RR each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaf bone mallet strikes (center, edge, rim) 5-7 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaf felt mallet strikes (center, edge) 8 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaf brushes (center, edge, rim, mute) 6-7 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaf finger strikes (center, edge, mute) 6-7 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaf hand strikes – 8 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaf shake singles – 5 velocity layers, 10X RR per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaf shake rolls (slow, medium \u0026amp; fast rolls, grooves) 9 variations w\/ release samples and swell control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDaf \"tabla-style\" bass bends – 6 speed, intensity and positional variations, 10X RR each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaby Riq finger strikes (center, edge) 5 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaby Riq finger strikes w\/ rattle (center, edge) 5 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaby Riq sand shake singles (5 speeds\/intensities) 3 velocity layers, 10X variations per layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaby Riq sand shake roll loops – 3 speeds w\/ release samples and swell control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e91 Sustaining ambient textures, organic synth tones and atmospheres created by manipulating the original Riq and Daf recordings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e","brand":"Soundiron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48808810381561,"sku":"1337-1089","price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/5766\/1177\/files\/RIQ_DRUM_1024x1024_dff4c73a-dd10-48f1-9154-c98a39cc2cba.jpg?v=1786510798","url":"https:\/\/blackoutaudio.com\/products\/riq-drum","provider":"Blackout Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
