Crash VSTi: Unique Accents for Your Tracks
Every musician and sound engineer knows how important details are in creating a perfect sound canvas. It is often the correctly chosen crash cymbal or atmospheric ride sound that can become that “zest” that will add energy, dynamics and a unique character to the track. Introducing Crash VSTi from Softrave – a specialized virtual instrument dedicated exclusively to high-quality cymbal sounds, collected with incredible care and love for sound.
This plugin is not just another sample library. It is the result of many years of work aimed at creating the most complete and diverse collection of accent cymbals, available in a convenient VST instrument format. Forget about hours of searching for the perfect crash in general drum libraries. Crash VSTi offers you instant access to a rich palette of these important percussive elements.
Depth and Diversity: 300 Unique Cymbal Sounds
At the heart of Crash VSTi lies an impressive collection of 300 different crash and cymbal sounds. These are not variations of the same sample, but unique recordings made in different studios. Different rooms, microphones, preamps and converters – all this affects the final character of the sound, giving each sample a unique color and texture. From bright, sharp crashes that cut through the mix, to dark, trailing cymbals that create atmosphere and space – this collection has a sound for any musical idea and any genre.
The availability of so many options allows you not just to choose a “good” crash, but to find the one that will fit perfectly into a particular mix, complementing other instruments and emphasizing the desired mood. You can use these sounds as the main accents, layer them to create complex, multifaceted hits, or use them as atmospheric elements or transitions. Each of the 300 sounds is a ready-to-use element that does not require lengthy processing, although, of course, it opens up wide possibilities for further sound design using your favorite effects.
Sound History: 10 Years of Dedication to Collecting
Creating such an extensive and diverse library of sounds required considerable dedication. The sounds for Crash VSTi were collected and recorded for 10 years! This decade of searching, experimenting and recording in different places allowed us to cover a wide range of acoustic conditions and recording equipment. This approach guarantees that you get not just standard sounds from a typical studio, but unique, often unexpected, but always musical and expressive samples.
Various drum kits, drum machines and effects were used to create these sounds. This means that some samples are recordings of “live” acoustic cymbals, while others are processed or synthesized sounds created using drum boxes and effect chains. This combination of recording techniques and sound design has made it possible to obtain an incredible variety of timbres – from raw and natural to heavily processed and experimental. Each sound has its own history, its own character, which makes the Crash VSTi library a living and inspiring tool for creativity.
