Ample China Traditional Percussion: Chinese Percussion Virtual Instrument

ACTP covers a wide range of Chinese percussion, from large drum ensembles and gongs to rattle drums, temple blocks and ceremonial cymbals. Each instrument can use up to 13 articulations, with velocity layers and sample cycling to avoid repetitive hits.

The 11- and 22-mic configurations let you choose between a fuller ensemble perspective and a closer, more focused solo drum sound. A dual-layer mixer lets you blend mic positions and stack instrument layers within the same slot.

Legato transitions on gongs, bowls, cymbals and bells are handled by a dedicated performance engine.

The Percussion Riffer creates expressive MIDI sequences and lets you edit articulations directly. Switching instruments inside a slot does not require MIDI remapping, which keeps arrangements easier to manage.

Each instrument has its own ADSR modulation, pitch shaping and velocity curve editing, so you can adjust attack, decay and dynamic response to suit a specific part.

ACTP is a good fit for producers writing traditional scores, cinematic cues or experimental rhythm parts that need authentic Chinese percussion.
