Hi Fives: Body and Mouth Percussion Sample Library by Soundiron

The library covers three groups of articulations. Body sounds include arm, chest, belly, thigh and cheek slaps, with up to 12 round-robin variations. Hand sounds cover snaps, flicks, claps, punches, swipes and scrub sustains. Mouth sounds include clicks, pops, swishes, tongue drops, lip tweedles, spit, gasps, exhales and grunts, along with a full mouth-made drumkit.

Recordings were made in two microphone positions with up to 16 velocity layers, which gives each hit more dynamic variation than a single static sample would. All articulations can be played in ensemble, remapped and randomized, so you can layer several sources into one part.

The samples are 24-bit / 48 kHz uncompressed PCM WAV.

The instrument uses a multi-layer interface with LFO, filter, glide and arpeggiator controls. A full FX rack includes convolution reverb with custom rooms, halls, chambers and FX environments.

The 20 ambience patches are created from the same source recordings and are less rhythmic, which makes them useful as pads or texture beds. The 20 custom sound-designed FX and ambient presets give you a starting point for rhythmic fills and transitions.
