01Overview

Ting turns household objects into a playable percussion kit. Each of its 28 sounds was multi-sampled and processed so it can be played expressively rather than used only as a one-shot effect. Klevgrand presents the instrument as a creative tool for producers who want percussion with an unusual character. Twelve sound slots let you build a kit from the library, and built-in EQ, room, reverb and compression processing lets you shape the result inside the plugin.

Sound Sources and Character

The sounds in Ting come from common objects found around the house, not from a standard drum kit. Klevgrand describes the library as roughly 1,500 individual samples, arranged so each sound can be played musically.

Because the sources are everyday items, the percussion tends to sit outside the usual drum-machine palette. That makes Ting a fit for producers looking for textured, unconventional hits alongside or in place of traditional percussion.

Workflow, Processing and Controls

Ting gives you 12 sound slots, so you can assemble a kit from its 28 sounds. Each sound has its own parameters for pan, pitch, dynamics, room send and reverb send, which makes it easier to place every hit in a mix.

The processing chain is built in. An EQ handles tone shaping, two parallel spaces combine a convolution room with algorithmic reverb, and a single-control master compressor finishes the sound. Everything you need to shape a percussion bus is inside one plugin.
