starting at C1 (two octaves below middle C) and going up chromatically. This

was used for instruments that feature collections of sounds, for example,

Cartoon Comedy SFX (in the Sound Eects folder) includes dozens of

unique one-shot cartoon sound eects.

Instruments with a [Chrom] designation are mapped chromatically on the

keyboard, and are pitch-centered to their actual sounding pitch. In each

case, we took liberties with the mapping. If an instrument couldn’t physically

play every pitch, we used pitch-stretching to make sure every chromatic key

was covered. We also chose to stretch the lowest sample across the entire

bottom of the keyboard, and the highest sample to the very top of the

keyboard. In some cases, this results in less-than-desirable results at the

extremes of the keyboard, however, we chose to allow this in order to give

maximum ﬂexibility in playing each instrument, without requiring you to

hunt around the keyboard for the true playable range of each instrument,

and allowing you to judge aurally whether an extremely range for the

instrument is musically useful.

Instruments with a [Zone] designation are set up in octave zones. Fans of

our other products World Impact: Global Percussion and Elite Orchestral

Percussion will recognize this mapping system. This system is used for

instruments that may have several articulations available, for example, the

Chinese Battle Drum (inside Hong Kong Cinema). This drum was sampled

two dierent ways: hits and clicks. Hits are available in the C1-B1 octave, and

clicks are available in the next octave (C2-B2). Within each octave, the

samples are not pitch-stretched, which enables you to play any keys in that

octave to alternate strikes, the way a drummer playing with one stick in each

hand would.

Instruments with [MW] in the title indicate that the mod wheel should be

used in order to control some important aspect (often crossfading) within

the instrument.

Instruments with no designation in brackets, such as Ambient Chordal Pads,

play chromatically across the keyboard in a traditional fashion.
