Tom Factory 是我们 Epic Ensembles 系列中的第二个，它提供了一套精心策划的高辛烷值鼓合奏组。 非常适合作曲家为动感十足的预告片、大片等配乐。
该库中提供的工具提供了一个优雅的解决方案，可以为您的打击乐写作添加电影优势。

关于该系列
我们召集了 5 名表演者和超过 35 个鼓，包括 Roto Toms、Octobans、Concert Toms、Kick Drums，并花了 3 天的时间捕捉了 80 多个发音，从独奏鼓到一系列强有力的合奏配置。

Tom Factory 被设计为一个一体化的电影汤姆鼓库，具有令人难以置信的多样化声音，在令人惊叹的声学空间中录制，经过专业处理成 6 种不同的混音，并在易于使用的 Kontakt 界面中呈现。

音乐会汤姆斯
音乐会汤姆鼓是汤姆工厂的核心产品。 它们与普通的鼓组通鼓不同，因为它们没有底部（共鸣）皮肤，可提供更准确、更有力的音色。 音乐会通鼓传统上用于音乐会乐队设置，现在越来越多地出现在震撼人心的大片乐谱中。
我们在独奏和合奏配置中捕获了一系列不同尺寸和调音（10-18 英寸）的音乐会通鼓。

奥克托班斯
Octobans 是打击乐器家族的最新成员之一。 他们于 20 世纪 70 年代末首次在流行音乐界崭露头角，最近又在电影配乐中占有一席之地。
每个 Octobans 都有相同的六英寸头部，其音高的差异来自于身体的大小。

罗托汤姆斯
Roto 通鼓具有紧致的鼓皮，无鼓腔，可产生尖锐而共鸣的音色，在最响亮的动态上具有标志性的“弯音”效果。 它们的音色与更浓郁的音乐会通鼓形成鲜明对比，这意味着它们可以与库中的其他鼓非常有效地结合使用。

Tom Factory 包含 7 种不同音高的旋转通鼓，尺寸从 6 英寸到 14 英寸不等。

底鼓
尽管主要是一个通鼓库，但我们还是忍不住还加入了底鼓，为声音调色板添加了坚实而有力的低音。

Tom Factory 中的底鼓以典型的方式使用踏板进行演奏，并在“深度合奏”发音中使用软拍子。

史诗合奏
《Tom Factory》中最值得关注的素材必须是合奏发音。 利用我们作曲家、打击乐手和工程师团队的丰富经验，我们精心策划了 40 个合奏演奏，专为现代电影音乐量身定制。

其中包括由落地通鼓和底鼓组成的雷鸣般的“深沉合奏”、利用多种演奏技术的强悍音乐会通鼓合奏、独特的“宽通鼓合奏”（其中两名演奏者间隔较远）以及由旋转通鼓和底鼓组成的众多合奏配置。 奥克托班斯。

球杆和演奏技巧
为了在这个库中创建各种音色，我们使用了不同的棍子和演奏技巧。 除了标准鼓槌之外，还有尼龙刷和热棒，可提供清脆的触觉音色，而软木槌（通常用于定音鼓和镲片）则可提供更加低沉和共鸣的音色。

我们还使用了扩展技术，例如手掌静音和将纸放在皮肤上，以获得更尖锐和更少共鸣的声音，非常适合快速节奏的演奏。

The second in our series of Epic Ensembles, Tom Factory delivers an expertly curated set of high-octane drum ensembles. Perfect for composers scoring action-packed trailers, blockbusters, and more.
The tools provided in this library offer an elegant solution to adding a cinematic edge to your percussion writing.

ABOUT THE COLLECTION
We assembled 5 performers and over 35 drums including Roto Toms, Octobans, Concert Toms, Kick Drums, and spent 3 days capturing over 80 articulations, from solo drums to a range of hard-hitting ensemble configurations.

Tom Factory is designed to be an all-in-one cinematic tom library, featuring an incredibly diverse range of sounds, recorded in a stunning acoustic space, expertly processed into 6 diverse mixes, and presented in an easy-to-use Kontakt interface.

CONCERT TOMS
The concert toms are the centrepiece of Tom Factory. They differ from regular drum kit toms as they don’t have a bottom (resonant) skin, providing a more accurate and punchy tone. Traditionally used in Concert Band setups, concert toms are increasingly making their way into hard-hitting blockbuster scores.
We captured a selection of concert toms of different sizes and tunings (10-18 inches) in solo and ensemble configurations.

OCTOBANS
One of the most recent additions to the percussion family is Octobans. First coming to prominence in the popular music world during the late 1970s, they have more recently found a place in cinematic scores.
The Octobans each have the same six-inch head, with the variance in their pitches coming from the size of the body.

ROTO TOMS
Roto toms feature a tight head with no shell, which results in a sharp and resonant tone, with a signature ‘pitch bend’ effect on the loudest dynamics. Their tone contrasts beautifully with the more full-bodied concert toms and means they can be used very effectively in combination with the other drums in the library.

7 different pitches of roto toms are included in Tom Factory, ranging from 6-14 inches in size.

KICK DRUMS
Despite being primarily a tom library, we couldn’t resist also including kick drums, for adding a solid and punchy low-end to the sound palette.

The kick drums in Tom Factory are performed in the typical way using pedals, and also with soft beaters in the ‘deep ensemble’ articulation.

EPIC ENSEMBLES
The most noteworthy material in Tom Factory has to be the ensemble articulations. Utilising the wealth of experience amongst our team of composers, percussionists and engineers, we meticulously curated 40 ensemble articulations, tailored for modern cinematic music.

This includes a thunderous ‘deep ensemble’ of floor toms and kick drums, a hard-hitting concert tom ensemble utilising multiple performance techniques, a unique ‘wide tom ensemble’ which features two players spaced far apart, and numerous ensemble configurations of roto toms and octobans.

STICKS AND PERFORMANCE TECHNIQUES
To create a varied range of timbres in this library, we utilised different sticks and playing techniques. Alongside the standard drumsticks are nylon brushes and hot rods, which provide a crisp tactile timbre, whilst soft mallets (typically used on timpani and cymbals) give a more muffled and resonant tone.

We also used extended techniques such as palm muting and placing paper on the skins for sharper and less resonant sounds, perfect for fast rhythmic playing.
