Sonuscore Introduces The Sculpture Metallic Sound Design Instrument
Sonuscore has introduced The Sculpture, a sample-based sound design instrument for Mac and Windows, created from a unique metal sculpture by German sculptor Klaus Gündchen.
The instrument contains recordings of the sculpture being struck, bowed, scraped and played using different techniques, including mallets, rolls and rubber balls. Four microphone perspectives capture the instrument from close, far, contact and internal positions.
The Sculpture includes two instruments: a Single instrument focused on direct playback of the recorded material, and an Engine instrument with five voices consisting of two playable voices, two arpeggiators and one granular voice, along with slot and master effects. It runs in the free Kontakt Player.
Features:
- One-of-a-Kind Sound Source – Every sound sampled from a single handmade metal sculpture.
- Four Microphone Perspectives – Close, far, contact, and an internal Blumlein pair for resonance from inside the metal.
- Full Articulation Set – Mallets, rolls, bowed tones, rubberball techniques, and extended FX textures across plates and rods.
- Two Instruments in One – A direct, playable Single instrument plus a five-layer Engine instrument with arpeggiators, granular voice, and effects.
- Free Kontakt Player Ready – 5–6 GB of sample content, no full Kontakt license required.
The Sculpture is available from Sonuscore with an intro price of US $79 (normally $99).
