Spitfire Audio Ricotti Mallets (Digital produkt)

Spitfire Audio Ricotti Mallets presents a beautifully crafted collection of tuned percussion instruments performed by renowned percussionist Frank Ricotti. This library features the Marimba, Glockenspiel, Xylophone, and Crotales, all expertly sampled on Spitfire Studios' dry stage to offer a definitive, expressive, and versatile mallet percussion experience.

Captured with meticulous attention to detail, Ricotti Mallets offers multiple playing techniques and articulations to bring each instrument to life. From precise main articulations to complex rolls, tremolos, glissandos, and special effects such as bowed and hot rod hits, this collection provides a wide range of sonic colors suitable for orchestral, film, and contemporary music production.

The instruments come with multiple samples of different mallet types — including hard, soft, rubber, and plastic — allowing for nuanced tonal shaping. Additionally, the library features five distinct microphone positions (Cardioid, Valve, Condenser, Ribbon, and Room), giving users extensive control over the spatial and tonal character of the sounds.

The user-friendly interface includes an overview panel for quick articulation selection, a controls panel for detailed parameter adjustments, and an Ostinatum function for creating rhythmic patterns and arpeggios that add movement and complexity to compositions.
