Welcome to CinePerc! Cinesamples is proud to present CinePerc, our comprehensive percussion library. CinePerc comes in four parts; Core, Pro, Epic, and Aux. All of these instruments were recorded in excruciating detail at the SONY Scoring Stage in Los Angeles, and mixed by master engineer Dennis Sands. CORE The Core library brings you the bread and butter of the orchestral percussion section - generally instruments that were standard in pre-20th Century scores. This set of instruments will cover a large part of your day-to-day orchestral percussion needs. PRO CinePerc PRO includes many more percussion instruments for your orchestral template. In general these patches give you control over sounds that were more recently standardized in 20th Century music. EPIC CinePerc EPIC is the most beastly of the four CinePerc packages. This library includes enormous-sounding single and ensemble percussion patches to give your cues that punch they need. Trailer music composers will find themselves reaching for these patches first to get that larger-than-life sound. AUX CinePerc AUX is an expansion to the other CinePerc options that will expand your template along with your creativity. This expansion includes ethnic instruments, toys, and other knick-knacks to give your pieces an extra flavor.

DENNIS SANDS Keeping the trend we started with CineBrass and continued with CineWinds, we were able to bring Dennis in to once again lend his legendary talent to this project. Dennis is one of the most sought after mixers in Hollywood. His credit list is a sight to behold (Back to the Future, The Avengers, Captain America, Shawshank Redemption, American Beauty), and includes some of our favorite scores. As usual, it was an honor to work with Dennis; his contribution to CinePerc is the crucial ingredient that gives the library its trademark Hollywood sound. THE SONY PICTURES SCORING STAGE The Sony Pictures Scoring Stage is the largest motion picture scoring venue in the world. The main scoring area has remained unchanged since the 1930s to preserve its unmatched acoustics and unique ambiance. It measures 93ʼ wide by 67ʼ long by 34ʼ high. One of the first scores recorded there was the Wizard of Oz (Herbert Stothart). Its success allowed the stage to become primarily dedicated to the art of the film score. John Williams has used the stage on many occasions for scores such as ET, Schindlerʼs List, War Horse, and The Adventures of Tin-Tin. Other scores recently recorded there include Toy Story 3 (Randy Newman), Spider-Man (Danny Elfman), Alice in Wonderland (Danny Elfman), Transformers: Dark of the Moon (Steve Jablonsky), Wall-E ( T h o m a s Newman), The Amazing Spider- Man (James Horner) and Star Trek (Michael Giacchino).
CinePerc is revolutionary in its scope and sound quality. The library was designed by composers, for composers, with direct feedback from the film music community during its development. The result is a library that is easy to use, composer-friendly, and sounds professionally mixed right out of the box. The Interface The MIXER tab will be open by default when you load your first patch. The number of faders youʼll see depends on the patch, but all patches contain a similar set of mic channels to help you dial in the perfect mix for the job. The Mix presets are there to give you quick and diverse options for the sound of the instrument, and will save you a ton of time if you are mixing on a deadline. If you do have time to tweak, feel free to enter the Custom Mix preset and create your own settings. Use the on/off switch and mute buttons on each fader to enable/disable those channels. Keep in mind that this will affect your RAM usage. Also note that the Full Mix and Quad Mix were created using the other available mics and outboard processing, so if you try to mix channels together that share audio material, conflicting channels will automatically mute to avoid phasing. You can also click output at the bottom of each fader to route channels to different Kontakt outputs should you so desire. Also note the send and pan knobs. The send knob will allow you to send different amounts of signal per channel to the patchʼs reverb, which is controlled on the Settings page.
The MAPPING tab will often have parameters that allow you to switch mallet type, playing style, and other performance variables on the fly. We kept the mapping tab around for every patch in case we want to add content in the future, but many patches donʼt utilize it. In those cases the slots on that particular tab may be empty. Be sure to check this tab for every instrument so you are aware of its capabilities. In most cases you can customize different articulations and playing methods so that they are controllable in a way that suits your workflow. Use the Custom Map to make your own presets. On many patches there are KEYSWITCHES that you can enable/disable but not change. On the example below, youʼll see you can set Release Samples to Keyswitch, which will enable you to turn release samples on/off with predetermined keyswitches, which will be displayed in red on the keyboard display. By default A#-1 will turn release samples ON, and C#0 will turn release samples OFF. Note that CC#100 and 101 are used internally to control attack and release, so you shouldnʼt use those controller numbers on these patches as it can cause problems with the way the patches behave.
The SETTINGS tab provides you with even more control over the way the instrument will behave. The first thing you will notice in the top left section is the Reverb control. Here you can turn the reverb on, set the overall amount, and choose your preset by clicking the Preset button. This convolution reverb uses impulse responses from the amazing-sounding Bricasti M7 reverb. Note that the send knobs on the mixer page are sending signal to this reverb control. Next to this youʼll see a switch called L/R swap. This exchanges the left and right channels. You might want to do this on the Drum Set and mallets for example, to choose whether the listener should hear from the conductors perspective or the more traditional drummerʼs perspective. Beneath the Reverb controls there is a dynamics fader that will allow you to compress the dynamic range of the instrument. For example, if you are controlling dynamics with the mod wheel, this slider will allow you to zoom in on a specific dynamic range and have the sound of the instrument affected less by extreme changes in the mod wheelʼs position.
Across the bottom of the Settings tab, you will see more sample controls. When set to Random, the Round Robin switch will randomly cycle through different samples to prevent the dreaded machine-gun effect. When set to Cycle, the engine will just cycle through the round robin samples in the same order every time. The RR reset, when set to ON, will reset the order of the round robin cycling after you have stopped hitting any midi keys. The RR reset knob controls how long it will take to reset. Pushing/sliding it all the way down will make it reset in 1 second, and pushing/sliding it all the way up will cause it to reset in 10 seconds. This enables you to control, down to the sample, exactly how the patch will behave each time your track is played. Turning on the Sample Start control will let you use the knob to advance the sample start position. This will make the attack of the note sound less realistic, but can lead to increased tightness and responsiveness from the instrument. The Attack and Release knobs are linked to a traditional ADSR. Turn the attack up for a longer, smoother attack, and turn the release up to hear more of the instrumentʼs ring out. We have also provided multiple effects for your convenience - HiPass and LowPass filters, Delay, Stereo Imaging, Chorus, Lo-Fi, Distortion and Compression. When using these built-in Kontakt effects keep in mind that they can be very heavy on your CPU.
Keyboard Layouts In the following pages youʼll find detailed descriptions of the way each patch is laid out on the keyboard. If you see (Duplicate) next to a labeled piano key, it means that set of Round Robins is identical to the non-duplicate version, and was just mapped again for ease of playing back and forth on two different keys. Striking the two keys together is not recommended as if it triggers the same sample you will hear phasing. This manual includes all four CinePerc libraries, so if you are only looking for a certain library or patch, use the Table of Contents or click the boxes below to skip to the relevant section of the manual.
