Marimba by Cinematique Instruments brings five octaves of wooden percussion to your productions, spanning C2 to C7. Close condenser recordings deliver a defined stereo image without room ambience, leaving you free to shape the space around each note. Three mallet articulations cover sharp plastic attacks, balanced felt tones and rounded, soft strikes. Blend the hard articulation into the gentler options when a warm part needs extra definition. Four round-robin groups and up to four velocity layers add variation to repeated notes. For movement, explore the eight-step arpeggiator with per-step note selection or the key-release tremolo engine. Octaver, drive, delay and six reverb types, including an infinite option, take the sound beyond straightforward acoustic parts. It suits producers and composers looking for delicate melodic hooks, rhythmic patterns or spacious textures in electronic tracks and cinematic arrangements.
