The options change depending on which type of loop or kit you're working on, with interface pages, relevant to each, clickable in the top right-hand corner of the window. The true power of this library comes to the fore when you begin exploring the options provided by NI/Heavyocity's GUI. There are 58 kits, which draw on a bank of 200 sound sources recorded into 500 single shot elements. These have all been bound up into Loop Menus-groups of matched sounds which work well within a particular genre, Single Loops-individual loops over which you have greater levels of control-and Construction Kits of individual hits. Among the sound sources are cars and machines being beaten to death with sledgehammers, machines grinding into one another to the point of destruction, as well as a collection of more traditional percussion instruments. However, rather than just being a playback device for the samples and loops, the way Damage is organized allows for huge modification of the sounds and myriad opportunities to personalize the library's content.ĭamage's sounds have all been recorded specifically for this library and I can only imagine it was enormous fun to put together. The library, once installed and unpacked, provides you with 30GB of content, with pre-made loops rubbing shoulders with individual hits layered up in construction kits. It is compatible with the former's Kontakt instrument both in "full" form, or for the free-to-download Kontakt Player. Shipped in boxed form on two DVDs, it's released as a collaborative effort between Native Instruments and Heavyocity. Damage, as its name suggests, is a library of percussive hits and loops with industrial carnage at its core.
