Background:
This virtual instrument was recorded by Bryan Woolbert and Suzanne Woolbert at Bryan Woolbert Music Studios. Using a Telefunken M80 (turquoise), a Telefunken TF11 FET, and a Shure SM57, all run through AVID® Pro Tools | Carbon preamplifiers, a set of Cosmic Percussion Sleigh Bells were recorded in-depth. Traditional shake ("Shake"), sideways shake ("Side"), and straight vertical shake ("Straight") techniques were recorded as one-shots at 7 distinct velocities. One-shots were also formed as the bells were swung in a circular motion at 2 distinct velocities. Rounds of swinging the bells horizontally back and forth, as well as in circular motion, were recorded using all three mics. Frenzies of 7 varying lengths, which correspond to their respective velocity layers, were also captured with all three mics. A few extra "Swing Shake" samples are also included. Pictured below are the microphones and how they were positioned while recording.
