Product Description
Originally inspired by audience applause, hip-hop samples, and classic drum machines, The WMD Fracture is a multi-particle percussion synthesizer that applies concepts from classic analogue clap circuits to granular synthesis methods.
It all starts from proprietary micro-samples recorded specifically for this purpose and ends with an engine built to suit these samples. Unlike WMD's other percussion module, the Chimera, which uses impulse rich samples as it’s tonal center, Fracture uses single impulse samples like claps, snaps, ping pong balls, opening a beer can, and many more. It then plays a group of similar samples back in a pseudo random order for unique hits. Density, Decay, and Tail affect tone and how “tight” your virtual clappers are to playing together.
The goal was to design a clap percussion module covering the range from classic drum machine claps all the way to full audience applause. WMD ended up with a module that covers a huge range of timbres beyond claps.
