Critic Reviews

Toontrack Orchestral Percussion SDX

soundonsound.com

Toontrack's Orchestral Percussion SDX expansion offers an expansive, beautifully recorded selection of orchestral percussion instruments, showcasing the company's expertise in sound design. The collection stands out with impressive timpani and tubular bells that resonate magnificently, while a variety of drums, cymbals, and unique percussive elements bring depth to compositions. However, some limitations in articulation options and the need for the hefty Superior Drummer 3 software may deter potential users. Overall, this expansion is a strong addition to any music producer's toolkit, despite a few drawbacks.
