Maximum Impact – The Ensemble Designer & Sound Designed Percussion!
Hidden Path Audio’s unique ENSEMBLE DESIGNER layout is designed to give you total flexibility when creating your percussion ensemble sound.
It allows you to not only stack elements into giant hits, but also perform your own rhythm with ensemble hits, accents, low/sub elements, and sound designed hit tails in real time.
It lets you customise your own percussion section from four main elements – a Sub, Main Hits, Accents and a Tail – using a Matrix Selector.
So for example, you can have an FX sub on one key, then a hit combo of taiko with surdo on a neighbouring pair next to an accent of metals layered with snare, and finally an atmospheric tail on the highest keys.
On the bottom, you also find four knobs for volume control: Sub Volume, Hits Volume, Accent Volume, and Tail so you can refine your overall sound even further.
SOUND DESIGNED PERCUSSION
In here are 6 nki patches, each of which concentrates on mangling the source audio based on a particular theme:
- Drumageddon – A whole host of brutal hits
- Mega Metals – Pure iron savagery
- Boomthwacks – Combines a swoosh/reversed element into a hit.
- Electrolysis – Combines different FX & processing which work very well as tails/ringouts over other big hits.
- Sub Chaos – Low-passed booms to shake your seat.
- Reverserized – Contains swooshes/reversed elements.

Take Control Of Your Mix With Up To 3 Mic Positions & Multiple Effects Options!
“Barrage” comes with a number of options for you to balance, shape and manipulate your percussion ensemble sounds in an easy to understand, yet powerful GUI.
THE MIXER
The “Barrage” mixer user interface also gives you complete control over the most crucial parameters.
An on-screen mixer featuring three microphone positions grants you total control over the mix, as well as the ability to load/unload mixes and mute/solo options while tweaking your sound.
The close fader is the Spot Mics on the head and off-centre, the stage is a Decca Tree of Neumann M50s with Schoeps CMC5/CMC6 also and the hall sound was captured with some Royer ribbons and Sennheisers.
With such great mics all feeding high end Millenia pre-amps, it is no surprise the sonics on offer here are of excellent quality.
EFFECTS
The built-in FX section gives you several sonic shaping possibilities and all the basic insert FX are present and correct such as:
- EQ – Lo, Lo-mid, Hi-mid and Hi
- Filters – 3 Types with Cutoff and Resonanace controls
- Envelopes – Attack and Release controls
However you also get some more exotic controls that allow you to really customise the sound, including:
- Slam – Transient shaping & compression
- Crush – A combination of saturation and gain adjustment
- Delay – Includes synced musical values for delay time
- Reverb – Includes a Plate, Hall, Room and Scoring Stage with controls for Size and Pre-delay
