The instrument comprises of 2 separate patches. The HITS patch where you will find mallet struck glassware. Along with FINGER BOW patch, where a more hybrid synth pad like sound resides, created from resonating the glassware with fingers across the circumference.
Within the instrument’s GUI there are 3 main sections:
STEP SEQUENCER - This section is a 16 step sequencer, with pitch and velocity as separate tables for powerful dynamic and rhythmic possibilities.
ATTACK, RELEASE, REVERSE - This section houses the first and last steps of an ADSR envelope, for longer releases or post strike attacks. Just fill up the bottle with Gin, on either / both sides and you’re off! Also found here is a reverse function, to easily switch the instrument to play all sounds back in reverse.
FX - Here is where the Delay and Reverb are housed. The delay is tempo linked for ease of use within a DAW. Simply select from the note value you would like your delay time to be, and set the feedback to taste! The reverb is a shimmery and bright verb, with the added bonus of being able to exclusively reverse just the reverb signal. Leading to some sonically beautiful and interesting results.
