Say Cheese with the Soundpaint Smiley Drum
Experience the unique charm and musical potential of the Smiley Drum – a truly extraordinary custom tonal percussion instrument crafted by a talented father and daughter duo in Mexico. This rare gem had limited production, with only a couple ever sold on eBay. Fortunately, Soundpaint managed to secure one for themselves, and now it can be yours too!
The Smiley Drum possesses a distinct personality, exuding a warm and joyful sound that will add a joyous atmosphere to your music. It also holds the potential to be transformed into something entirely new and unique in Soundpaint. The creative power lies in your hands!
The Soundpaint Smiley Drum encapsulates the essence of this exceptional instrument. The drum is a 10-tongue major pentatonic variation of the classic propane drum concept, boasting a shallower and wider pan than most. The sound it produces is simple, crisp, and bright, with subtle overtones that beautifully complement its unique tonality. Soundpaint meticulously recorded single notes on the tuned tongues, capturing percussive slaps on the sides and edges, and even included various roll and crescendo effects to add depth and versatility. This comprehensive collection allows for seamless playability, making it a perfect addition to enhance their existing range of tuned percussion libraries.
The best part is that the Smiley Drum is free. Soundpaint believes in sharing the joy and inspiration this instrument brings, allowing users to explore new sonic horizons and infuse their compositions with its distinct character. Unleash your creativity, and embark on a musical journey like no other with the Smiley Drum at your side.
