Spitfire Audio Glass and Steel (Digital product)

Spitfire Audio Glass and Steel is a unique and innovative collection of tuned percussion sounds created from everyday glass, metal, and china objects. Captured on the dry stage at Spitfire Studios, this library features 45 instruments and objects—from metal bowls to wine glasses—played by the world-renowned percussionist Paul Clarvis. Through creative and unconventional techniques, these objects were transformed to produce a diverse array of unidentifiable sounds, shimmering overtones, metallic hits, rhythmic tension beds, distorted sub-basses, and ethereal pads.

This collection offers over 235 presets designed to inspire composers and sound designers alike, including cinematic rhythms, disturbed morphs, hand-blown pads, and tweaked raw sounds. All sounds are powered by Spitfire’s versatile eDNA engine, allowing deep morphing and customization to shape the sonic character to suit any project.

Glass and Steel is perfect for composers looking to break away from traditional instrument sounds and explore mystical, shimmering textures. Its rich tonal palette has been employed in diverse genres like psychological thrillers, science fiction, fantasy, horror, and nature documentaries, making it a versatile tool for adding unique emotional and atmospheric layers to your music.
