--------------------------
A steel tongue drum or tank drum is a round steel slit/tongue drum originally made from an empty propane cylinder. The instrument is played with the fingers or with mallets.
I have recorded such an instrument and created a playable sampler instrument out of it in a format of Ableton Live's Drum Rack.
The samples are legally royalty-free as I have recorded the physical instrument myself.
Adjustable parameters:
Fade in - Control sample fade in time
Fade out - Control sample fade out time
Spread - Stereo spread
Pan - Panorama (L-R)
Filter Freq - LP Filter Frequency (24 dB/oct)
Filter Res - LP Filter Resonance
Transpose - transpose all samples at once (by semitones)
Volume - all samples' output volume
