毁灭之声
DAMAGE 提供了 30GB 风格剧烈化的工业之声以及交响鼓组,并将它们融入到密集电子原声之中。 Percussive Kits 打击乐组有着超过200款经过深度采样的打击乐声源,以及超过500款单击元素,每一个鼓声都由7层力度层组成,并附以9个样本的 round-robins。
它还有着超过700款节奏切片式的 Loop,其皆以菜单风格或单独loop的形式呈现,以供你进行更好的细节调控。 即使是多么复杂的声音都能够发挥用处,DAMAGE 的每一声都有着令人毛骨悚然的电影式音质。
惩戒通行证
DAMAGE 能与你的 DAW 无缝同步,并且有着相当利于声音创作的工作流。 那引人注目的用户界面是交由专业的配乐师与音效师所共同设计的。 它有着自动化的节拍同步,还能够直接通过拖放操作导出 loop 的 MIDI 数据,以供你的音序器使用。
你可以使用同步化的键位开关来实时操纵效果器,进行 Loop 重混,或是使用独特的"Damage Hits"来制作预告大片。 最后,还可以使用 "Punish" 大旋钮,来增加声音的压强。
关于 HEAVYOCITY
Heavyocity 的代表人物包括 Dave Fraser,Neil Goldberg 和 Ari Winters 等来自商业音乐制作前沿的经验丰富的作曲家和音响设计师。 他们的理念很简单:设计最前沿的、启发灵感的乐器和声音,以大大增强你的创造力。 Heavyocity 花了大概两年的时间才将 DAMAGE 制作完毕 – 幸运的是,没人因此受伤。

乐器详情
DAMAGE 的声音都由 loop、kit 以及效果器组成。 所有的 loop 与 kit 都可作为无缝层叠的素材,可用性相当灵活,并且可以简单的分类为四种风格: 史诗交响、史诗 Tech、工业风格以及 Mangled Pop。 在下面的教学视频中你将会对 DAMAGE 有更全面的了解。

LOOPS
DAMAGE 能为你提供 Loop Menus(菜单) 和 Single Loops(单独) 两种 Loop 模式。 Loop Menus 指的是一系列匹配的 Loop,它们会智能地映射到键盘上,通过它你就可以快速地创建节拍同步的律动。 还可以通过混合匹配不同风格的 loop 来创造出独特的层叠式节奏。
而 Single Loop 预设则结合了细节入微的控制功能以及直观的演奏性能两大优点 - 你可以为每段切片都进行电平、声像以及音高的控制,并利用键位触发器来对切片进行实时的随机化、冻结、drop 以及反转。
鼓组
DAMAGE 能为你提供 58 款多采样鼓组,而这些鼓组都由超过 200 款深层采样的打击乐音源以及超过 500 款独立单声元素组成。 这些混合式的鼓组将打击乐与部件采样声混合为一种毁灭式的音效,能够为任何制作增添个性化与力量感。
独特的 'Damage Hits' 由多层打击音以及尾音组合而成,并且它们都能够通过调制轮来进行控制。 非常适用于转接(stings)和过渡。
效果器
你可以为 loop 和鼓组分配三层式的音色效果器 - 总体处理效果器、演奏触发式效果器和单独调节式效果器。
Master Effects 总线效果器能够使用失真、混响、延时、过载等等效果。
Trigger FX 触发式效果器 (如图所示) 则能够实现实时触发,并且其使用界面也非常直观易用,非常适合用于快速的声音创意调控。
而 EQ 与滤波器则能够为每一套鼓声进行简单高效的微调,同时,Punch 旋钮能够为任意素材带来显著的过载以及音色特性 - 你只需要轻拧旋钮,把控好整体火候。
声源
Heavyocity 为 DAMAGE 而录制了传统打击乐以及精良的军鼓与嗵鼓,还有多种多样的木制以及金属制物品发声。 除此以外,他们还设法录制了大量的非常规声源,其中包括爆炸的小汽车、起重机,还有废旧车、垃圾铁桶,以及各种从极高空掉下的大型物件。

DAMAGE 幕后
Heavyocity 团队与 DAMAGE 不得不说的故事...
DAMAGE 之路
"我们的目标就是通过融合传统鼓组与特制音效,来创造出独一无二的新声音领域。 在完成电子元素与实录打击乐组的混音部分前,我们在无数个地方采集了 DAMAGE 所需要的发声素材,让 DAMAGE 得以拥有我们所青睐的声音深度。
我们在纽约的 Heavyocity 工作室,Prism Sound Studios 在波士顿的‘The Church’工作室,以及 Skyline Studios 在曼哈顿的工作室,以及康乃迪克州的一个废品站,还有许多的其它地点完成了所有录制。"
来看看这部影片的幕后故事 'Behind The Damage(毁坏幕后)' 。
两年的细节追求
"在制作音源的两年间,我们深度录制了许多独特的打击乐声。 我们用专业的录音设备,以 96 kHz,24-bit 的精度录制了超过 26,500 个采样(然后都经过精细的降采样操作,制作为 44.1 kHz 24-bit),设备包括 SSL 与 Neve 的大型调音台,API、Wunder、Neve 以及 Avalon 的话筒前级/EQ,还有 AKG、Mojave、Sennheiser、Lawson 以及 Neumann 的麦克风。
DAMAGE 中的大量深层采样素材都以合奏式的设置录制而成。 通过这种合奏的录制方式,我们能带给你强大而细致的演奏动态 (并且大多数鼓组都有着9层 round robins 式多采样以及6层力度分层) 以及广范的打击声效。"
蓄意破坏
"除了 Heavyocity 标志性的真实采样声,我们还为 DAMAGE 注入了侵略性的黑暗元素(就如同 DAMAGE 之名)。 我们通过多层叠加以及EQ处理,创造出许多具有高打击感以及强大低频下潜的单击声效。
其中最出色的鼓组当属标志性的 'DAMAGE Hits',它能够为你的银幕制作带来大量毁灭性的打击声音,并且还支持使用调制轮来进行深度控制。"
处理 DAMAGE
"对于 DAMAGE 的声音开发而言,录制后的音频处理与录制过程同样重要。
随着 Heavyocity 那 '音乐融合音效设计' 理念的建立,我们会使用到大量的外置录音设备、插件,并层叠大量反常规的声音元素,以创造出振奋人心的声音效果。"
用户界面设计
"DAMAGE 的 GUI (图象式用户界面) 的设计是一项巨大的挑战。 它必须能够激发灵感,且操作直观,同时还要将节拍部分(loop)与打击鼓组(多采样/单击)联系起来。 因此,我们为每一款乐器都制作出了独特的 GUI,而不是固定一套。
我们想让界面带有生锈的现实质感,让用户会有上手调节的欲望。 经过数月的头脑风暴与多次修正,我们终于在功能性、演奏性以及外部个性间找到了平衡点。"
DAMAGE 效果器
"DAMAGE 提供了简便而直观的音色编辑方式,而且无需离开界面即可完成。 你可以控制 EQ、滤波器、音高以及大量的总线效果器 (失真、Lofi、混响、延时、压缩)。 对于许多打击乐组而言,你可以对每一个鼓组都进行独立的弯音、滤波以及均衡调节。
除了总线控制与效果器以外,每一个预设还包含了标志性的 Punish 旋钮。 这个 Punish 旋钮融合了饱和器、失真、压缩器以及限制器,能够让你的声音兼具音乐性与毁灭性。"
“它来自那边...”
"对于多麦克风鼓组来说,鼓组在立体声场中的定位尤为重要。 在 Stage(舞台) 页面中, 我们为你提供了大量经过深层采样的打击乐器与银幕式单击音效,还有许多的制作型预设,并且能够允许你快速将鼓组在35种'舞台'位置间进行切换。
通过使用三个 Master Mixer 总线调音台的推子,你可以很方便地对近距离拾音、房间以及厅堂三个位置麦克风收音的平衡,以及话筒的衰减特性进行调整。 同时,你也可以对每一个位置的麦克风进行独听或静音,或者移除部分不用的麦克风位置,以减轻采样加载负担。"
自定义律动
"在制作了如此多样的打击乐 Loop 库以后,我们开始构思为玩家提供彻底改变律动的方式。 对于单独 loop,我们提供了 'modifier 调制' 控制,让你能够进行反转、断层以及跳过等操作,并能够对 loop 的切片进行实时的随机化。 而最后制作出的调节系统则远远超越了我们一开始的想法 - 它能够让你随意编辑或重塑 loop,制作成完全不同的,属于自己的声音。
你还可以对每一块切片都进行音高、音量以及声像的更改。 而如果需要进行更细节化的重调,你还可以直接通过拖放操作,将 MIDI 数据置入你的宿主音序器中。"
TRIGGER FX(效果触发器) 2.0
"此外,DAMAGE 还为你提供了额外的控制参数,它的 T-FX 页面基于此前已经大获成功的 'Trigger FX(触发效果器)' 所创建,这个概念最先出现于 Evolve Mutations 2。 你只需要使用你的 MIDI 键盘,你就能够轻易地为 Loop 或者单击鼓组增添 Punch(打击感),Phaser(移相),Rotator,LoFi,Glitch FX,Pitch Sweeps,Filter Sweeps,以及延时等效果器,实时操控音色变化。"

Javier Navarrete ("Pan's Labyrinth", "The Warrior's Way", "Inkheart" - Oscar Nominated Composer)
RAMIN DJAWADI
"Heavyocity has raised the bar with Damage; the sounds, controls, and the programming of Damage are truly inspirational."
Ramin Djawadi ("Iron Man", "Clash of the Titans", "Game of Thrones", "Prison Break", "Fright Night")
JASON GRAVES
“Damage is everything a composer wishes for in a virtual instrument - outstanding sounds combined with instant gratification and ultimate customization. Heavyocity has an incredibly high bar for quality and you can hear it in every preset. Plus, the ability to tweak and mangle to my heart's content is invaluable! Damage just became my go-to source for cutting edge rhythmic sounds."
Jason Graves ("Dead Space", "F.E.A.R.", "Command and Conquer")

David Buckley ("The Town", "The Good Wife", "The Forbidden Kingdom")
DAMIAN TAYLOR
"I like having a huge pallet of sounds to draw from, and Damage has extended mine further. It's not just a preset factory though, there's so many ways to mold or mangle the sounds into a shape that works. It might look like a big nasty noise machine, but it can be used to provide some subtle contrasts in an otherwise pretty setting too."
Damian Taylor (mixer/engineer/programmer/and more for Björk on her album 'Biophilia')
JOHN DIGWEED & NICK MUIR
"When we loaded up Damage, the sound quality of the samples took our breath away. It sounds absolutely awesome - huge!"
John Digweed & Nick Muir (Bedrock Records)
LIAM H (THE PRODIGY)

Liam H (The Prodigy)
CHASE & STATUS
"We were hoping that no one would find out about the new Damage pack from NI but the secret's out. Pure sickness from the best in the biz."
Chase & Status (BRIT Awards 2012 Nominees)
JOE TRAPANESE

Joe Trapanese ("The Raid", collaborations with Daft Punk for "Tron: Legacy", M83, ...)
JORGE CORANTE
"For intense and aggressive percussive elements, DAMAGE is the perfect driving force to my musical compositions. I'm especially fond of the interface's intuitive yet robust and unlimited programmability. I've been a longtime Heavyocity user, and I'm awestruck at their ability to producte new groundbreaking sample libraries that never disappoint."
Jorge Corante (writer/producer for "The Town", "CSI: Miami", "Ninja Assassin", "Scary Movie 3")
CLAUDE SAMARD-POLIKAR
"I first used DAMAGE while composing the score for a major TV series. It helped me to develop fresh ideas in a quick, creative and intuitive way. Those inspiring textures pushed me into new territories and gave me the edge I was looking for. DAMAGE is very useful where epic, ballsy, energetic and organic sounds are required."
Claude Samard-Polikar (MD for Jean-Michel Jarre, producer for "Rayman Arena" video game, "Best Music" Awards for film music in "Bo Ba Bu" and "Christopher Roth")
PIETER A. SCHLOSSER
