Propanium (aka MILLTONE) is a highly emotive, metal based, tongue drum. The drum has certain similarities to the Hang Drum, but is more clean, less “steel-drummy”, has more harmonics and overtones. We recorded Propanium in a variety of ways including finger, brushes, mallet articulations and tons of effects. The drum follows our “deep-sampling” methodology and the larger patches generally have approx. 10 velocity layers and 6-8 round robin (repetition) pr. layer, however certain patches (ex. overtone patches) have over 35 velocity layers for maximum playability.

Propanium really rocks. You guys have done a sampling masterpiece. This is one those libraries I can see myself trying to shove into every production I’m doing… :) Keep up the excellent work!

I saw a guy playing this on the streets of Oslo and I couldn’t figure out how the sound was created. Now I won’t have to.

I figured I already had the Hang Drum, I didn’t need it. Wrong! Dead wrong. When I finally got around to buying it, I was shown that this is a brilliant, and amazing library, quite possibly the most beautiful and expressive in the entire Tonehammer library (and I own just about every thing they offer).

This is brilliant , the brushed articulations set this head and shoulders above all other tongue drum instruments currently available.You guys continue to amaze me with every release.

The MILLTONE drum is unique in sound and very well crafted. I love the harmonics that come out of the drums. Very good craftsmanship. Great buy for anyone into percussion.
