Abbey Road Orchestra: Metal Percussion Pro is the third instalment in the acclaimed Abbey Road Orchestra series by Spitfire Audio, designed specifically for professional composers, producers, sound designers, and music editors seeking a rich palette of metallic percussion sounds.

Recorded in the legendary Abbey Road Studio One by GRAMMY® Award-winning engineer Simon Rhodes and performed by virtuoso percussionist Joby Burgess, this library offers exceptional realism and depth. It features 58 meticulously sampled metal percussion instruments, ranging from classic cymbals and tam-tams to unique and experimental instruments like oil drums, waterphones, trash cans, and giant crashers, allowing composers to create everything from traditional orchestral impacts to cinematic sound design textures.

The library captures multiple articulations and playing techniques, including mallets, sticks, brushes, hammers, bowed cymbals, scrapes, and superball drags. Each instrument is recorded with up to 10 dynamic layers and 10 round robins, ensuring expressive and natural performances. Unique features such as discrete right and left-hand playing, voice choking, two-handed layout, and right/left mapping boost playability and creative control.
