Indiginus Brio (Latin) Percussion Update

A new version of Brio is available as a free download for existing customers. If you've bought Brio, you should get an email.
 
If you missed the previous thread on Brio, it's a Kontakt percussion library and sequencer (requires full Kontakt, versions 4 or 5, and just 40 bucks).
 
It's also a lot of fun, and although it originally had "Latin" in the name and does Latin percussion especially well, it's certainly not limited to any one genre. I use it a lot, and I haven't ever done anything I'd characterize as "Latin". Tracy has since dropped "Latin" from the product name, to reflect Brio's broader versatility. It's now called "Brio Percussion Ensemble".
 
I'm still downloading the update, but I'll have the straight scoop for you later today, after I've had a chance to give it a go. I do know that a new instrument has been added, "Bar Chimes". 


All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

    The bar chimes actually come as a separate instrument with the Brio update. You can also buy them separately, for $15, if you don't have Brio.
     
    There is a new effects tab featuring a filter, bitcrusher, distortion and stereo width control. The filter is the coolest addition because it has an LFO to modulate it, which makes simple patterns more interesting all by itself.
     
    The canned patterns have been updated. The new ones are a little less Latin-y and a little more general-purpose. I don't know yet whether this will mess up any custom presets you may have defined. If you have made a bunch of your own patterns you might want to back up your presets before installing the update, just for insurance. They're stored in Indiginus\Indiginus Brio\data\Preset Patterns.
     
    Everything else in the sequencer and mixer sections looks the same, as far as I can tell.

    Hey Bit. I downloaded and installed (ie...replaced) my BRIO folder with the update but I'm not seeing the bar chime instrument. I hear a bar chime on one key in the ensemble view but I don't see a separate bar chime window like the $15 buck one. Or should I??

    My DL had the bar chime instruments in a folder called instruments bar chime.  If you are loading the instruments via quick-load you have to copy the 2 bar chime instruments to it, but I'm sure you already know that.

    Maybe you have a bad DL?

    There apparently wasn't room on the UI to add the bar chime graphic like with the other instruments. But it's no big deal, as there aren't multiple articulations as with, say, congas. You either hit a chime or you drag something across the chimes. Not something you have to take a class at Julliard to master.
     
    For myself, I think I'll most likely load the bar chimes as a separate instrument anyway, since you get the full 2- or 2.5-octave range of notes that way plus the nifty "disturbance" feature.

    Found it. Hadn't copied the new one over properly.
