The story
When I was working on The Synth Orchestra, The process of creating mallet-like sounds became a hobby of mine. I also sampled all of them and put some of my favourites together. I hope you enjoy!
Thank YOU!

Not just synth mallets!
Inside this package you will find 6 different instruments to play with. Everything seems simple yet very nicely sampled, and they all play really well out of the box, no exceptions.
- Starting off with Penzamba, it sounds more like a synthesized harp to my ear. The sound is very dry by default so it'll take effects like a champ.
- Siano sounds very similar to a piano, but it has a longer and more wet sound to it.
- SyBell is an actual and trully lovely mallet, with a very nice resonance to it.
- Sylophone has a more metalic attack, and it sounds better in the high registers.
- SyMenba is only playable high though, and it features a dry retro pluck sound with an staccato articulation.
- Last but definitely not least is Syrimba, which as you may have guessed, it is similar to a Marimba, though it is very warm and cute while also sounding synthesized.For me the Tone and Reverb settings don't work at all though in any instruments. Not sure what went wrong there. Nevertheless, this is a nice synth collection that will surely enhance your options!
Mallet-inspired synth sounds
This is an interesting collection of mallet-inspired synth sounds. It's worth noting that while the GUI implies that the tone knob can be controlled by the mod wheel, it doesn't seem to be connected. There are several very playable sounds here which have been well recorded and well edited. There's nothing in this collection which is particularly unique or inspiring, but the sounds are all very solid and well-presented. Great work!
