CHIMERA Metallic Perc. Synth

WMD Chimera: High-Fidelity Metallic Synthesis

Chimera is a specialized digital percussion voice that excels at generating metallic timbres using granular synthesis. At its core are multisampled recordings of diverse metallic sources, which are broken down into grains and reshaped into percussive hits. The module features independent control over the samples' metallic characteristics via the "Surface" knob and the envelope's behavior via "Decay." With its crisp digital edge and dedicated high-pass/low-pass shelving EQ, Chimera provides the ideal solution for producers needing cutting-edge hi-hats and evolving industrial percussion in their modular setup.
