Specifically, the first fragment is recorded in the studio's large hall, which has the typical acoustics of a small auditorium, with microphones positioned 1 meter from the instrument: what you should hear is a present but ambient, rich, and three-dimensional sound. The second fragment has the instrument positioned 6 meters from the microphones: in this case, you should hear the sound distinctly recessed in the center behind the speakers with great depth, but also a vaguer, more nuanced, and less detailed sound.

We are faced with a rich percussion ensemble that offers a varied, disruptive, and definitive sample of percussive sounds. The two harmonic instruments, namely the marimba on the right and the vibraphone on the left, along with drums of various sizes, a powerful bass drum, bells, and various small percussion instruments, create a very pleasant but also definitively complex sonic fresco for any sound reproduction system.
