Terracotta
Terracotta pots tonal-percussion instrument
Bell-like tones from old handmade Victorian pots and smooth modern ceramics: Terracotta is a uniquely organic tonal-percussion instrument that brings tangible earthiness to cinematic scores and rhythmic compositions. Perfect for adding alive, characterful detail to arpeggios, melodic lines, and atmospheric percussion — whether playing it straight or exploring textural territory with the included creative presets.
- Play bell-like terracotta tones across the full keyboard using 25 carefully sampled pots from Victorian to modern, each with 4 round robin and 4 velocity layers for natural, alive performances.
- Create unique tonal colors by blending mixer sounds like a resonating ceramic bowl, music box and plucked steel string, plus 40 presets ranging from straightforward percussion to creative textural explorations.
- Powered by Floe: a free, professional-grade sample platform with expressive performance and transformation (CLAP/VST3/AU).
- Fair prices always and a risk-free purchase with a 14-day refund guarantee. We don't do sales.
Diverse sources, cohesive sound
The 25 pots are diverse in size and structure; some are old handmade Victorian pieces while others are smooth and modern. The bell-like tone is consistent but there are intricate differences between them that, when combined, create a beautifully diverse instrument. Each pot was sampled with 4 round robins and 4 velocity layers, capturing natural performance variation across the full keyboard.
Blend and explore
You can blend in 'mixer' sounds to create new tones — a resonating large ceramic bowl, a music box and a plucked steel string. The 40 included presets range from straightforward percussion to creative textural explorations that push the instrument beyond its acoustic origins.
