I don’t mean to frighten you when I say this…but one day, not so long ago, I was walking through the forest and I startled a giant Man Shrimp. Half man, half prawn: I couldn’t believe it! His eyes bulged with fear before he scurried away.
I’m sure you’ve heard of other baffling cryptids, too. This pack goes out to them and especially to my elusive Man Shrimp friend.
The tonal pack is organized into 6 different “banks”. Here are examples of some of the sets in the various banks:
Bank 1: Melodic Drums - tonal material mapped across the heads of the drums
Bank 2: Chordal Rims - chord progressions mapped to the rims of the drums
Bank 3: Aeolian Creatures - Aeolian arpeggios mapped to the drums
Bank 4: Waves Creatures - stereophonic, waveAmorphic tonal mappings
Bank 5: Sphere Creatures - bendy melodic sets built from a template derived from Sunhouse’s Cymatic Habitat set “Harmony of the Spheres”
Bank 6: MIDI Keyboard - plug in a MIDI keyboard and play!
I hope you enjoy jamming and creating cool stuff with this pack! If you do enjoy any of the sets, feel free let me know in the comments or by DM. It would make me very happy to hear from you.
I think the most common reason to get an error message upon attempting installation of a user pack would be because Sensory Percussion 2 has not been updated to 2.5.
If this isn’t the reason for your error message can you share a screenshot or the precise text of the error message?
Thanks for letting me know. I think I may know what happened. I think the .spz filename is too long to work on Windows. I might not be able to update the installer until tomorrow, but one thing you could try until then would be to rename the .spz to something shorter.
Thanks again for letting me know! I’ll message back here when I’ve reuploaded the installer
@C_W_Lovell , I just swapped the .spz installer linked at the top of this post for one with a shorter name. Can you let me know if it works for you now?
If it doesn’t work for you there’s still one other intervention that is pretty much sure to work: shortening the top level folder name length for the entire sound pack, but before trying that I wanted to test to see if simply shortening the installer name length works.
I was able to get my hands on a Windows computer and I was able to recreate this installation issue. Then I was able to get the above version to install correctly.
In the near future I’ll update the installer at the top of this post to work for both Mac and Windows operating systems. I have an idea that I think should work, but for now I’ll leave the one at the top of this post for Mac OS and this one will work for Windows.
And thanks again for bearing with me with the installer issues
