Characterful Kalimba with atmospheric textures. A dry recording of an antique Kalimba coupled with our signature Atmosphere Layers.
Thumb Piano is a dry recording of a characterful Kalimba, enhanced with three of our signature Atmosphere Layers to add depth, texture, and cinematic charm. Each layer is designed to complement the instrument’s natural resonance, allowing you to create rich, evolving soundscapes or subtle, meditative textures with ease.
The library’s layout mirrors that of some of the tuned percussion instruments from our Zen: Meditations collection, making it instantly familiar to users of that library while providing a gateway to explore its broader palette.

NKS Support:
We’re pleased to offer full NKS support for Blueprint #22: Thumb Piano . Leveraging the power of Native Instruments ‘ Komplete Kontrol keyboards , you gain full control of the instrument using the built-in display and on-keyboard parameter controls. This also means this library is accessible to blind and visually impaired musicians.
The Blueprint series libraries are free; however, due to the inability to download them from the publisher’s website without any hassle (registration on multiple resources, installation of additional software, and other inconveniences; and attempts to download from other sources—problems with VPN and constant disconnections), as well as user requests to host this series on ru tracker ★ org , the decision to host it was made and agreed upon with the relevant moderator.
