Compatibility | Royalty Free Content
All of the samples were recorded at 96Khz and 24-Bit resolution, however, they have been dithered down in Pro Tools HD to 44.1Khz 16-Bit to ensure compatibility with the wide range of keyboards that don't offer 24-Bit file import. The content is 100% royalty free which means you can use these samples and loops in your music releases with no license restraints.

Funked Up Percussion costs £19.95 / $40.58 (incl. VAT). An MP3 audio demo is available.
