Axe is a SampleTank LE-based Sound Module with sampler/synth engine.

Including more than 550 MB of sounds and loops, Axé captures the allure and mystique of typical Brazilian rhythms and sound, containing all the instruments of the Batucada set such as Surdo, Tamborim, Pandeiru, Berimbau, Repinique, Guiro, Agogo and many others. Pure Brazilian loops are played live by master carioca percussionists and were recorded by IK Multimedia at its studio facilities.

Axé is available in construction kits, a powerful tool to combine all sounds and loops, share the same tempo among them, and create in real time thousands of different grooves.Recycled files are included for maximum control and ease of editing, giving user the ability to change tempo without pitch variation, to quantize the resulting grooves, achieving a huge amount of different possibilities for every requirement.
