Balafon Refill and eXT sampler patch - plus wavs and a song

[Hovmod]

So I googled it, and I *think* this is called a Balafon.
I bought it in Equatorial Guinea, and although the seller said it was from Chad, the internets said the most important Balafon players are Guinean.

Have fun. Feel free to post songs using it in this thread...

eXT sampler patch (this was before I knew it was called a Balafon...)

Reason 3.0 Refill (contains some varieties, including pitch adjusted)

Simply the samples

Haha - here is a demo song I made using the refill, for those of you who might like to hear what kinds of sounds might hide in it...


Added to www.sampletorrents.com as well.

looks just like the Balafon I played once, beautiful instrument!
Any chance of outputting a Reason 2.5 refill ???

Hehe - no, I don't think I'll bother, because I've got the 3.0 Refillpacker and can't be bothered installing Reason 2.5 to check if it works. But I've put up a link for the samples themselves in the first post. They are labelled 1-10 from low to high, and 1-3 for velocity. Make your own Balafon patch, no matter what sampler you prefer...

Thanks for these, they're great!
