Free percussion, what more could you ask for? Well, OK, maybe a bit more information about what's there.

Bobobo drums are peg-tuned drums shaped roughly like congas, hit with sticks, and played in ensembles. Bobobo is the name of a dance, a style of music, and a type of drum. They're sampled with 4 round robins, 4 velocity layers, and 2 articulations for all drums except the lowest, which gets 1 articulation. There are also clever controls to simulate muting, and one knob to tune the lower drums down and the higher drums up.

You probably know what a cajon is - a wooden box with a hole in the back and snare wires inside. Ours is sampled with five strike locations for the main hits, two side hits, two locations of hits with the snare removed (for a concert-tom-like sound), and finger rolls which can be crossfaded across two locations. Up to 5 round robins and 4 velocity layers. There's also simulated muting, and a contrast control which makes the microphone mix vary across the strike locations.

544 total WAV samples, 90 MB of diskspace, SFZ mappings, GUI for Sforzando. Get it here:

No walkthrough yet, but I'll make one sometime.

Thank you

You're welcome.

Also just fixed a file path error that affected Macs - now all the file path slashes are forward slashes, which should work for everybody. So, anybody on a Mac who got that error should redownload.

These sound great and the controls are excellent.
