The MIDI-mad rhythm addicts at 5Pin have been soaking up the African festivities involving a football and some controversial unmusical plastic horns. Mercifully none feature in Traditional Percussion by 5Pin Media – only crunching earthy rhythms from blistering sessions involving Djembe, Conga, Bongo, Cajon, Mandal, Pot drum and various other drums combined with shakers and specialist percussion instruments to provide the topping.

Combine the loops, midi and multisampled instruments and fuel your productions with a contemporary vibe as found in bombshells by Radio Slave (Koma Koma), Layo&Bushwacka (Djembe / Madagaskar), Minilogue (Jamaica), Sercan (Ajajaja / Flow), and Jamie Anderson vs Deepgroove (Voix) to mention but a few.

Traditional Percussion thumps in at a mighty 1.9Gb, comprising 610 loops in Acidized Wav & Rex formats, 479 Midi loops, 18 construction kits and 34 multisampled instruments in NNXT, Sampler and Kontakt 3 and Battery 3 formats. Also available seperately as an Ableton Live7+ pack.

True to the 5Pin formula, the Midi and Audio Loops ooze with natural unquantised grooves as captured in our live percussion sessions. All audio has been recorded in 24bit quality at 126BPM with light processing leaving plenty of scope for you the producer to add your own unique touch.

The multisampled instruments have been crafted using velocity layering and round robin sample playback for a more realistic, expressive and versatile sound pallet. When combined with the supplied midi loops, they literally come alive.

Some of the instruments featured include:

3 sizes of Djembe with Kesseng, Cajon, Congas, Bongos, Mandal, Berimbau, Caxixi shakers, Juju shakers, Shekeres, Guiro, Claves, Triangle, Tambourine, Agogo, Rain Stick and our own custom creations to name but a few.

So don’t delay!  Give yourself the edge with an extreme bag of versatile sounds, MIDI, rhythm and grooves that will never age in the form of 5Pin’s Traditional Percussion.

5Pin would like to say big Thank You to Trish and David at naturalflowdirect.com for their support and supply of instruments.
