Percussion Palette
A collection of percussion instruments played in unusual ways.

The story
Here is a large collection of percussion instruments I have lying around. I recorded a lot of traditional drums from various parts of the world, often in a very untraditional way. I used snares on Djembes from Senegal, I ran an Udu from Morocco through an Eventide H3000, Talking drums with filters, shakers, kalimba (played on a snare drum) Frame drum, a Balinese Gong, a Bamboo Balafon and tons of random noise makers. I even sampled a dumpster thatβs outside my house now. That may warrant its own instrument! Till then, get your groove on! π
Reviews
Variety of percussion sounds
Wonderful! Almost all the keys are assigned with different hits, and the quality is excellent.
excellent percussion kit
Instant inspiration! Nice variety. Very useful.
Does exactly what it says on the tin.
It's a palette of percussion... Brilliantly recorded by Joshua as always. There's a really nice range of instruments to get stuck into from around the world. I suppose the only thing stopping it from getting a 5 star rating across the board, is that special/unique factor. But otherwise this is a solid library!
