Pipe Drum
A pipe drum with five velocity layers.

The story
Recently I visited a familiy member in Madrid. Strolling through the centre I saw a musician playing a pipe drum. Pipes with different length were hit with rubber rags. A simple idea with a fascinating sound. Back home and still fascinated I wanted to find such an instrument on pianobook. As I could not find one, I had to create it myself. I found a free sample pipe hit with five velocity layers, tuned them and here is the result.
It turned out that godfather of music, Johann Sebastian Bach, wrote interesting music for this plastic instrument. Grab some midis from the internet or play the pipe drum yourself and have fun!
