​

​The MPC expansion consists of drum programs with eight velocity layers per pad (multisamples) for an authentic playing feel. It is optimized for standalone use, but can also be used in the MPC software. Here are the drums you will find in this special MPC expansion:

  • Thunder drum (the thunder drum is used for the foundation of Nyabinghi - deep and strong like a thunder. This drum is also called "Harp")
  • Fundeh drum (the Fundeh drum represents the heartbeat and is giving the Nyabinghi riddim his typical character)
  • Repeater drum (also called Kette or Akete - the repater drum is the counterpart of the thunder drum. It stands for the lightning to give the Nyabinghi percussive elements on top of the heartbeat)
  • Shaker (the shakers in Nyabinghi bringing a special flow and vibe to the riddim. They are big and clear in sound)

The sounds are all royalty free and include the commercial usage rights, so you can use the included sounds in your music productions without hesitation (reselling the samples in sample packs or for the production of competing products is not allowed, but this is common practice). The sample format is in WAV (44.1 kHz / 24-bit).

This MPC expansion has a file size of over 290 MB and contains 455 samples (one shots & loops). With this expansion you will get three MPC drum kits with 16 pads (eight velocity layers per drum pad sound) and three clip programs (each clip program contains 16 loops in 80 bpm and 4 bars / so 48 loops in total for all clip programs).   

Here are some sound examples of the drum programs:
