Balafon

Balani is a 2 1/2 octave balafon (or balaphon) with small calabash resonators from Guinea.

This balafon has a very different scale compared to the european ones. The instrument originally plays a B major scale (20 notes), Acoustic Samples extended it (to 33 notes) for this library and also gave us the posibility to fine tune it.

Product Features:

• 230Mb, 967 samples.
• 12 Velocity layers for the sustain.
• 4 takes per note to avoid the machine gun effect (round robins).
• about 13 Velocities for the release.
• Both original and corrected tunings are available for a traditional or contemporary sound.
• Advanced UVI scripting
