All material provides the live-emphasized essence to aid in production realism, artistry and identity.

The content is of great use in any music genre and can be easily integrated into any production where some Latin flavor is desired. Give your production more color and inspiration with powerful and hypnotic percussion grooves, real Latin Horns and Brass solos, authentic Montuno Piano grooves, Très, Flamenco or Latin Guitars and many other authentic Instruments and Vocal parts used in state-of-the-art Latin music.

This release contains nearly 2 gigs of tightly played and fully arranged Latin grooves and breaks, divided into single track loops, solos and single sounds. Every construction kit can be easily remixed, rearranged, or merged for maximum flexibility with the included Elastik virtual instrument.

Reviews

Future Music, 11-2009

Ueberschall’s Elastik player – the VST equivalent of Marmite – returns with this collection of Caribbean construction kits. Whether you love or hate Elastik, the samples here showcase some of the best Salsa, Merengue and Flamenco session musicians from Puerto Rico, Columbia, Cuba, Venezuela and, er… Germany. You won’t find any synth loops, just live instruments recorded in glorious 24-bit accuracy. Guitars, piano, horns violin and vibraphone are joined by the much sought-after accordion. There are frankly not enough Caribbean accordion samples in the world, so we can only applaud Ueberschall for that. Check this one out for a bit of Latin spice.
