Conga and Tumba Loops is possibly the most useful and versatile sample pack you will ever own. Expertly played by our main percussion man Gary Hammond, all loops and samples are presented separately as a close mic’d stereo file and a room mic stereo file enabling you to easily blend between the two for ultimate flexibiity and control over the final sound.

The Tumba or Tumba- dora as it is often known is the largest and deepest sounding drum, and the Conga slightly smaller and higher pitched. They originated from Africa but have been adopted by a number of different cultures and musical styles.

We spent a lot of time researching the drums, their history and how they are used in music today in order to create a unique sample pack that can stand the test of time.
Gary demonstrated during recording that congas and tumbas are extremely musical instruments, and a whole range of different sounds can be achieved just by hitting different parts of the drum head or using different parts of your hand to play, and this is reflected throughout the sample pack in the loops and samples provided.

The loops and samples are mapped out over 4 tempos of 110 BPM, 120 BPM, 128 BPM and 140 BPM in order to fit in with many contemporary musical styles, and presented in pristine quality 24 Bit Wav, Apple Loops or Rex2 Loops
