Product details
Djembe is one of the most popular ethnic percussion instruments. For recording we used a 10-inch handmade mahogany djembe with a genuine leather membrane. We recorded 3 microphone positions to maximum sound flexibility: The main condenser microphone capturing the vibrant membrane sounds, a dynamic microphone positioned opposite from the djembe’s resonator for depth, and condenser stereo pair for recording room’s acoustics. Each of the articulations (Bass tone, Open tone, Slap tone, Flam, Mute and Roll) is recorded in 4 levels of velocity and 5 layers of round robin.
