Also Gretsch, but one probably needs to be real specific about what years of manufacture. Generally the most desired models are the old Rogers and Leedy (Conn-made) sets, as well as Ludwig before the 60's when they reoriented their timbales to appeal to crossover artists from rock. Too much resonance and it overpowers the main tone and also can conflict with other kit pieces and have an impact on the perceived polyrhythm. Most of the modern timbales are poorly made, and this would reflect in sample libraries as well, as the cascara would have poor resonance (or the wrong pitch).īFD is eminently customizable, and I heavily tweaked the raw timbale samples to remove almost all resonance as timbales mix the best when dry. Of the older sets, Ludwig is the one to stay away from as it was a rock kit and not appropriate for latin music. Slingerland brass models are more widely respected than this still set in BFD. Also, it is steel instead of the preferred brass (or bronze, even copper at times can be had and is better than steel). The Slingerland set in BFD Percussion is from the 60's and isn't too well thought of compared to their earlier takeover of the Leedy set in the 50's that had previously been made by Conn in the 40's. Not so much of concern in sample libraries as the library vendor will have made their own choices anyway. Mostly this has to do with the lugs and the tuning mechanism as well as the cowbell holder and what types of skins ship with them. Also mixed reports on Pearl, but surprisingly universal praise of Latin Percussion. The EZDrummer Latin Percussion library is quite nice, but I am reading mixed reviews of Meinl timbales, depending on the model. I want my timbales to 'snap' and 'crack' at a higher pitch than the largest set is capable of doing. I can't use the Flying Hand timbales as it's a 14'/15' set (common in Cuban music and outdoor festival use) and I prefer the more common 13'/14' set. OK, now that I'm off jury duty, I'm back in full swing, and am at the point where I am reviewing all of the non-drum percussion sounds on my jazz album, starting with timbales.
