This expansion is additional content: to use it, you must already own an EZDrummer license (compatibility also indicated for Superior Drummer). Activation is done online and requires an Internet connection.
What Latin Cuban Percussion EZX Is For
Latin Cuban Percussion EZX is designed to provide a complete percussion section for your productions: Salsa, Son, Mambo, Latin Pop, Reggaeton, Afro-Cuban, Latin Jazz, film music, modern funk, or organic electro. The idea is simple: add credible percussive layers around a drum kit, create call-and-response patterns, reinforce rhythmic movement, and establish a genuine "Latin" identity in the mix.
In both studio and home studio settings, this EZX allows you to program realistic parts quickly while maintaining the precision needed for complex arrangements (breaks, variations, fills, left hand/right hand patterns, accents, and syncopations).
Main Features
A Collection of Essential Instruments
The pack gathers the most commonly used percussion instruments in Latin and Cuban repertoires: congas, timbales, bongos, cajons, guiros, shakers, tambourines, cowbells, woodblocks, shekere, maracas, triangles, cabasas, claves, vibras, rain sticks. This provides you with a broad palette to build a complete arrangement, from a simple colorful backbeat to a dense percussive orchestration.
Studio Recording and High-End Performance
Recorded at Sear Sound Studios (New York) and produced with the care of professional capturing, this expansion emphasizes timbre quality, dynamics, and presence. Production and recording were handled by David Kowalski (Grammy Award winner and Emmy nominee), while the instruments were recorded by Richie Flores, a highly sought-after percussionist born in Brooklyn and raised in Puerto Rico, recognized for his experience with major artists and award-winning projects.
Result: clear attacks, controlled sustain, and a musical response that naturally fits into a modern mix, whether you seek a warm and organic tone or a sharper sound.
MIDI: Compose Quickly, Stay Authentic
Latin Cuban Percussion EZX comes with a large selection of genre-typical MIDI files. These patterns provide a solid foundation to start a track, develop a structure (verse/chorus/bridge), add variations, and create transitions. You can adapt them to your tempo, combine multiple layers, or extract rhythmic ideas to replay on your own virtual instruments.
A Natural Complement to Latin Cuban Drums EZX
Designed as a percussive complement to the Latin Cuban Drums EZX pack, this expansion enhances the coherence of your rhythm section: more details, more movement, more colors. It works perfectly to thicken a main drum kit, give breathing space to an arrangement, or build a rhythmic identity centered on percussion.
