Unlock the Rhythm of Latin and Cuban Percussion with Toontrack's EZX Expansion
Released as an expansion for EZdrummer 2 (fully compatible with EZdrummer 3 and Superior Drummer 3), the Latin Cuban Percussion EZX is not a drum kit. It is a dedicated percussion ensemble recorded at the legendary Panama Studios in Santiago, Chile—the same hallowed ground where countless Latin classics were tracked. toontrack latin cuban percussion ezx ekspansi top

Immersing in the Sounds of Latin and Cuban Percussion Pop Producers: Add organic movement to stiff electronic
No product is perfect. If you are a hand percussionist looking for the extreme nuance of a dedicated Kontakt library (like hand scraping on a güiro), you might find the EZX a bit "clean." Furthermore, because it is designed for EZdrummer, you cannot isolate every finger stroke; you are limited to the mapping provided.
Producers of pop, Latin jazz, reggaeton, and even cinematic music face a recurring challenge: programming realistic percussion. While EZdrummer excels at acoustic kits, its core library lacks the specific articulation of hand drums and metal percussion. Released in collaboration with veteran percussionist and producer Juan "Cano" Rojas (known for work with Celia Cruz and Tito Puente Jr.), the Latin Cuban Percussion EZX was designed to solve this problem. It offers a meticulously sampled collection of instruments recorded at Studio A in Bogotá, Colombia—a room chosen for its warm, live ambiance.
