If you own GigaStudio feel free to try out these free samples of Cuban instruments. There are also music scores and examples of the samples.

Legal Stuff

I am giving away some of my private samples in the hopes that

1. People can make good music with them.
2. People will buy my enhanced sample disks when they are ready.
3. People will buy some of my other products.

Also note these are for Giga 3 and won't work on Giga 2.5

These samples are 100% royalty free, but:

1. By downloading these samples you agree to let me know of any projects you are using them in.
2. You agree to credit Mayuli Entertainment for the use of its sounds.
3. You don't redistribute them without my permission. I will probably let you, but I want to know where this is happening
4. You don't sell any of the .gig files or wav files contained within. I think that is only fair.

Cuban Instruments

Marimbula

This is a sample of my Marimbula.
It includes the seven keys sampled and layed out in left to right order. This is not a chromatic instrument so don't worry about pitches. They are only approximations of high/low. I also include some hand slaps on the left and right sides.

This GigaStudio .gig file was made with 2 random plucks per key.

Campana Cubana

This campana I picked up in Cuba from a friend of mine. It was made from the fender of a 53 Dodge.

The sound is awesome and appears on many of my recordings, including Ban Rarra.

This GigaStudio .gig file has eight random samples on the side sticks and 4 on the open notes. Let this sucker ring.
