This sample set features a simple yet distinctive recording of blonde claves I picked up during a trip to Havana. These claves have a bright, resonant tone that sets them apart from typical, darker-sounding woods, giving them a unique clarity ideal for a variety of musical settings. Over the years, I’ve collected several sets of claves from Havana, each with its own character and timbre, and I plan to sample more as time permits to capture the full range of these Cuban percussion instruments.
Initially, I recorded these samples for personal use, just to add some variety to my collection for mockups and demos. I wanted a fresh, authentic sound that’s rarely found in typical clave libraries. This set includes four crossfaded velocity layers, allowing for a dynamic, nuanced playback that captures the instrument’s expressive qualities.
There are no extra effects or processing—just the pure, raw sound of Cuban claves. Perfect for musicians and producers seeking a clean, organic percussion sample that stands out with an unmistakable Cuban touch.
