What Is BeatBuddy?

A full Brazilian percussion ensemble consisting of a complete range of authentic Brazilian instruments is now available for your BeatBuddy.

Each instrument was carefully tuned and treated before being played by percussion expert Kenneth Metzker at full dynamic range and with every articulation. Everything was captured in minuscule detail using high definition microphones set up for true-to-life stereo imaging. The recordings were then meticulously mixed and edited by Goran Rista and mapped for BeatBuddy.

The results are stunning: ultra-realistic, natural, life-like percussion section that you have to hear to believe.
