￥Modern Rhythms
The Cajon library was recorded at the 3ml studio in BH, Brazil, by the great drummer Helton Lima, using a very dry room with 4 microphones. A Shure Beta52 was used for the Low, a Shure Sm57 for the edges, a Rode NT5 for Snare and a Neumann TLM 103 for the room. A Focusrite ISA 428 was used for the capture in the UAD Apollo.

 

The Instrument
Three different models were used in the recording. Each one a distinct sonority. They are:
– Cajon Pithy (made in Brazil)
– Cajon Tierrapiano (made in Peru)
– Cajon Cletto (made in Brazil)
