Gear
Seven microphones were used. Close, we have a pair of DPA 4011 in L R spaced, a Neumann U87 in the center, a pair of Akgs C414 for the room, a Neumann U87 far away suspended and a Crown PZM 30D on the floor, close to the marimba bass region. The preamps were a pair of Vintech X73, a pair of Avalons 737sp, a Focusrite Red 6, a Focusrite Red 7 and a UA 2610.

Deep Sounds
Different types of high quality drumsticks were used, the White stick, which has a more closed and velvety sound and the Blue Stick, with a smaller thickness, bringing a sound with more attack and greater brightness.
The library has an extensive dynamic range of velocities. All keys of the instrument were individually sampled, resulting in over 8500 samples.
