WoodBoxes, cajon libraries

UVI engine XT (UVI Workstation, MachFive...)

WoodBoxes is a compilation of two Cajon libraries, WoodBox a regular sized Cajon and TheBox a Bass Cajon.

WoddBox has been recorded with 2 microphone positions, a stereo pair in front of the Cajon and another one facing the back. All the samples have been carefully trimmed to keep the phase alignment.
TheBox was recorded only with one microphone position, but it still has all of the details required to make the library sound realistic.

You can mix the two microphone positions.
The Mapping Presets: you can wether use the default preset or you can create yours.
The Midi Learn: you can remap any element to any key quickly by pressing the current key of the element you want to move, clicking on Midi Learn and the pressing the target key.
The Sensitivity will set the minimum volume for velocity 1 and give you access to all the dynamics that you want.
