Boomwhackers
The Instrument
Boomwhackers are lightweight, hollow, color-coded, plastic tubes, tuned to musical pitches by length. Boomwhackers produce musical tones when struck together, on the floor, or against nearly any surface. Boomwhackers are often used by performance artists and other musical performance groups to add an element of spectacle. Music educators also use them extensively to teach fundamental concepts in rhythm, harmony, and melody; they are also used in music therapy.
We sampled 3 octaves of boomwhackers struck on a rubber surface. Recorded in stereo, 5 velocity layers and 5 round robins, both solo and ensemble versions (5 players).

Glad you included the naked version. I wasn’t sold on the processed version, but I really like the raw sound of these boomwhackers. I can totally hear some uses for them with my style of music. They have a lovely stereo ambience. I’ll grab them sometime soon.
Aww, sooo cool
Are you thinkin’ about releasing some future libraries in higher sound qualities, like 48 or 96kHz?
