The story
This is my 3rd sample library the gift
It’s an elephant shape toy xylophone made in 1985
My sister got this as a Christmas gift in 1986
Recently, I found it and wanted to do a decent sampler library
You can play it with keys or a red stick.
So I recorded 3 layers of sounds (round robins) using my zoom h6 and did some noise reduction and tuning those samples
You can chose between two groups of sounds or turn it into a dreamy pads.
Controls:
1.You have a switch to choose between the 2 groups of samples (stick/keys)
2.Group tuning and it’s the eye of the elephant and you can control it by the modulation wheel
3.Main volume
4.Attack
5.Reverb
6.Reverb size
7.Delay
8.Delay time
9. Chorus
10.Low pass filter
11.Release
Hope you enjoy it.
And let me know if you use it to make music.
Your feedback is highly appreciated.

Beautiful Sound!
Your hard work is appreciated and simply amazing!
Really pretty
I especially love tuning the keys with the elephant's eye!
Super fun
Oh now that's cool!! I remember these as a kid though I never had one. I like how you can switch it from the smoother stick to the janky keys samples. It's a bunch of fun both in melodic and also pad form. Nice work, thanks.
