Do you have the 'Orkestra' for Reason? - i think it comes with it and has some very usable sounds in.

hmm i have reason 4,ill check it out.any way to get the sample out of reason.dont want to rewire if i dont have to

What i'd do normally is put the sounds one by one with a gap after each in a few bars and then render that too audio... then chop up in a DAW of choice

GPO orchestra is very good for these samples.

I'm currently cutting them out of live performances and Chinese cinema. If i come up with any gold i will be sure to let you know.

banquo

they're called 'timpani'.

not to be a pedant here, but bass drums and timpani are not the same thing. Orchestral bass drums are stood on their side and timpani are those brass 'kettle' drums.

well im wasnt too sure what they were called.to me they looked like a big bass drum so thats what i called them.:o

i found the sound i was after and it was labeled timpani so i guess thats what it was.
