Fairlight-CMI

If I only had to choose from the preset library I'd have to go with:

Channel 1: SymKick (Disk 8 Drums2)
Channel 2: Clap5 (Disk 11 Percusn1) 
Channel 3: Tamb2 (Disk 12 Percusn2) 
Channel 4: BassPop (Disk 6 Bass)
Channel 5: DirtClav (Disk 1 Keyboard1)
Channel 6: Sararr (Disk 22 Humans1)
Channel 7: Marimba2 (Disk 13 Mallets)
Channel 8: MBrass2 (Disk Analog)

You're going to need sounds that cover the whole sonic spectrum keeping in mind that people will also play them through the built-in speakers of the iPhone or iPad.

- SymKick: Sounds quite powerfull with enough high frequencies in the sound.
- Clap5: I like it.
- Tamb2: Can be used like a HH in C#5 or like a tambourine in a lower octave.
- BassPop: Funky bass slap sound with enough high for the little iPhone speakers
- DirtClav: A bright sound with a bite. Again, this will cut through on the little speakers.
- Sararr: It has to be in there. :-)
- Marimba2: Signature sound, will cover the percussion side of things
- MBrass2: A good allrounder, can be used over the whole keyboard range without being unusable

I'm curious to what others will suggest.
