[blush] thank you very much. If I do say so myself, I am very happy with
these samples. They really are "my sound". As a vibes player, things like
the weight and density of the mallets, the speed of the rotor, attack of the
mallet,etc really personalize a sound. Because when you think about it,
there's no traditional form of "articulation" on a vibraphone. No
"ombechure" (sp?) or "fingering" to help establish a unique sound.

(Traditional) vibraphones are only three ovtaves. They don't normally go
down below F. I assume you are referring to  notes lower than that low F. My
samples start at the C above that. Tell you what, next time I have my vibes
at home, I'll sample that last half octave. But I'm not sure when that will
be.
