At the press of a key, Latigo unleashes a firework of burning Latin American percussion rhythms including drums.Latigo uses no loops or samples - these are real performances played by Edwin Bonilla and Olbin Burgos of the Miami Sound Machine, produced by songwriter and producer Clay Ostwald.
The underlying Wizoo FlexGroove engine adds full real-time control over arrangement, performance, sound and integrated surround ambience. Take a seat in the producer's chair and virtually hire the best Latin drummer and percussionists in the world. Patterns, Fills, Variations and Mutes can be freely tweaked and played by MIDI keys. No boring loops - musical performances of the highest standard.
The professional sound quality of Latigo can be tweaked to any kind of musical style: The integrated mixer allows EQ, punch and ambience adjustment for each instrument independently. Instruments can be freely placed in a surround stage; the built-in surround ambience unit offers 15 adjustable rooms.
