It is commonly found throughout the Balkan states and in 1890 it was proclaimed the national instrument of Hungary.

The instrument sampled for this library is a chromatic Schunda model from Budapest.

The Universal Format version contains two fully sampled versions – a close-miked soft version with pronounced hits from the spoon-shaped felt hammers and a bright version that reveals the brilliance of the instrument.

Both versions are based on chromatic multi-sample sets with velocity layers recorded stereo from top with adjustable mono signal from the bottom.
