The Grey Bell is a Cuban campana (cowbell) from Havana, for son, timba and folkloric music.

I bought it in Havana in 1997 when our bongo player didn’t have one. If I remember right, it came from the cousin of the great multi-instrumentalist Emilio Vega.

Needs the full version of Kontakt. It likely won’t work in the free Kontakt Player, so I recommend the Decent Sampler version; it uses the same samples.
