Bras Kora Drum

Bras Kora Drum


Fusion of Tradition and Innovation

The Kora Drum is a custom instrument made by instrument maker, Nicholas Bras. Inspired by a Kora and a Kamele N'goni, two harp-lutes from West Africa, Bras replaced the calabash and goat skin used on the original with a body made from a tom drum, and 12 nylon strings.

The sound of this library is truly unique - clearly earning the moniker “harp-lute.” The timbre of the instrument from the resonance of the drum creates a very interesting sound that only Nicolas Bras could create. The Soundpaint engine also makes the Kora Drum chromatic and extends the the natural range to your controller creating deep resonant plucks in the bass register and glittery plucks in the high register. Enjoy 6 different instrument Parts with regular plucks, muted plucks, and four different tremolos.
