Bass Marimba Samples?

Anyone know of good Bass Marimba samples as played with a beater, a la ' The Drums of Amampondo '?

I think I can only play them back in Rex/Rex 2 format via Stylus RMX or as AIFF's or SDII's via Plugsound Pro.

Thanks

Don't know how it sounds but I remember AKAI S-20, S-900, S-1000, S-2000, S-3000 disks had a bass marimba in there.

Thanks, but can't find them in the formats I quoted.

bass marimba with a beater? That's very direct, I don't think you will find that. Virtual Drumline has bass marimba, but it's not in the format you want. If you really really need it, go to a high school and ask to record their marimba with a beater.

...mmm. Marimba being struck with a beater - didn't realise that was so unusual.

Thanks aafarr2, but your suggestion ain't very practical given my original question. In fact I think it's the equivalent of RTFM!
