While we wait for something that Toontrak is never going to do, Muletone Software out of Brazil makes some libraries that run in Kontakt 8. They sound FABULOUS, including the metal and wood Surdos, Berimbau, caixa, Repinique, etc etc. Grooves and one-shots. Not all of the Rhythms mentioned in this thread are included, but what is there is authentic, well-recorded, by musicians born and raised in Brazil. I can’t recommend this world-class resource highly enough!

Man, I SO wish ToonTracks thought there’d be a market for this. The instruments are of crucial importance to me, but if I could also have grooves such as jazz samba (uptempo, like Nando Lauria has used), Partido Alto, and Meracatu, I’d be so stoked!
