    This is why one should have Battery. It comes with just about any percussion sound one would want. And there are many free and add on sounds on the net.

    BDF2 comes with extra percussion too.  Not to the degree that Battery has but very nice really.

    Hmmm...I have heard of this Battery, but have not experienced it...I haven't researched it. Is it expensive? I am kinda tight on cash at the moment...

    NI battery 3 is a Native Instruments drum sample player and sampler.

    Its the one thats been around the longest and has the most samples for it.

    Actually, Toontrack does have an expansion pack called Latin Percussion EZX, which has the instruments you're looking for. Remember that all EZX packs will work with Superior even though they're made for EZdrummer.

    If it's going to be mixed in the background, TTS / GM drum kit got most of these too.

    I seem to recall that Dimension Pro has some reasonable Latin percussion...

    I've just bought the Toontrack Latin Percussion EZX.  Sweetwater have a half price sale on EZX at the moment.
     
    Not had much chance to use it yet, but I'm liking it so far.
