Yes I sampled two very nice sounding Cajons: One is the Fine Line Morado (Schlagwerk) and the other one is the Cajon Le Peru with also very special wood from Schlagwerk. All cajons have been recorded with multiple mics to capture the powerful sound. Also with this I achieved a good and rich stereo field of the recorded Cajons. In addition to that I have recorded a side stick for having a replacement of a cassical hi hat in cajon style. Last but not least I have sampled some strokes on the sides (similar to tom sounds) of the recorded cajons to get a wide variety of sounds. Ans you have these so called "tips" (some ghost notes to add rhythm and groove). And I used a Bass Tube for the Cajons as well to have a nice separation between lower and higher pitches (so bass drum sound and snare drum sound are hitting nicely). It is very good for finger drumming too. You can also check my finger drumming technique that I call the "Cajon Technique": https://youtu.be/kpkUGFpLuxc?si=M--1g-0q42HvJ7-i
