Hello all. I am in need of some assistance. I need help identifying the un-pitched percussion in this song.

The Legend of Dragoon Extra Tracks - Queen Fury - YouTube (http://youtu.be/Xaz-RmcmJLw?t=49s)

I have little experience with percussion at the moment XD Thanks in advance!

the marimba?

I've identified the marimba :P There's some type of drum playing and I have no clue as to what it is. I suppose I should have said some type of drum instead of un-pitched percussion lol. I suppose melodic percussion/non-melodic percussion would be a much more accurate term...anyways, yeah lol. At first I thought it was Congas and a Bongo but I listened to what they sounded like on youtube and they didn't sound like that. I'm so lost!

There are all synths, but foremost are three string parts (melody, countermelody, and pizzicato) with marimba playing underneath it (which is playing the melodic percussion). The only "un-pitched" percussion is the occasional gong hit in the background. Later you've got a piano doubling the marimba.

oh :P

I don't really hear it though... is it the drum instrument on the right channel starting at 1:02? or maybe that deep percussion sound driving the whole song? perhaps it's a tabla? (i'm not too keen into percussion instruments myself haha)

You can hear the gong clearly, just as one example, at 1:07. This is what a gong sounds like (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVZdCG5J34I).

At 1:02 on the right channel, you've got strings playing the melody, a pizzicato violin sound, marimba, and a very quick stray percussion hit on a synthesized bongo. I think you might be blurring that one bongo hit together with the marimba part and thinking it's all tabla. I don't hear any table in the song.

I'm also hearing something at 1:02 on the right channel that sounds like non-melodic percussion. It's two eighth note hits on beat 4 and it occurs a few other times during that section on a different beat (3, I believe). I hear the strings, marimba, and the piano, as well as the bongo hits. But I also hear the other non-melodic percussion instrument (I'm transcribing this song as well as others from the ost, so I'm trying to things as accurate as I can :) I don't have the best headphones, though, which makes it a bit difficult...will probably update the OP as I move on to other songs and more confusion brews lol. Back to the mystery!).

haha I know what a gong is but this song's mixing is muddy so it's pretty hard to hear everything clearly.
