Best Tambourine in Logic Instruments

Can anyone recommend the best Drum kit / note for a Tambourine in Logic's instruments?

I want a single quarter note shake, not a roll.
Also if the skin head is hit or not dose not matter as long as a get those jingles.

Hopefully (for CPU sake) you could recommend which note from

10 Orchestra>3 Percussion>Percussion Kit,

But if you can't that's ok. I really couldn't find one there (by ear only) myself.

The note (A4 [roland standard]) the file (made a decade ago pointing to a tambourine on a Kurzweil PC88mx>62 Orchestra Kit) points to, in Logic, sounds like a sleigh bell! Not appropriate here!

Thanks so much

Sorry, would have posted earlier but have kept having inconsistent login problems here lately.

I just opened up a finder window on my Logic content, typed "tamb" and did a filename search, then used quicklook to quickly browse down and audition the sample matches to find the ones I liked...

Then you can do whatever you want with that sample...

How do I get to (and only to) the logic content folder? (what is the path way; assuming I haven't (which I haven't) messed with it since a good installation of logic.)

If I search the hard drive, I'm getting lots of Apples Loops tambourines, but not Logic Instruments containing tambourine.

For me it's easy as all my Logic sample content is in one place. For you, on a standard installation of Logic, you'll need to look in /Library/Application Support/Logic/ and also /Library/Application Support/Garageband/Instrument Library/Sampler/Sampler Files/

Apple Loops are not in those directories. If you want to do a wider search, then you can add a "filetype is not CAF" search criteria. Remember that system wide searches by default do not include system directories, which most of the Logic content is placed by default - that is why you have to go to those system directories in the finder and start the search there, to include those locations.
