Band in a Box has literally hundreds of latin percussion and drums Real Tracks. These are not midi, they're studio recordings using world class players of phrases from two bars to 6 bars long. This is a demo page using the 2019 latest ones by Alex Acuna and Ramone Stagnaro:

 

Band in a Box 2019 Real Tracks

 

Scroll down a bit until you see Real Tracks Set 302 A Taste of Brazil. If you want to hear more examples they've been producing Salsa, Songo, Samba, Bossa and more latin RT's for the last 6 or 7 years. Just search the site for more demos.

 

I'm not doing a sales job for Biab I'll just say it can do way more than most people think.

Hammond SK1, Mojo 61, Kurzweil PC3, Korg Pa3x, Roland FA06, Band in a Box, Real Band, Studio One, too much stuff...

Have you looked at YouTube?

 

On a lark one time, when I was away from my trusty 80's vintage Yamaha RX-15, I searched YouTube for a drum beat (I think I simply searched on "Latin"), and I was able to plug my phone earphone output into a mixer input channel and use it as a "pseudo drum machine".
