A Mix of Electronic and Organic Sounds
Featuring 3.5GB of sample data and 751 individual loops, the ten design kits contain three or four musical sections. The tempos focus on the dance range of 110 to 134 BPM. Individual loops are up to 32 seconds long. Thus, each of the design kits offers a variety of performance options, making it easy to create full-fledged tracks.
Authentic Latin flavors

Electronic elements include kick drums, snare drums, rims, hi-hats, claps and cymbals, while acoustic elements include congas, agogo, triangle, clave, timba, surdo, cowbell, timbales, shaker, guiro and tambourine. Pre-mixed ready-to-use drum loops as well as single-track loops for each individual element, allowing you to customize your own drum and percussion mix. The bass lines are a combination of a catchy electric and fat synth bass. The rest of the instrumentation comes from synths, pads, arpeggios, electric and acoustic pianos, electric and acoustic guitars, trumpets, saxophones, kalimba and marimba. Sound effects and lift/transition effects are also included.
