ModernBeats Introduces New Hip Hop Brass Library
May 23, 2005
ModernBeats.com debuts it's first Brass themed sound library for software
samplers entitled "Brass Elementz 1" covering today's Urban, Hip Hop, and
Crunk musical genres.
Brass Elementz 1 contains 400 brass stabs, chords, and riffs across 26
multi-format sampler presets representing the latest trends in Hip Hop
production. The set is organized into 2 main sub-categories titled "Brass
Chordz-n-Riffz" and "Brass Instruments":
The Brass Chordz-n-Riffz presets are arranged for ease of use and grouped
according to pitch, key, and duration. Certain longer chord riffs include
corresponding shorter samples on adjacent keys giving users more control over
creativity. Additionally, as users play higher up each preset layout, chords
naturally migrate into higher key groupings.
The Brass Instrument presets contain matching instrument layouts and are
categorized according to their timbre: Normal (Smooth), Classic (Moderate
Overdrive), and Xtreme (Hard Overdrive) versions. The arrangement offers users a
large array of textures to choose from while also allowing for seamless swapping
between instruments within a sequence.
The soundset is sold as a multi-format product for all major software samplers.
Native formats include HALion, EXS24, Kontakt, Battery, Reason's NN-XT, SF2,
and Wav.
"Brass Elementz 1 - Stabz, Chordz, & Riffz" is available as a download for
$29.95, or can be ordered on CD-ROM.
