Beats That Come to LifeĪll 100 vintage machines have been meticulously recorded with round robin samples to capture the real feeling of these boxes and not just snapshot glimpses of them. And finally, add up to 5 more effects on the master buss. Using SampleTank 4’s Multi Mode, each kit element has its own 5-slot effects section so that kicks, snares, toms, hi-hat, cymbals and percussion can be processed separately before using the sends and returns for kit reverbs and even buss compression. Start with a Roland® TR-808 kick drum, add a snare from the Maestro Rhythm King, toms from the Simmons® SDS-V, hi-hats from the Elka Wilgamat, and so on. This enables users to take advantage of SampleTank 4’s Multi Mode to combine up to 16 different elements from this collection and others. In addition to the main presets, there are hundreds of additional “single element” presets that represent each kit piece. This extends the sound of every original machine, making this collection of vibey percussion a must-have for any fan nostalgic for those bygone sounds. To give classic beats that extra punch, the presets for each individual machine also include the full General MIDI set of vintage electronic percussion sounds constructed from across the full library of hardware instruments. The GM mapping is also consistent with the other drum kits available for SampleTank 4, so users can mix and match kit components or even layer entire kits. Over 200 kit presets are mapped to the General MIDI drum mapping standard so they can be dropped into any DAW session, putting these classic sounds instantly to work. From the earliest Ace Tone machines to the iconic, essential TR-808 and -909, plus esoteric novelties, far-out drum synths and even modern designs, this anthology is packed with endless inspiration, each carefully studied to capture its most recognizable sounds.
