'Breaking Beats' by Ueberschall is part of the Multitrack Drum Loop Series by the label. Providing an inspiring collection of funky, syncopated, grooves, This library is filled with infectious rhythms while the brilliant performances are full of dynamic twists and turns to keep your audience's attention.
Super-Funky, Super-Cool, Infectious Drum Grooves
The library contains more than 2800 individual loops in 12 main folders. Each folder features multiple performance parts and variations making it easy to build a complete drum performance. The loops are provided into two separate Elastik soundbanks, one containing loops of full drum mixes and one containing all the multitrack loops from the same performances.
Choice Of Pre-Mixed Or Multitrack Loops
The drum mix soundbank features two different mixes – 'vintage' and 'modern' - of each drum performance. The vintage mix provides a rawer sound built with just a touch of compression and limiting. The modern mix enhances the low and high ends as well as adding some high-end reverb. In total, this soundbank delivers over 440 loops across 12 Construction Kits.
The multitrack soundbank contains all the multitrack loops for the same performances. Within each folder, an unprocessed drum mix is provided alongside the separate loops for each mic used during the recording process. These include both inside and outside kick drum mics, snare top and bottom, a hi-hat mic, multiple tom and cymbal mics, while overhead and room mic recordings can be used to add natural ambience.
High-End Recording Matched By Top-Quality Playing
Whether you want the instant solution offered by the pre-mixed loops, or the option to craft your own personalised drum mix, the Multitrack Drum Loop Series has you covered. Stylistically, while most certainly dance-friendly, 'Breaking Beats' brilliantly defies classification. However, just think super-funky and super-cool and then let this pack spark your musical imagination.
Multitrack Drum Loop Series
Designed to inspire, the Multitrack Drum Loop Series combines the workflow advantages of loops with the mix control offered by full, multitracked, drum recordings. Drum and cymbal combinations were selected to match each music style, while top-end preamps and microphones – including matched pairs where required – were used alongside analogue compressors and limiters throughout the recording process. Special attention was paid to drum tuning, while some recordings feature distinctive and characterful high or low tuned shells/drum heads. Rare high-quality cymbals and an arsenal of different sticks and mallets were also used.
All the drum performances within this series were played by the exceptional drummer Matthias 'Maze' Meusel. Maze's credit list spans recording and live duties with chart-topping artists, TV and theatre work, and tours in over 30 countries worldwide. Maze is a master of every genre. Whether it's vintage grooves or complex modern beats, he likes to experiment with timings, accents, tunings and unusual sticks and mallets. The results are always unique and always inspiring.
The titles within the Multitrack Drum Loop Series offer loops that cannot be found anywhere else. The quality is always high and, thanks to the advanced time-stretch algorithms built directly into Elastik, users can mic and match across all the loops. The drums can also be detuned using Elastik's powerful pitch-shifting functions with ReTune allowing you to tune your drum performances to your song key and scale if required. With the sophisticated sound design options provide by Elastik, these acoustic drums can also be transformed to suit Electronic styles, but always retaining the detailed expression provided by a world-class drummer.
