Jazz kit played with brushes
The session drummer series was created in order to provide a quick and effective method to add realistic percussion grooves to your track. The intent will be to cover grooves which are either very hard to technically synthestrate (ex. a stirring brush pattern) or those which can sound "square" when crafted via midi or midi loops.
Each volume will contain a series of loops and a Kontakt "kit" patch. The patch itself is a faithful representation of the sound of the loops, having each ingredient carefully sampled with 8x round robin and multiple velocity layers. Seamlessly interchanging the kit with the loops the composer can provide exactly the track which suits them.
The loops provide a realistic variation to different patterns a percussionist might lay down at a session. They don´t go off on tandems, nor do they reach outside the realm of the title of the volume. They are specifically made to serve the library by playing a variation in the style described.
About this volume:
This library contains 144 loops recorded at the tempo of 116 BPM. At this tempo the brushes offer a subtle and uplifting vibe to the track * not so rigid as the sticks. You will hear this style of brushing used in a wide variety of music stretching from jazz to country (train style). Master drummers use the brushes effectively by keeping light eighth note time and sometimes switching to full out "ding-ring-a-ling" on the ride cymbal on the sticks when the energy needs to come up. "Miles Davis * All Of You" You will find this easy to accomplish if you have volume one of this series "Medium Swing Sticks." But the brushes are not just limited to jazz they can really serve a very wide variety of music.
The Kontakt Kit (requiring 2.2.4+) once again includes all the elements used to make the loops.
