01Overview

Rytmik Beats brings together roughly 288 audio loops in six Kontakt instances, each covering a different theme such as main theme beats, chasing beats, production beats, scoring beats and textures. The loops are drawn from the larger Rytmik beat library and resampled as WAV files, so they share a consistent sound. Each patch spreads its 48 loops across four octaves, letting you audition and layer beats quickly. The library suits film and cue scoring, electro, hip-hop and industrial productions that need rhythmic inspiration.

03In depth

Beat Selection and Sound Character

The loops focus on massive, layered percussion. Cinematique Instruments selected many of the beats for their roaring sound, which results from stacking multiple drum sounds, so many of them work as ensemble beats. Urban and unique loops are included for chase cues or ghost beats in music productions, and long FX loops offer wide, deep textures.

Each loop is tempo-synced to your host using a real-time, high-quality time-stretching algorithm that keeps the playback independent from the original tempo.

Minimal Controls and Workflow

The interface is intentionally minimal, with three shaping tools per patch: a filter, a distortion switch and reverb. Each patch also offers eight selected reverb types. The limited control set keeps the focus on auditioning loops and finding a fit for your track rather than tweaking parameters.

Because all six patches are designed to fit together, you can play loops from several instances at once and keep them in sync.
