Sound Content and Organization

The pack is built around a large set of drum and bass material. It includes 96 drum loop elements and 17 full drum loops, alongside 27 bass loops. On the one-shot side, there are 22 kick one-shots, 40 snare and clap one-shots, 18 hi-hat one-shots, 23 percussion and tom one-shots, and 24 cymbal and FX one-shots.

Melodic material is also well covered, with 78 melodic loop elements, 17 full melodic loops and 102 melodic one-shots. The pack adds 12 vocal and FX loops and 9 vox one-shots for texture.

Niche Audio says the samples were sourced and crafted rather than made from VST presets, and it describes the sound as organic and vinyl-influenced.

Workflow with Maschine and Other DAWs

Dub Clash is made for Maschine. Because the 17 kits share a consistent structure, you can switch kits and samples quickly while keeping your arrangement intact.

The loops and one-shots are also included in a ZIP format. That makes them usable outside Maschine, in any studio setup or DAW, for producers who want the raw audio.

Niche Audio notes that the material can also be used in hip-hop, downtempo, cinematic, ambient, house and techno productions, beyond its dub and reggae focus.
