Sway MPC Edition is a preset expansion pack from Native Instruments for MPC, containing 100 mellow, melodic presets built from pianos, guitars, synths and bells treated with analog gear.
Sway MPC Edition is aimed at producers who want laid-back, melodic textures inside MPC. The presets draw on pianos, guitars, synths and bells, each processed for a grainy, filtered character. Editable sequences and macro controls let you reshape a sound quickly, while the customizable effects chain gives room for more detailed sound design. The pack runs in MPC software or on standalone MPC hardware.
The presets are built on samples of pianos, guitars, synths and bells. Native Instruments says these sources were heavily treated with original analog gear, which gives the sounds a grainy, filtered quality.
The result is a mellow, melodic palette. It suits producers who want instrumental color under drums and samples without bright, hard-edged leads.
Each preset includes macro controls, so a few knobs can change the overall character of a sound. Editable sequences give you a starting point for melodic patterns that you can adjust to fit your arrangement.
The customizable effects chain lets you rework the processing on each preset. This is useful when you want to push a sound further from the original or match it to the rest of a track.
