Tabby Dance is built for producers making dance music. Sound designer Christian Laffitte gathered 100 presets spanning basses, keys, pads, arpeggios, plucks, kicks and snares. The sounds draw on styles from the 1980s through the 21st century, including big room, techno, progressive and future house, electro, PSY trance, futurepop, dub and trap.

Sounds and Styles in the Tabby Dance EDM Preset Collection

The bank covers a broad range of electronic dance music. Applied Acoustics Systems positions it as a set of EDM staples alongside original sounds, so it can serve as a starting point for both classic and modern genre work.

The sound types are the core of the pack: basses, keys, pads, arpeggios, plucks, kicks and snares. That mix lets you build a full arrangement from one source, from low-end foundations to rhythmic and melodic layers.

Macro Control for Automation in Ultra-Analog VA-3 Presets

Each sound includes macros, which Applied Acoustics Systems describes as a way to give producers full control over automation. Automation is central to dance music, so macros that group the important parameters of a sound can make movement across a track easier to program.

The developer says the pack is meant to cover the whole production chain, from the first kick to the final automation pass.
