01Overview

Memory Card brings the beatmaking approach of multi-instrumentalist Kaelin Ellis into XO. The pack blends neo-soul, jazz, hip-hop, dance and funk into lo-fi, chopped-up grooves that sit loosely in the pocket. Each beat is built in the XO sequencer, so you can see how the rhythms are constructed and then change them to suit your own work. It suits producers who want off-the-grid drum patterns with a head-nodding feel and a clear starting point for their own arrangements.

03In depth

Lo-Fi Grooves and Sample Content

Memory Card focuses on lo-fi, chopped-up beats with a playful, loose feel. The developer describes the sound as off-the-grid and rooted in the groove.

The expansion includes 100 presets and 151 curated one-shot samples. The presets are built from sampled material arranged in the XO sequencer, so the rhythms and sample choices are visible and easy to study.

Because every beat is fully editable, you can swap samples, change patterns or rebuild a groove from the ground up.

Workflow in the XO Sequencer

Each preset loads into XO as a complete beat, which makes the pack useful as a starting point for a track. You can adjust the step patterns and replace the one-shots to shape the groove for your own project.

The pack also works as a reference. Seeing how Kaelin Ellis arranges his samples in the sequencer gives a direct look at his approach to timing and groove.
