03In depth

Trance drum grooves built around momentum

XLN Audio describes trance as built on sustained motion, with energy that rises slowly, holds steady and releases without breaking momentum. The presets reflect that approach. The kicks are deep and controlled to provide constant drive, while rolling rhythmic layers and tightly shaped tops add movement without cluttering the mix.

The presets are mix-ready, so you can use them as they are or refine them. Within the XO sequencer you can change how the groove develops over time, which helps when you need variation across a long arrangement.

Editable sequences and included samples

The expansion includes 75 trance presets, all editable in the XO sequencer, and more than 150 genre-specific samples. XLN Audio also notes that XO's engine provides infinite variations on each groove.

Because the patterns are fully editable sequences, you can see how each beat is put together and change individual elements. The 1-shot samples are curated for the genre, so you can build your own patterns with sounds suited to trance.
