03In depth

Basses, Drones and Textures in the Sound Set

The core of the pack is its bass content, with 28 basses that make up the largest group of patches. Beat also includes 5 drones and 7 pads and textures, which give producers material for background layers and atmospheric beds.

The developer says the patches include massive basses as well as super-wide supersaws and spherical textures. Because the content is sample-based, the sounds are meant to be played and shaped inside Zampler rather than used as static audio files.

Leads, Arps and Loops for Dark Electronic Tracks

Beat includes 30 leads and arpeggios, a group that suits sequence-driven music. The 26 loops and stems give a quick starting point for building a full arrangement, and together they run to 38 minutes of material.

The pack is aimed at dark electronic styles, and the developer names raw techno, trance and IDM as its target genres. Producers working in those styles can use the loops as a draft or pull individual stems into their own projects.
