Beat Box Anthology<br />
Classic drum machine sounds and loops from the 70s, 80s and early 90s<br />
Beat Box Anthology is the one-stop shopping collection for drum machine sounds<br />
and loops, covering almost every generation of these instruments. Even if these cult<br />
machines were a milestone in the 70s, 80s and 90s music production, their sounds<br />
are still used today in a lot of Urban, Hip Hop, Electro House and even Electro Pop<br />
productions.<br />
The first "affordable" drum machines were manufactured in the 60s, and were<br />
designed to imitate the sounds of drums and percussions. Analog synthesis was the<br />
the first technology used to generate the drum sounds and most models left no<br />
opportunity to the user to alter or modify the pre-programmed rhythms. Then in the<br />
80s the first models using low resolution digital samples were launched, and were<br />
quickly used in the most successful tunes in the music industry. In the 90s the sound<br />
quality turned better, but loosing in the meantime the character that had made older<br />
models so remarkable. That's where and why our investigation stopped.<br />
Beat Box Anthology is divided in three sections: Classics, Analog & Digital. In the<br />
Classics category you will find the cult machines that are still used a lot today, like the<br />
808 or the 909. Sampling and recording was particularly complete, covering every<br />
parameter and setting you can find on these machines. To capture the essence of<br />
these pieces of history, we did record everything in 24bit 96kHz, using the best DI<br />
Box and analog to digital converters.<br />
Another unique approach to this kind of collection, is the mastering step that once<br />
more makes it unique. Sounds were mastered at Sterling Sound with Chris<br />
Gerhinger, for this punchy sound you won't find anywhere else.<br />
With a total of around 10 000 samples and loops, Beat Box Anthology also contains<br />
hundreds of native kits and patterns for the new MOTU BPM, then being its best<br />
companion. Whatever the kind of music you're making, you will certainly find room for<br />
these incredible sounding machines.<br />
