Producer Eddy Beneteau is back, with 5 blistering Progressive House kits, combining irrepressible groove and swing with boisterous fx and lead lines for a high energy vibe. The addition of numerous vocal hooks and melodies means this pack stands up on its own as much as it does alongside your other Producer Loops libraries.
As usual this Producer Loops library is bursting full of features. Read on to find out more!
MIDI Loops:
Over 80 MIDI loops are included across all five kits, allowing you to use the melodic phrases in this pack with your favourite synths or samplers. Play them back at any tempo or pitch without glitching as these files contain note data only.
Dry/Wet Versions:
Dry versions of most loops are provided to allow you to create your own FX mix using reverbs and delays of your choice. Or, if you prefer to just drag and drop, the wet/effected versions are ready to use as-is.

The company was founded 10 years ago, and Melodyne has been with us 10 years. 10 years in which the outstanding software has gone from an insider tip to one of the most highly valued audio tools around. Celemony is expressing its thanks with 10 of the legendary wooden boxes in which the first Melodyne was delivered. Each box contains a license for Melodyne editor, for Melodyne studio and for all Celemony software products released in the next 10 years. What that means is that everyone who gets a box will receive all the software products and updates released by Celemony until the year 2020 free of charge.
