With its plastic beige enclosure design, the Korg KR-55 looks like a late 70s' nerd wet dream. Every single sound from this 1979 preset drum machine is just perfect : snappy snare, punchy bass drum, electronic hi hats and exotic percussions with a retro flavour.
Heavily used by early electro bands, its raw sound just fit in any mix and any genre.

This sample pack offers 7 kits, from clean and transparent to punchy and saturated. You will also find some spring reverb and analogue delay infused samples for even more vintage flavor.

Chart Hits offers 10 extensive construction kits including a total of 510 loops. Just like in recent US major productions, Euro-sounds are mixed with elements of black music to melt into real pop-music-anthems. These sounds create a dense grooving backing-track that, unlike instrumental club music, will leave enough space to fit vocals and lead instruments.

Each construction kit contains a demonstrative full-mix plus individual tracks of in the charts lead synthesizers, pad sounds, acoustic and electric guitars, electric and synthetic basses and effect sounds. In addition, you'll find all drum kits as full-mixes as well as single tracks for kick, snare, hihat, cymbals and percussions.
