Product Description The DEVINE Loop Expansion pack features 128 Glitch Hop and Breaks loops by sound design legend, RICHARD DEVINE. At a tempo of 120BPM, these loops are just what you need to craft funky breaks and glitch hop beats, but can be used at a variety of tempos. The expansion features 128 hand-crafted ULTRALOOP snapshots to instantly get you started generating new grooves, variations and song ideas. With the ULTRALOOP expansion bank, 128 loops become hundreds more in no-time. In Richard Devine’s words: “I used only physical modeling and analog synthesis to create the sounds which were from a collection of drum machines and synths here at my studio. I primarily designed the loops to use in my live show with my modular. I wanted to create a fun collection of loops that would blend in well with my modular patches, and this worked out best for that in that everything is synthesized.” ! ! ! !
