Classic Jazz Straight From The Jazz Club

'Jazz Works Vol 2' is perfect for those wanting access to the sounds heard in a traditional Jazz Club and played by a top-class ensemble of musicians. It's a perfect complement for the other volumes within the 'Jazz Works' series. Ideal for songwriters, music producers, or media composers looking to add totally authentic traditional tunes into their musical projects, whatever the genre.

Add A Traditional Jazz Influence Within Your Own Projects

The library is organized into 10 massive construction kits, with over 1300 loops and phrases making nearly 7GB of sample content. Each of the construction kits offers collections of extended drum, bass and comping instruments (backings) plus multiple solo instruments. Kit tempos range between 130 and 250 BPM. Performances feature extended 16 or 32 bar phrases for a genuine live feel. Elastik's powerful sample manipulation toolset allows you to easily create shorter or longer loops, change tempo, pitch, key or scale, as your musical project requires. The material has been recorded with top-class microphones and AD/DA converters and was not edited any further. 100% dynamics - no compression.

Extended Performance Options In A Powerful Construction Kit Format

Within each construction kit, alongside the pre-mixed drum loops, some combination of individual loops are also provided. These include kick (inside and out mic), snare (top and bottom mic), hi-hat, cymbals toms, overheads and room, allowing for full control over the drum mix for your project. For the upright bass, a minimum of three different phrase/performance options are provided, with premixed, microphone and piezo recordings available in each case. The comping performances provide the core chord sequence on acoustic piano, electric piano and electric guitar. 

Each kit includes a minimum of three variations of each instrument allowing the user flexibility in building a song-length arrangement. A PDF is included with full chord lead sheets for all the construction kits. All of the kits also provide a combination of multiple solo instruments. Up to 44 different solo parts are included within each kit. Throughout, the sound is pristine, authentic and presented without compression. This direct, dynamic, sound gives you full control over your mix decisions.
