Description: Club classic.
In the 80s, R&B had a peculiar sound. It is still based on the funk, soul and disco styles of the 1970s, but as synthesizers and drum machines have played an increasingly important role, the genre has taken on a new musical character. Our 80s R&B sample library for Elastik perfectly captures this sound from before hip-hop was added to the R&B melting pot.
With super-smooth grooves, punchy synth basslines and catchy synth lead hooks, the library delivers authentic 80s R&B and pop sounds in an easy-to-use format.
80s R&B consists of 10 complex sets. It contains over 800 loops and samples with over 3 GB of data. Each set includes three musical sections for easy song arranging and building. In addition, within each music section, individual instrument loops include synth basses, pads, synth solos, electric pianos, clavinets, strings, vocoders, and a range of sound effects and other musical candy. 80s analog drum sounds include individual loops of snare, kick, hi-hat, cymbals, toms and claps. A number of percussion loops are also provided. A pre-mixed drum loop is also provided for each piece of music, as well as individual drum samples. You have everything you need to create the perfect mix for your project. Recording raw tempos range from 98 to 124 beats per minute, but Elastik’s high-quality tempo-matching tools provide a lot of control if higher or slower tempos are required.
The performances and instruments have been carefully crafted to anchor this collection of samples firmly in the 1980s. Whether you’re looking to create a retro song project for your own vocals, or need to capture the sound and style of the era for music-in-picture transitions, 80s R&B has all the sounds and smooth melodies you’ll need.
Elastik is the perfect tool for creating music based on loops. The ReTune algorithm gives you complete control over the pitch of any 80s R&B tone loop, polyphonic or monophonic. Elastik offers complete control over the qualitative change in time and pitch. Additional parameters can be configured on a slice-by-slice basis, including pitch shift, volume and pan, reverse, formant, filter, and resampling. The innovative Inspire feature lets you create new song ideas on the fly.
