Description: Jazz Works brings the authentic sound and live feeling of a top-notch jazz band to the pinnacle of performance. Musical styles reflect both traditional and modern jazz moods, with contagious drum beats, melodic bass grooves, cool sequenced chords and cool solos that can easily transition into RnB, Hip-Hop, Soul, Chillout, Lounge or House and other electronic genres … Jazz Works has a lot to inspire when you need to add a jazz element to your own pieces. The Jazz Works series includes acoustic and electric pianos, bass guitar, jazz guitar, baritone and tenor saxophone, flute, flugelhorn and trumpet – pure and authentic jazz ready for your ideas.
The library for Elastik, consisting of 10 massive constructors and over 7 GB of samples, contains over 1200 loops and phrases. Each set offers a collection of advanced drums, bass and instruments (backgrounds), as well as several solo instruments. The performances feature extended 16- or 32-bar phrases for an authentic live experience. Elastik’s powerful sample toolset makes it easy to create shorter or longer loops and change the tempo, pitch, key or scale to suit your musical project. The material was recorded with top class microphones and an A / D converter and was no longer edited. 100% dynamics – no compression.
In addition to pre-mixed drum loops, each set also includes a combination of individual loops. These include kick drum (inside and outside), snare drum (top and bottom), hi-hat, cymbals, toms, overheads and room, making it easy to create the perfect drum mix for your project. Up to four different Phrase / Performance options are available for the Konrabass, with pre-mixed mic options. The songs represent the main chord progression on an acoustic and electric piano and electric guitar. Each kit includes 3 or 4 variations of each instrument for a total duration of up to 2 minutes, which allows the user to flexibly create arrangements for the length of the song. A PDF file is included that details all used chord sequences. All kits also have a combination of several solo instruments. Several options are available for each tool for maximum flexibility.
Jazz Works is ideal for those looking to create an authentic live ensemble sound from a list of the best jazz compositions. However, Elastik’s powerful toolbox and thoughtful sound in a flexible format make Jazz Works the perfect choice for songwriters, music producers or composers looking to bring jazz influence to their music projects, regardless of genre.
The Jazz Works series features an incredibly talented music team made up of newcomers and a number of permanent Ueberschall members. The line-up includes Eike Wolfmeier on piano (who helped launch the project), Jurgen Attig on bass (who previously played on our Electric Bass and other libraries), Matthias Meusel on drums (who previously supplied all drums for the Drum Loop Series) , Kai Reiter on electric guitar (who played our Electric Guitar Moods and others), Gary Winters on trumpet and flugelhorn (who recently played in our Trumpet Solos library), Nico Finke on baritone saxophone (who played in Saxophone 2 library) and Niels Brederlow is a tenor saxophone and flute (also an expert at coordinating remote recording sessions for live performances). The whole group showcases virtuoso performances full of feelings, emotions and self-expression, so we can bring you world-class jazz in the format of a sample library.
The Elastik player can adapt all loops to your own song project in tempo, scale and pitch, while maintaining the highest sound quality. An intuitive browser manages all Elastik libraries for immediate access to all samples. Thus, hinges not only from Jazz Works, but also from all installed Elastik libraries can be combined with each other. Functions such as resample, formant and reverse, as well as an efficient multi-mode filter, can easily modify both samples and phrases.
