Acoustic Lounge delivers a massive 24 construction kits of smooth, soulful, tunes that will always strike a sophisticated, laid-back, mood. The library is build on the classic sounds of late night jazz, dominated by the unplugged sounds of delicate drum grooves and beautiful upright bass lines complemented by tasteful acoustic pianos and guitars. The kits are further flavoured by highlight electric pianos and guitars, percussion elements, vibraphones, some special effects and the occasional atmospheric saxophone and trumpet round out the contents of the kits. The moods are always easy and the sound – 100% analogue – is always classy and warm.
The recording chain was fully analogue. This included classic vintage studio equipment with everything recorded to tape. The result is a beautiful, warm, sound that brings the very best out of every instrument.
Each construction kit also features full drum kit recordings and, within each of the multiple musical sections provided for each construction kit, both pre-mixed stereo loops plus individually mic'ed loops for kick, snarebot, snaretop, trigger, hihat, tom, overheads, room and cymbals are supplied. With the mixing options provided within Elastik, you can create just the drum mix that you need.
The library offers 24 construction kits in total with eight kits per tempo (70, 80 and 90 BPM). Each kit contains four or five parts, including intro and outro. Not all loops are used in the mix of each part making quick variations possible. A dry version is also available for most loops that are used with effects.
Acoustic Lounge is ideal for busy media composers looking to create an easy listening lounge mood but wanting the very best is both performance and sound.
