50s Jazz Guitar Trio delivers the classic sound of a compact guitar-led jazz band. While the instruments are recorded to the highest standards, the warm and intimate tones of both the acoustic and electric guitars are a perfect match for the library's 50s-inspired jazz tunes. With smooth moods throughout, and that inimitable sense of top-class musicians locked into the groove, 50s Jazz Guitar Trio is the real deal.
The library contains 5 substantial construction kits and nearly 2GB of sample material. Original tempos range from 120 to 160 BPM. A range of time signatures – 4/4, 5/4 and 3/4 - are also present but, whatever the tempo or time base, these tunes swing beautifully.
There are 531 loops and phrases in total. Each of the construction kits offers three or four distinct musical parts, as well as both intro and outro sections. Instruments consist of acoustic drums, electric bass and both acoustic and electric guitars. Alongside pre-mixed drum loops, each construction kit includes individual drum loops for kick, snare (top and bottom), hihat, tom, ride, overhead and room mics allowing you to craft the perfect drum mix for your project. With guitar leading the way, each song section includes both rhythm and lead line guitar performances. Mic and line recordings are included for most of the performances. All bass phrases are also present as both amp and line versions. This combination of features within each construction kit make it both easy to construct full song-length arrangements and to ensure that you have the maximum flexibility to control every aspect of you mix. In addition, Elastik 3's powerful processing options, including tempo manipulation and ReTune, make it possible to fine-tune individual loops and to sit seamlessly within your overall project.
50s Jazz Guitar Trio is a perfect complement to our other jazz-based titles including the Jazz Works series. Whether for songwriters, music producers or media composers, 50s Jazz Guitar Trio provides an inspiring starting point for creating a jazz groove with a sophisticated, warm, guitar-led vibe.
