Summary

All in all the sample pack offers a nice allround supply with fresh sample material, although we would’ve liked MIDI files for the attached bass-, synth- and chordloops next to one shots of the samples used for the loops. Nevertheless, overall sound quality is top-notch, very punchy and professionally engineered. Most importantly, the caterogy fits each construction kit well and is quite characteristic for that genre.
