Loops de la Crème have released Magic Hi-Hats, available at the intro price of €32.00, increasing to €64.00 after the promotion. The offer ends December 20th.
With 4 hi-hats sampled using 4 microphone perspectives, an extended range of articulations, and ‘magic’ automatic functions, Magic Hi-Hats is the ultimate hi-hat library!
The library features four very different hi-hats, each with its own sound and character. Each hi-hat instrument features the same keyboard mapping, an easy-to-use sequencer, and 12 tempo-synced hi-hat grooves with mod wheel variations.
- ZILDJIAN K CUSTOM – A crip and powerful hi-hat, with a very balanced sound and a versatility that makes it perfect for rock, pop, metal, and funk.
- PAISTE 1000 – A bright and focused pair of Hi-hats from the late 80s. Great for rapid phrases, and perfect for disco, pop and modern RnB and electronic music.
- ISTANBUL AGOP SIGNATURE – An amazing pair of hand-made cymbals from the signature line of Istanbul. Very expressive and articulate, this hi-hat will fit wonderfully in jazz, funk, or fusion tracks.
- MEINL BYZANCE THIN JAZZ – A very thin pair of hi-hats, with a sweet, mellow, and warm sound. Excellent for jazz, blues, world music, and softer pop and folk music.
The built-in mixer lets you choose the volume and panning of four very different microphone perspectives: you will find it quick and intuitive to perfectly fit the hi-hats with any of your own drum library!
All instruments feature 12 tempo-synced built-in grooves to create highly realistic and lively hi-hat parts. Each hi-hat comes in a 4/4 metric and an alternative 6/8 metric.
Use your modulation wheel to perform live groove variations, fills, and repetitions on the spot!
The included easy-to-use sequencer is a powerful tool to quickly create and perform authentic hi-hats rhythms: Program a 16-steps pattern with various velocities, press and hold one or several keys, et voilà: instant realistic hi-hat action!
The sequencer is based on a simple arpeggiator engine. When activated, pressing and holding any key will start the programmed sequence. If several keys are pressed, the sequencer will randomly alternate between these keys: this works very well with the magic keys to create subtle variations typical of expressive hi-hat parts.
The GUI offers a small selection of powerful controls ready to completely change the sound of the hi-hats!
Features include:
- Choose between four premium hi-hats, each with its own sound and character.
- Easily integrate the hi-hats with any drum library with the 4 microphone perspectives
- Use the intuitive sequencer to create authentic and lively hi-hat rhythms on the spot!
- Play ‘magic’ keys for constant variations that always stay natural and highly realistic
- Improvise variations, fills, and rolls with your keyboard and modulation wheel!
- Deep sampling with a clean, rich, and lively sound for maximum flexibility
