Twiddly Bits Hip Hop & R&B Groove Library For Yamaha RM1X
The Yamaha RM1x Hip Hop and R&B Groove Library comprises no less than 25 brand new and highly kewl hip hop/R&B grooves created for Twiddly Bits by Ron E Beck, one-time Tower Of Power drummer (in their prime), and now sought-after East Bay producer and recording artist.
Ranging from sparse and slinky R Kelly/TLC type grooves, to earthy funk, to raw, up front grooves not so much in your face as down your throat , all can of course be remixed, stretched, and deconstructed on the fly using the RM1x's real-time knobs and performance controls.
What's in a groove?
Each groove has a wide variety of independently controllable drum/percussion parts, plus bass, keys, guitar, synths, and custom effects. Grooves range from 4 to 16 bars in length.
But that's not all. Twiddly Bits have trawled the Keyfax vaults looking for all those juicy out-takes that didn't make it onto some of the more sober MIDI sample volumes and added a further 96 individual instrument licks that you can cut and paste into any pattern, to build or spice it up. Guitar lines, basslines, drumloops, synth parts, and even some snakey trumpet and sax phrases.
Everything comes in native (R1P) format. Yep, just insert the floppy, find an empty pattern, and hit load. You get the right sounds, effects, tempo... instantly.
