Hip-Hop
Groovy, fat and heavy Hip-Hop with a modern sound in contrast to the
Basic Hip-Hop style. It's been programmed to sound a little "off" in
the beat with a nice swing to it. Closely related to Modern R'n'B. New,
fresh kick, snare and effects noises were designed especially for this
style. LW
Nu RnB
An effective groove with poly-rhythmic fills for that special feeling.
Modern RnB/Hiphop style with a compressed sound, if you like. Kick
and snare were designed especially for this style. LW
* Live Hip-Hop
In a big discussion about Hip-Hop, a friend told me that a real drum-
mer in a Hip-Hop band only needs a bass drum, a snare, a hihat, a
crash and no toms. He was right. This style will provide you with a full
palette for your live song. Don't forget to use the percussion in the
chorus! MS
* Sloppy Hip-Hop
The "Sloppy Hip Hop" style is inspired by the works of Beastie Boys
and others, giving you a sense of floating time, where quantizing is
banned... The basic character of the groove is slightly altered from
level 14 and up. Warning: Changing the loose handclap to a more
distinct sound may produce some really weird timing effects, as will
excessive use of the Humanise function. Select this style when you're
in the mood for drifting away, avoiding all the boundaries of a regu-
lated beat. NE
* Kelly
This is a cool, yet energetic modern R&B-style. The basic beat is slow
and heavy while the hihats and other small sounds play in double
tempo, creating a dynamic contrast. Try using a lot of different fills to
vary the formula. No feelings were hurt during the making of this style.
