A different approach for the next installment in the Jazz Essentials Series. This collection of grooves offers full live tracks of essential jazz grooves in a wide range of tempos and styles. Due to the nature of this genre, we wanted to go with the live feel and not relegate great playing and phrasing to a collection of one, two, or four bar loops. You get the full takes! Perfect for playing along or for grabbing just the bars you need. An absolute wealth of traditional jazz, played with impeccable taste and time.
Jazz Essentials II offers users nearly 2.1 GB of live jazz
drum tracks, divided into three easy-to-use categories:
SESSION A - Traditional Jazz 60-120 BPM
SESSION B - Traditional Jazz 135-200
SESSION C - Latin Jazz, 3/4 Jazz, Blues/Jazz Swing
We let the tape roll and catured it all - all the swing
you crave as well as the warmth of a maple Gretsch drumset to deliver a versatile resource of jazz and jazz-latin grooves.
All tempos offer a dedicated groove section - from basic time-keeping to the "let loose" syncopations of the genre as well as a dedicated fills sections, complete with intros, pick-ups, and endings. And, to round out the disc's versatilty, we've included a matching set of multi-velocity
drum and cymbal samples from the kit used in recording the
loops.
So, whether you want to play along and hone your chops comping with the
full source tracks or dig out your audio editor and construct
your next jazz project with loops, the rhythmic possibilities
of Jazz Essentials II are
limitless. It will quickly become an indispensable
compositional tool in any jazz musician's sample library.
Available
on DVD in 16/44 WAV, 24/44 WAV and 24/44 AIFF formats (no REX2).
