GRID MACHINE PULSE, machine number 4 from the grid machine series comes set up to deliver strange unique melodic grooves for use in every genre of modern electronic music. From every type of cinematic piece, thru house melodic parts and on into downtempo atmospheric hooks. (more…)

The third in the ever growing collection of Grid Machine products is now available from loop masters.

Chain is a unique and novel beast,  delivering strange cascading melodic grooves for use in every genre of modern electronic music.

Anything that needs a melodic twist, or any time you need melodic inspiration Chain is there to provide the input.

You can use the internal sounds or route Kontakt to your favourite synth for your own entirely unique compositions.
