Plus you can save even more $$$ by buying more volumes (see the following table).

PROSAMPLES VOL.1 - HIP HOP & RNB 1

New York producers Anthony "Jovier" Kerr and Eddie "E Smoove" Bell present cutting edge street flava for your sampling pleasure! This hot collection from EastWest Includes construction kit style loops, all broken down into their basic elements, set up for quick sampling to produce the phattest trax possible. All loops at least 4 bars long so you can feel the flow, cut up and combine them into new combinations. Many are longer for easy song construction.

UK Dance Magazine Knowledge said: "Loads of these tracks could be used as is for Hip Hop or R'n'B from sultry deep tracks to hard slamming beat tracks. There are a lot CDs around for this genre, but this one stands out due to its quality sound, sparse atmospheric vibe, and wicked drum loops". Keyboard said: "The vibe is strictly mellow hip-hop, but with a remarkably wide range of grooves & colors. Instrument combinations are very inventive & effective. More of a live instrument feel to this disc than on some other sets I've heard - a nice change. 9/10” Keyboard.

Contents on this disc include 43 hot mixes in construction kit format. You get the loop, then various elements of the loop broken down. These dope loops range from 70 BPM through 97 BPM. Enough material to compose your next Hip Hop chart topping hit!!

Please note: the audio demos and review quotes are from the original version of these libraries. For a complete listing of what is on the ProSamples version download the ProSamples Library Wizard at the top of this page.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: There are a number of samplers on the market that claim to be AKAI S1000 compatible. Best Service, East West, and Zero-G only guarantee the data in the AKAI partition will function perfectly on the AKAI S1000 sampler. If you experience problems in conjunction with other samplers, you should consider using some of the more generic formats included in your ProSamples package such as AIFF, WAV, or AUDIO.
