Nine Volt Audio has announced the release of Chroma Rex: Electronic Edition in REX2, Stylus RMX, ACID and Apple Loop formats, with all proceeds going to charity.
Chroma Rex: Electronic Edition is a collection of 396 loops designed to allow musicians to trigger a variety of chromatic riffs from their favorite sampler or loop player to create melodies and tempo-synced chord progressions - all while staying locked to the groove of their track.
Using 33 different sounds from Nine Volt Audio's latest release Melodic REX: Electronic Edition, Chroma Rex provides 33 sets of loops based around octave and octave+fifth patterns, making every loop "chordally-ambiguos" and flexible enough to create leads or tonal backdrops. And as part of Nine Volt Audio's BPM Flex Series, every REX-based loop can be used at virtually any tempo without artificial stretching or unwanted audio-artifacts.
For owners of Melodic REX, the 396 loops is an "indispensable new addition", making Melodic REX even more flexible than it already is.
Specifications:
- Chroma Rex contains 396 REX2 files organized into 21 suites covering a tempo range of 80-133 BPM. Using the loops within Stylus RMX requires the user to drag-and-drop only one folder into RMX's included S.A.G.E. Converter.
- Chroma Rex is also offered in ACIDized Wav and Apple Loop formats. Like all Nine Volt Audio releases, any/all formats can be downloaded upon purchase.
- Chroma Rex features 13 combo suites that present an "A" and "B" loop group. Loops in combo suites play with and counter to one another creating multi-part musical passages and the ability to create fuller sounding mixes.
- All loop file names identify the musical key and tempo.
- Chroma Rex is available through December 25th for $9.99 via Download Delivery.
