Ian Boddy has released his fourth sample library, Beatalogue, offering "filtered, mangled and messed up electronic drums".

This follow up to Drumalogue takes a selection of electronic drum patterns and loops which were then fed through Boddy's massive modular synth system. These were then filtered, mangled and generally messed up using a huge number of modules, all in the analogue domain.

All the loops have between 3 and 5 variations and sonically range from sweet filtering all the way through to completely crunched and twisted mayhem. The quality of the distortion and overdrive achieved using these techniques gives the loops a "gorgeous organic feel" which is further heightened by the sound of the modular itself with its fuzzy warmness and tripping envelopes.

The sounds are provided as 300 mono samples at 44.1Khz, 24-bit, in WAV format and also in Rex2 and Apple Loops formats enabling them to be used at various tempos and dissected by the end user for their own purposes.

The drum Loops were filtered, mangled and messed up via the following analogue synthesisers:

• Roland System 100-M.
• Analogue Systems.
• Doepfer A-100 modular system.
• Analogue Solutions.
• Livewire AFG, Vulcan & Dalek Modulators.
• Metasonix TM-2 Tube BP filter & R-53 Tube Waveshaper/Ring Mod.
• Flight of Harmony Plague Bearer.
• The Harvestman Malgorithm.
• WMD Geiger Counter.
• Make Noise QMMG.
• Minimoog.
• VCS3.

Beatalogue's RRP is £24.99 / €29.99 / $39.99 (Download only).
