Taped Synthethic Noises
Orlando JX10 is awesome if you understand when perfection isn’t perfecrion in the normal sense. But for house, techno, electro, pop and more, this library can have a very cool ability to add character and diversification. It contains 444 edgy sounds from the Roland JX10 synthesizer. Before sampling, the sounds were recorded to cassette tape.
The refill highlights the importance of imperfection and “sampliness” in an overly polished sound world, it was made to sound decidedly gritty and noisy, highlighting a kind of Ensoniq Mirage or Roland S-10 / Akai S-700 feeling which is just right for the production of 12″ length techno with some edge plugins seldom gives you. This is actually seriously fun!
Also included are TR-909 and V-Synth kits and drum sounds. You can make entire tracks with the refill or use it as an extra spice. Compatible with Reason 4 and upwards. Includes new variations on the Reason factory patch “Amazing Lead” (for Malström) which was programmed by Bitley when working at Reason Studios aka Propellerhead back in those days.
Orlando JX comes with Combinator patches as well as NNXTs and ReDrum kits. The refill is compatible with Reason version 4 and up. It takes the experience back to when samples were allowed to sound like samples and when you start building tracks with it you will understand how fresh and cool a little dirt can be in the mix.
