Melodic REX:
Electronic Edition[/b] brings melody lines, textural leads and
groove-based tonal loops to the REX2 format. By crossing electronic
sound sources with beat-synced filters, swirling delays, modulators and a
range of other sound design tools, Melodic REX’s 500+ loops can be used
quickly and easily as melodic focal points in a track or as rich, tonal
backdrops.
So what makes Melodic REX so special?
Many
REX2 libraries with tonal loops fall short with poorly sliced material,
stretching artifacts or audible gaps between slices once the loop is
taken a few BPMs below its recorded tempo. None of these are issues with
Melodic REX. Because it’s part of Nine Volt Audio’s BPM Flex Series™,
any of the REX2 based loops (supported by most major sequencers) will
retain their groove at virtually any tempo without any audio artifacts!
No
matter if you use Stylus RMX, Reason, or any other REX2 host, or if you
prefer to use the included ACIDized Wav or Apple Loop formats, Melodic
REX provides a wide range of professional, cross-genre sounds that can
be used in contemporary and future-forward works of music.
REVIEWS
"...What
you won't be able to surmise from the online audio demos, though, is
how fantastically usable this library is... In short, this library is
elegantly simple in purpose and brilliant in execution. I'll be keeping
it close at hand." - Sound on Sound Magazine
"...Nine Volt have
made it clear that this title is designed to overcome the limitations
that most melodic REX libraries suffer, where poorly sliced material is
evident. In this case, they've done a fantastic job. The loops, while
not all melodic, are constructed from some shockingly pleasant synths.
There's no question of the quality and the loops can be used in most
genres. Rating: 9/10" - Computer Music Magazine
"...Using the
pre-organized suites, it's easy to add melodies into your tracks. At
first, the price looks a little heavy, but once you're inside, the
samples and tonal loops quickly generate the flowing melodies, allowing
you to suddenly build a track, which makes Melodic Rex a good value.
With plenty of different sounds to choose from, this would suit the
majority of dance music producers." - IDJ

Converter. - Melodic REX features 29 combo suites that present an "A”
and "B” loop group. Loops in combo suites play with and counter to one
