Bill Bruford's Packet of Three. Audio CD, Akai CDROM & MIDI

KEYFAX DEBUTS WORLDS FIRST TRI-FORMAT SAMPLE CD WITH BILL BRUFORD.

Whatever, when you use these samples & loops you probably won't sound like the other guys. Please don't sound like the other guys! Pleads drum-meister Bill Bruford on the liner notes to Packet of 3, the Worlds first TRI-Format drum sampling CD produced by Twiddly Bits company Keyfax Software. Never one to chose the easy route, Bill Bruford was reluctant to churn out yet another drum sample CD in this way overcrowded field. With almost 70 minutes of unduplicated acoustic kit and Simmons electronic kit samples & loops. Packet of 3's unique approach is to offer material in the three basic formats: CD Audio, CD ROM and MIDI, enabling users across the entire spectrum of music production to tap into the legendary Bruford mind and time frame.

Packet of 3's acoustic menu encompasses full kit to tuned percussion, with items meticulously recorded using a wide variety of sticks, beaters, time signatures, tempi & sensibilities.

Meanwhile the electronic grooves clearly demonstrate Bill Bruford's unparralled contribution to the expansion of the role of a drummer in contemporary music.

With almost all grooves additionally available in Standard MIDI File form, users are free to experiment with sound substitution, tempo, playback mode etc., unheard of freedom compared to that offered by a normal drum sample CD.

More info on the Producer
Steve & Joe are veterans of the UK soul scene. The Cool Notes achieved chart successes during the eighties. They signed for PWL but the plan to 'sell soul back to the Americans' never came to fruition. They have however taken time out to produce and remix for the new breed of UK dance acts and are in the process of relaunching their careers again as The Cool Notes.

Format Information
GENERAL - Akai S1000 CD-ROMs work with not only the S1000 and S1100 but many other hard and software samplers that support the format too such as the EXS24, Reason and many hardware samplers. If you're not sure check if your sampler supports S1000 format AND exactly how well, it varies and a native format is always preferable if available.
PRODUCT SPECIFIC - This CD-ROM features all the drum and performance loops sliced up in programs that you can load and either play each slice as it is mapped across the keyboard or use the supplied MIDI Files to re-create the original loop and edit as you wish. This is an extremely powerful system allowing you quick and easy loop editing. Non-performance samples and full versions of the loops are also included in banks for quick auditioning too if you prefer to work this way.
