F9 TRAX Los Angeles

21st Century Pop in Logic, Live and WAV formats

TRAX Los Angeles is Volume 1 of a series of TRAX releases dedicated to bringing you the sounds, techniques and music from the chart dominating creatives working out of the City of Angels.   

• 5 Entire DAW project pages show you exactly how modern records are pieced together and are ready for you to tear down and build into your own composition. A full set of session notes is available on every page showing you how we’ve achieved the production sonically and musically .Every trick is there for you to investigate and learn from.

• Over 110 Multi-sampled instruments and sound menus are used in this release with full instructions on how to add these instruments into your own library. On this release the sound library tops 3.5 Gb ( unzipped ) and includes Pop and reverb-drenched pianos, tons of Multi-sampled analogue, Classic & upfront Digital synths alongside some exceptional drum menus. 

• Our new Zenith 808 and 606 & Microbrute kits are included featuring a minimum of 8 way Round-Robin sampling and Analog Parallel processing on the way in. As always everything has been sampled with a gold standard recording chain including API Pre amps, Neve 1081 and 1057 EQs, SSL Xrack EQ + Dynamics, GML 8900 + 8200 Dynamics + EQ

• Like all TRAX releases this pack needs No 3rd Party Plugins to operate. See how good your DAW can sound when it’s fed the right material.

• Future Retro techniques are heavily used in LA and new additions to the studio at F9 are in full effect on this release. The classic reverb tails of an original Lexicon 224 can be heard on many of the drum and FX menus and more than 50% of the drum content has been processed and warmed up by pushing into an original ex-BBC Studer A80 mastering tape machine ( Brand new 911 tape used ).

• TRAX releases speak for themselves and the exceptional feedback from users at every single level from hobbyists to the world's finest producers, writers and artists means we know just how important these releases are - We are now dedicated to pushing soundware forward and getting you the hottest sounds and techniques right inside your own DAW.

See the Notes, Learn the Tricks 

Every generation sees new musical tricks and fashions making their way into productions. IN every TRAX release you have full access to the Midi and controller information so you can see exactly how contemporary chord voicing is applied in modern pop or how syncopated riffs between instruments work together as a whole. 

• See how using just root and 3rds instead of full chords instantly gives you a 21st century sound
• See how the end of the note is almost as important as the start position in terms of groove and tightness 

See the Processing, Learn the Tricks 

So you need a drive laden with Plugins to create a professional mix right? Not so - We have achieved all this with nothing more than the stock set of processes inside Logic and Live. We've even got some serious tricks in play to get these close to the commercial Level*.
