Teletone Audio Soulfi [KONTAKT]

The heartbeat of soul. Recorded with authentic 1955 ribbon microphones and vintage, era-specific drums, Soulfi captures the heartbeat of a timeless era reimagined through our innovative beatmaker. Ribbon Microphones To capture the dynamic and era-specific sound of the drums, we used vintage RCA ribbon microphones with modern ribbon mics playing a supporting role. Renowned for their smooth, natural response and rich tonal qualities, these classic mics add an authentic, old-school vibe. Iron Alloy Transformers Each drum was meticulously recorded using iron alloy transformers, which gave the recording a rich, warm, analog sound that added depth and character to every hit. Analog Tone Shaping The RCA microphones were then paired with vintage Tube-Tech EQs creating a crispy edge and a low end punch. Crispy, Tight and Punchy We crafted 41 different kits from over 100 vintage and modern drums, that were recorded with multiple round robins and velocity layers. The sample selection includes kicks, snares, hi-hats, toms, rides, crashes as well as a wide range of percussive elements like bongos, maracas, cowbell, tambourines, shakers, clave, snaps, claps and much more. Inspired Beats & Grooves Library We crafted over 100 beats inspired by our favorite artists, decades, and styles. Each beat includes 7 variations, giving you more than 700 grooves to spark your creativity. Every beat syncs perfectly with your host BPM without any time-stretching or loss of fidelity!
