Tape Series

Expansions

The MPC "Tape Series" Expansion Pack provides a gateway into the sounds that helped us fall in love with music in the first place. Nostalgia evoking textures with beats that move your soul! Warm, cozy vibes that remind you of the gear and techniques that helped carve the sound of the most emulated and imitated time period.

Per usual, you'll find new & unheard punchy organic drums, soulful chords, gritty samples, and smooth bass lines. The entire Tape Series has been dipped in layers of texture, character, and soul via outboard processing by classic gear by SSL, Neve, API, and more.

Tape Series is also the first of its kind to utilize the Air Flavor/Flavor Pro plugin to elevate the sound across the entire expansion. We've carefully crafted a master chain on each program using Flavor to give beat makers an inside look at our process to learn from!

Tape Series Vol. 1 delivers those classic authentic vibes MSXII Sound Design is known for. Often imitated, never duplicated! Vol 1 also brings the greatest collection of Lo-Fi Warmth and the sonic punch of analog inside your MPC making your beats hit even harder! Each drum hit and melodic sample has been carefully processed through high-end outboard then transferred to Ampex 2 inch tape delivering the ultimate punch and saturation. From vintage slick melodic samples through to warm and deep kicks......The Tape Series provides a whole to collection of drums and samples like never before.
