Stylus™ is an innovative new type of software plug-in instrument that integrates a massive core library of thousands of cutting-edge groove elements, loops and samples, with a powerful user interface for creating your own grooves. Stylus can be used as a native plug-in instrument in hosts like Logic, Digital Performer, Cubase VST, Nuendo and Pro-Tools no sampler is necessary!

The huge 3 gigabyte core library of Stylus includes over 1000 brand-new loops, featuring insane new breakbeat remix loops with a cutting-edge vinyl attitude, from award-winning producer Eric Persing. The grooves are inspiration generators for application in a huge variety of remix genres including R&B, 2-step, Trip-Hop, Chemical, Epic House, Underground Hip-Hop, UK Garage, Downtempo Dub, Nu-skool, Acid Jazz, Trance, Funk, Alternative, Progressive, Rap, Abstract, Urban Neo-Soul, Big Beat, Slo-Jamz, Drum 'N Bass, and many others.

Each groove is presented in our widely-acclaimed Groove Control™ activated versions‹which allow you to change the pitch, tempo, feel and pattern independently ...without using any DSP! Since every groove can be mixed and matched at any tempo or feel, there are literally endless combination possibilities. You can also program your own grooves from scratch with thousands of edgy drum samples. In addition, the inspiring Groove Menus let you remix loops in real-time at every tempo from 50-180 BPM in both straight and swing feels. It's as simple as selecting a patch and playing your keyboard!

Over a thousand wild turntable FX and DJ tricks are included, as well as a killer live percussion loop section‹including congas, bongos, djembes, shakers, triangles, agogos and tambourines, all of which can be mixed into any groove separately!

Because of the powerful interface and synthesis engine of the plug-in, Stylus is a monster creative tool. You can do brand new techniques with Groove Control like randomizing the accents of a loop, turning a conga loop into a melodic part, radical filter sequencing, tweaking the tuning of just the snare, or filtering just the kicks, panning each slice in a different part of the stereo field, each all inside the loop! This is possible because the Stylus custom interface goes way beyond any of the current conventional samplers -each sample and slice has it's own adjustable synth parameters, and selecting the samples is as simple as playing the sample from your keyboard. The possibilities for creative manipulation are truly amazing... and yet it is so easy to use.
