Drum & Bass Foundations by Techtronix
Drum and Bass has always been about the relentless drive of basslines and the raw energy of drums. From its roots in jungle through to the polished productions of Calyx, Teebee and Goldie, the genre has never lost its ability to make people move. Drum & Bass Foundations by Techtronix captures this essence, blending classic inspiration with a modern production edge.
This pack was designed to fit into that sweet spot between early liquid DnB and today’s powerful sound. The reeces and subs deliver low-end weight, the snares crack through the mix with authority, and the pads add harmonic depth to fill out your arrangements. Jazz, soul and ambient influences run throughout the patches, giving you tools to create music that rolls, evolves and captivates.
Every drum element has been synthesized in Xfer Serum, ensuring precise tuning and frequency balance. That means you can drop the samples straight into your sessions without pitching or heavy EQ. The bass section is loaded with heavily modulated warps and reese patches, while the pads and leads cover everything from smooth chords to biting riffs. With additional arps and utilities included, you’ll have all the building blocks you need to create professional DnB inside your Circuit Tracks.
Pack Contents:
- 64 patches including 32 basses, 32 leads and pads, plus 8 arpeggios
- 64 samples including 8 kicks, 16 snares, 8 percussion hits, 8 distorted 808s, and 16 monster bass samples
- 10 demo sessions for Circuit Tracks (not compatible with the Original Circuit)
- Original Circuit version split into A and B sides with the same samples but additional patches
Drum & Bass Foundations is more than just a sound pack — it’s a toolkit for capturing the full spectrum of DnB, from smooth liquid vibes to harder, more aggressive grooves. With everything tuned and ready to use, you can focus on building tracks that hit hard and flow effortlessly.
Take your Novation Circuit to new heights and inject your productions with the energy and emotion of Drum & Bass Foundations by TECHTRONIX.
