Rob Papen EDM and Urban Synth Bundle: A Double-Dose of 'Inspiration Software' for Producers of Dance and Dubstep, DnB, Garage and Grime Genres
Wow. The software excitement just keeps on coming. The New Beatmaker favourite Rob Papen dropped not one, but two synth bundles this week:
The aptly-named EDM Synth Bundle is a highly-flexible, Herculean offering, with masses of diverse sounds for EDM (electronic dance music) producers and DJs alike. As such, it comprises Predator — a ‘phat’- sounding killer soft synth that combines inspiring presets and first-class features to create the perfect ‘go-to’ synth for contemporary music production; Punch — a speaker-rattling, body-shaking software instrument that delivers synthesized drums in the finest audio quality with breathtaking features for the contemporary music producer; and Blade — a cutting-edge additive synthesis powerhouse with a human touch that all adds up to an amazingly flexible and useful virtual instrument with an able arpeggiator and an array of pitch, modulation, and effects parameters.
Likewise, Urban Synth Bundle has been especially created to cater to the thumping needs of urban music producers of dubstep, drum and bass, garage, and grime genres where bass is the place. This time, the perfect Predator and Punch pairing join musical forces with SubBoomBass, a dedicated virtual bass synth filled to the brim with excessive amounts of low-end ammunition to detonate tracks to the dance floor and beyond! Unsurprisingly, Urban Synth Bundle will also seamlessly fit the workflows of those creating hip-hop, rap, and R&B tracks.
Limited quantities of EDM Synth Bundle and Urban Synth Bundle serial downloads are available to purchase online from authorised Rob Papen dealers worldwide for €199.00 EUR/$239.00 USD/£169.00 GBP each.
