DRUMS

The rhythm section features over 580 Real Drums, complete drum patterns covering a wide variety of musical
genres with Intro, Ending, 4 Variations, Fill and Break.
Unlike other musical instruments, where the rhythmic sequences are mostly short loops controlled via MIDI,

cuts or editing. The ending result is incredibly smooth and natural.
EVENT adds Real Drum track equalization, as well as the Drum Lock mode which allows to loop the rhythmic
pattern that is being played.

reassign the individual percussion sounds and saving them on the 32 available User Drum locations.

control loops as you would find them in the House, Hip Hop and Latin genre, as well as an amazing variety of
Afro-Cuban or Brazilian type Latin percussions with Conga, Shaker, Maracas, Cowbell, Cajon, Tambourine and
many more.

BASS

EVENT’s bass section provides a wonderful library of 256 Real Bass: bass lines that are recorded in the studio
by real bass players on various tones and perfectly synchronized with the rhythm of the style.
It is impossible to resist let yourself be carried away by the energy of these bass lines, from traditional Ballads,
Soul rhythms, to Disco Funk.

The tone color, the various keys correct positions on the neck and all the natural vibes of the performer give
the sensation of playing with a real bassist next to you!
Real Bass adapts naturally to chord changes, as if it were a normal MIDI bass, even playing To Lowest mode
with the bass upside down on the lowest note!
It is easy to switch between MIDI bass and Audio in real time (Twin Bass), as well as modify the voice of the
Real Bass using a parametric equalizer or lock the current set using the Lock Bass mode.
The series of functions available for Bass such as Manual, To Lowest, To Root and Bassist are particularly refined,
the latter for a combined control of the chord obtained between the Manual bass and the notes played on the
right. Finally, the Multibass supports custom Bass progressions for various chords.

CHORDS
