Produced in collaboration with legendary production heavyweight Dave Parkinson, we are proud to present the highly-anticipated and long-awaited Dave Parkinson Trance Essentials 2! After over two years of intensive work, Dave has created a massive and versatile collection of high-impact samples – gorgeous, shimmering plucks, epic leads, and quality sound presets, to heavy-hitting basses, FX, drum hits, and vocal loops – all in one single pack. Weighing in at a whopping 12 GB (10 GB compressed), this pack is overflowing with creative inspiration and highly usable sounds designed to last for years to come.
For anyone after that techno-inspired, banging 140 BPM trance sound, you simply cannot go wrong with this pack! If you’re not familiar with Dave’s work, for the past 25 years he has worked and collaborated with many of the leading names in the industry, including Simon Patterson, John Askew, Jordan Suckley, Paul Oakenfold, Mark Knight, Eddie Bitar, Tall Paul and many, many others. His discography spans the entirety of dance music, covering almost every genre imaginable – from house and trance to live indie bands and more traditional music.
Sample Pack Content
Due to the sheer size of this pack, we’ve split it up into smaller parts to make downloading easy. Please note that you’ll need 12 GB of free space to extract everything.
Bass Hits & Loops
Dave has been behind some of the most prolific basslines and drops in the history of trance – and this section showcases his ability to sculpt and compose bass sequences that really rock your low, mid, and top end. Every bassline loop is key-labeled, with all MIDI files included for each loop (including the individual layers). The bass loops are broken down by key into subfolders.
Drum Hits
All drum one-shot samples are engineered to pristine quality and diverse enough to use across a wide range of electronic dance music genres.
Drum & Percussion Loops
This section is packed full of usable loops at 140 BPM, with a ton of versatile, high-energy styles to suit different sounds. All loops are available in full, stripped, and percussion-only variants for easy mixing and matching in your productions.
FX
Dave is well known for his innovative, creative manipulation of FX and this FX section is arguably a complete sample library in its own right. All the FX are broken down into easy to navigate subfolders for quickly finding the transition or one shot you need to spice up your track.
Logic Pro X Project Files
Complete and truly usable, each of these project files for Logic Pro X has its own distinctive mood and contains all samples, synths, and associated MIDI files for each melodic element. All project files are key and BPM labeled for ease of use. Be sure to check out all three audio demonstrations for a comprehensive insight into what is included in the pack. All audio demonstrations are available to hear via the audio player playlist button on the top right of this page.
Music Loops
Stuck for inspiration? Dig into Dave’s music loops to instantly get your creative juices flowing. At 140 BPM, the different acid, synth, pad, pluck, and sequence loops are fundamentally "song starters” with some truly creative melody and chord writing showcased in each one. All synth loops come with corresponding MIDI files so you can quickly chop and change to fit your own tracks.
Spire Sound Bank
These are patches exported directly from the work on the sample pack and his own existing projects, so you are getting the genuine "bread and butter” sounds Dave uses daily in the studio. All sounds are named and organized in traditional Freshly Squeezed Samples fashion.
Synth Hits & Stabs
Want to get a tighter bass drop at your climax? Use bass hits in your sampler for tighter envelope control and more punch in your mix. All the one-shots are engineered to perfection and instantly usable straight out of the box. All one-shots samples also have the key in the filename.
Vocal Hits & Loops
Vocal hits and loops can be the secret ingredient needed to spice an otherwise lacking breakdown, or add drive to your build ups and climaxes. Used correctly, vocal loops can turn an average track into an epic one.
Artistic Influences
While producing this sample library Dave was inspired and influenced by artists like Armin van Buuren, Simon Patterson, Jordan Suckley, John Askew, Eddie Bitar, Greg Downey, Ben Nickey, Mark Eteson, and others.
