My opinion:
With its supersaturated feel, Beat Voltage attracts you like electricity: once you put your hand on it, it is hard to detach yourself :). However, the samples are processed by common-sense and the experience will not be painful.
Speaking of usability, Beat Voltage is basically so versatile, that can be loaded in any minimal or hip hop project etc. I created below some examples of beats with samples from the pack only (the sound is raw without any additional processing).
Hip Hop beat 83 BPM:

Dubstep/ Tech beat 140 BPM:

Twerk beat 100 BPM:
[/fusion_builder_column][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”]
As you see in the examples, the samples are full bodied and with some kind of analogue warmth. The samples are slightly distorted, equalized and compressed, being production-ready, without altering the overall mix. The content is perfectly balanced and with the DirectWave patches, you’ll get instant access to pre-made kits.
I recommend Beat Voltage sample pack for all EDM producers, especially for those into dubstep, trap, twerk, dub-tech and minimal, looking for drum samples full of character and processed by professionals.
