Part of our Elastik tool series, this library offers a diverse collection of beautiful musical phrases. The complexity of the instrument means that it is very difficult to recreate it as a virtual instrument. However, with this extensive collection of performance-based loops, it’s incredibly easy to add realistic Pedal Steel performances to your own musical productions.
The library contains 2.8 GB of data and 568 loops and phrases. They are divided into two groups with 284 unique loops, both dry (no effects) and processed (mostly reverb added). This gives the user either instant “ready to use” versions or complete control by adding their own processing options.
The phrases are organized by tempo, with the original recording tempo ranging from 70 to 120 beats per minute. They are also recorded in different keys. As with all Elastik Instrument Series libraries, playback and recording quality is of the highest standards. However, the recorded sound is the same for all loop categories. Elastik’s powerful tempo matching and pitch bending tools make it easy to mix and match phrases from different categories to create a unique performance.
The Pedal Steel is the perfect choice for country music producers and is the perfect addition to our Country Loops library, and soundtrack composers will find a library perfect for creating compelling country music phrases. Pedal Steel is not only about traditional country music. The instrument regularly finds its way into blues (try it with our Blues Colors library), bluegrass and American folk. However, don’t let that stop you from experimenting. For example, added to chill-pop or RnB, the soft sound of Pedal Steel can set the right mood. So whether it’s traditional country music or more experimental crossover style, the Pedal Steel sound raises the bar and gets right in.
