Outlook is a hybrid release from ModeAudio aiming to combine the delicacies of orchestral and acoustic instruments with the power of analogue synths, and comes in your choice of Acid WAV, Rex2, Reason ReFill or Live Pack formats. There are 155 loops including twinkling synth arps, soulful Rhodes, exotic found-sound percussion, shimmering live guitars and bass, and analogue drum machines, plus 55 tail samples to give a smooth decay to the loops, or to create new pitched instruments.

You’ll also find 89 drum and percussion hits, plus 87 MIDI files, and if you opt for the Ableton version, you also get 10 projects with each kit laid out in the Session view. Although the drums are a little under-produced, the rest of the pack is full of beautiful and inspiring, Bonobo-style loops.
