Stylus RMX Realtime Groove Module

Featuring the Spectrasonics Advanced Groove Engine!

Stylus RMX is a completely new groove-based virtual instrument plug-in for Macintosh and Windows. Stylus RMX is the first product to offer the combined power of Groove ControlTM with Spectrasonics Advanced Groove Engine (S.A.G.E.tm) technology giving users dramatic new control over groove production and performance.

Spectrasonics' in-house development team created the new instrument from the ground up, with dozens of new features including the ground-breaking Chaos DesignerTM, a completely redesigned multi-page user interface, a new core library of sounds, all with a focus on realtime groove creation and performance.

New Core library

Also new in Stylus RMX are thousands of new Kit modules, as well as user Kit construction. The new sound menus have over 10,000 new single hits, all arranged in organized categories. Users can create their own customized multitrack remix grooves and kits, save them into the plug-in, and even share them with other Stylus RMX users on different platforms and hosts. It's the ultimate Remix-oriented sound module for building grooves.
