What does an XOpak do?

XOpaks are editable beat & sample expansions for XO.
They contain curated beats & samples that you build your sound upon by using XO and your samples & grooves.

With these punching drum beats that positively ooze freshness, you get Rachel K Collier's full signature sound built up from house-based electronic grooves driven by beefy kicks and snares, punctuated with idiosyncratic one-shots and organic distorted percussion.

If you've ever seen her perform, you'll already have a good idea of the sort of sonic goodies you'll be getting in this XOpak. Rachel K Collier's live performances are more like mini studio masterclasses than simple songs. Each part is sung, sampled, or played, building up layer upon layer until the individual pieces seem to find their final form almost by magic as a perfectly balanced club banger is born.

These infectious, perfectly balanced grooves come fully formed with vocal samples and delicately constructed percussion and drum tracks. Great to use as a starting point in your productions, and thanks to XO's inbuilt sequencer and the infinite hot-swapping capabilities of the software, each one is ultimately customizable. Wonky Woo sounds pretty heavy right out the box, but those toms can just as quickly become synth stabs, or why not swap them out for kettle drums, and you're ready to set the dance floor alight! With XO, the possibilities are literally endless.
