The collection
Beta Retrowave Melodics Vol. 1 & 2 are sample packs built from analog synth loops recorded direct to VHS and 4-track tape — the signal chain is analog from source to delivery, which gives the material the warmth, saturation, and subtle instability that digital emulations don't replicate. Vol. 1 contains 57 loops organized by Type, Key, and Tempo. Vol. 2 contains 48 loops organized by the same scheme. Both volumes cover Bass, Arps, Leads, Pads, and SFX across the '80s synthwave and electroclash spectrum — vintage poly synth tones, sequenced arpeggios, and melodic leads with era-appropriate processing. All files are tagged with Type, Key, and Tempo for fast DAW browser integration. The construction kit structure means related loops across categories share a harmonic and rhythmic identity — suitable for layered arrangement building as well as individual loop use. Vol. 1: 57 loops, 375+ MB. Vol. 2: 48 loops, 375+ MB. Bundle: 750 MB. 24-bit / 44.1kHz stereo WAV. Also available as PortaTron Cassettes.
