The Resource - Lost Tapes Black Friday deal takes 70% off this Ueberschall Elastik library of instrumental licks and phrases, bringing it to $49.50 until Nov 29, 2026.
It is a collection of 11,172 loops and phrases, 7.5 GB of sample data spread across 6 Elastik soundbanks. Ueberschall pitches it at solos, chord and bass parts, and short instrumental hooks.
The maker lists House, Hip Hop, Pop, Jazz, Soul and Funk as the natural fits. It also says the library works for adding a real-instrument touch to an electronic production.
Sounds on offer include a range of keys such as acoustic and electric piano, organ and clavinet, plus synths, guitar and bass, with horns like sax, trumpet and flugelhorn rounding it out.
The phrases were played by studio musicians and recorded at 120BPM. They are sorted into three keys: a-minor, d-minor and e-minor.
The drums heard in the demo are not part of the library. Ueberschall says they come from its Disco Tape, Pop Art, Synth Phunk and Jazz Trip products.
The story goes back to Vintage Licks & Phrases, which Ueberschall released in 2002 after weeks of editing. It was one of four products later combined in the original The Resource library.
That release shipped on a 5-CD CD-ROM box set. Space was tight, so a large amount of edited material was left out and archived.
The maker says the archive was forgotten until the loops turned up again by a happy accident. It describes the contents as a mix of completely new phrases and variations on material that was already on The Resource.
Ueberschall also calls the library a complement to the original The Resource release.
The library runs in the Elastik Player, which is included. Tempo manipulation and ReTune let you adjust individual loops, so a phrase recorded at 120BPM in d-minor can be matched to your project's tempo and key.
The Elastik Player recommends macOS 10.12 or higher, or Windows 8 or higher. The Ueberschall Downloader needs an internet connection and the same recommended OS versions.
