ProdMod is a new Ableton instrument library with sounds derived from a customized Moog Prodigy. The Prodigy that was sampled has got a breakout connection with a handmade patchbay attached to it. This allows to interrupt and split the synth's internal wirings and therefore offers much more sonic possibilities that go far beyond the off-the-shelf version.
ProdMod Live Pack contains 30 multi-sample instruments in Abletons Live's Rack format that transfer the sound of this vintage mono synth into today's music production environments.
The library delivers diversified material as the source for fat basslines, lively synth and keyboard sounds, warm pads or idiosyncratic oddities.

• Format: Ableton Live Pack, Live 8/9
