“I was assigned to create some lo-fi tracks and quickly realized I needed a faster, more flexible tool to nail that warm, nostalgic sound. That’s why we built Los Lo-Fi Drums. I’ve since used it for all kinds of genres—it’s incredible how easily it adapts to whatever vibe you’re after.”
— Marcelo Treviño (Composer, ELA Director & Founder)
