Analogue Drum Plastique [DVD] [Kontakt]

Plastique is a hard hitting rock kit with tone and punch for miles. This kit will drive a classic rock track with authority and add flavour to fusion and pop pieces.

The kit itself is a vintage 1970s Ludwig Vistalite in Bonhamesque configuration and tuning, including two vintage Ludwig Supraphonic snares and Paiste 2002 cymbals. The kit was sampled in a big room with plenty of character imparting an expansive sound on these samples. As usual we've used nothing but the finest gear to capture the kit, including Neumann mics, a vintage Neve desk, API and Chandler preamps and a roll of 2" tape.

Sonic references: Led Zeppelin, John Bonham, Them Crooked Vultures, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs, The Secret Machines, Thunder.

Features

Round robin: each velocity layer contains 6 round-robin samples, played randomly to ensure realistic performances.
