Detailed, 1960's-era drum kits with never-before-seen Tuning and Dampening control, unique sweepable Hi-Hat for on-the-fly pedal control, 1960's-era Mixing environment with tube-style Drive, 660-style Compression, EQ, Plate Reverb and Tape effect.
-
Groundbreaking, never-before-seen DAMPENING and TUNING controls for each individual drum, and wide-ranging TUNING for cymbals.

Our unique process utilizes several moving parts under the hood to generate a natrual, gradual change from wide open to fully dampened, for incredible tonal flexibility.
-
Ranges from high-tuned, open Bop-style kit to down-tuned, dry 70's studio-style kit, and anything in between.
TUNING and DAMPENING
-
6 levels of Hi-Hat openness that can be swept in realtime for variable, realistic results.
-
Unique process that seamlessly moves between samples and mimics real Hi-Hat behavior.
SWEEPABLE, EXPRESSIVE HI-HAT
Recorded in Good Hands Drum Shop's former location, the space that was previously the world-renowned Quad Studios in Midtown Manhattan, using a combination of modern and vintage recording equipment, some of which has actual provenance.
We were proud to procure high end gear endorsements that were used in making these libraries from the following companies:
