Loopmasters Real Drums Vol 1 Vintage Gretsch MULTiFORMAT

Loopmasters proudly announce the first in a brand new series of multi sampled acoustic drum kits containing multiple velocity layers and round robin techniques that allow for incredible expressive drum performances. Whether you program up drums by hand or choose to trigger from a MIDI controllers the Real Drums series allow for perfect natural sounding drum tracks every time.

First Up for the Real Drums Series is a wonderful Vintage Gretsch Kit played with Drum Sticks meticulously recorded at Broadoak Studios by producer Harvey Summers, using an eclectic array of stunning vintage mics and equipment in their wonderfully vibey and great sounding live room.

The kit itself comprises a 50’s bass drum, 4 toms from the 70’s and a custom shop snare, all from Gretsch and all finished in that lovely broken-glass glitter! This makes for quite a unique configuration and one that sounds fat, punchy and musical.
Our aim has been to produce an extremely playable patch with the emphasis on authenticity, flexibility and quality. All samples are at 24-bit resolution and each and every Instrument from the kit has been multi sampled with up to 54 velocity layers with most sounds also programmed with an alternative sampled versions which we have implemented into round robin layers within the sample patches, allowing each strike to trigger a different version of the sample which helps with convincing natural sounding beats and drum rolls.

All drums in the patch appear in both ‘snares on’ and ‘snares off’ modes mapped at different octaves across the keyboard so you can hear the snares rattle in sympathy with the other drums, as they would naturally. Or you can choose to use the ‘snares off’ versions if you prefer a tighter sound.
