EastWest's ProDrummer™ not only includes professional drum sounds; the producers, who record and mix the biggest artists in the music business, have included pre-mixed drum kits for use in your compositions using the 'state of the art' tools included in the ProDrummer™ software.

"At EastWest, we're all about the 'sound'; that's the only part that ends up in your track, so, in addition to the producer pre-mixed drum kits, we have included our favorite effects processors including Solid State Logic EQ and Dynamics, Transient Shaper, and the legendary SSL Stereo Bus Compressor; Ohmicide multiband distortion, compression, EQ and filter, which pretty much lets you create 'anything', and is perfect for EDM or media composers; plus EastWest's new Amp Simulator with 80 Amp Presets, and Expanded Convolution Reverb with 726 Additional Reverb Presets. Together these powerful tools enable user customization of the core sounds limited only by your imagination!"

Also included in each volume are over 14,000 MIDI drum grooves in different styles. Search for the right grooves for your song with our groove 'search engine' and assemble your song right inside ProDrummer™ with the built-in sequencer (or drag to your DAW). Use our built-in Velocity Processor to control the dynamic power of the drums. Export the song to your favorite DAW to build the rest of your track, it couldn't be easier!

More INFO: EastWest | ProDrummer™

 

I had to double take when I saw this... my drum kit is red with a silver snare...

hope it sounds as good as it looks...

 

Have a listen to the demos in the post.
I'd like to know if anyone DOESN'T think they suck.

 

yeah i just noticed the links, my flash blocker sort of obscures them....

seems like they went for a lot of high end, makes it sound a little "thin," and you can really hear how they cut the sustain,
not a drum expert by any means, interested to hear other assessments..

 

I think D'OH! Drummer™ would be more appropriate than ProDrummer™

 

oh well.. style over substance once again.. just another reason to not mind too much

when people obtain liberated demos to decide if it's worth their hard earned $ £ € *yes*
