All drums were played by Stephan Emig and recorded at the legendary Horus recording studio Recording Rooms A and B.

Recording Room A features a traditional warm vintage sound. Its surfaces range from brick to glass and wood—perfect for warm drums.

The power of drums is experienced in Recording Room B. Built especially for this purpose, its open and punchy sound gave heart and soul to countless records.

The main control room features a 48-channel ADT inline console, a Studer A 827 24-track tape deck, and an exquisite collection of classic outboard gear from such companies as Universal Audio, Crane Song, Avalon, Manley, Summit Audio, Lexicon, and Eventide.

The structure:

These loops have been carefully and professionally recorded by proven experts, using top-quality studio equipment, with sound optimized and recorded at 24-bits/44.1 kHz. Each BPM / folder consists of several drum grooves and fills and contains a mixed stereo drum loop, premixed groups, and all individual tracks as a dry version, including kick in/out, snare bottom/top, hi-hats, toms, ride, crash, overheads, and room microphones. They are premixed and ready to use, with perfect EQ and light compression. Every loop contains tempo information.

With each drum performance you get a huge selection of different loops, all of which work well together or can be used individually. All loops of a drum performance can easily be combined. Select loops for a complete song, or just use a sample for your song — all within seconds. These loops are easy and intuitive to work with, enabling a fast workflow, which, of course, is essential in music production.

Important: Please note that except the drums, all instruments are for demonstration purposes only and are not part of the library.
