XLN Audio Addictive Drums ADPak: Vintage Dry

GBP £60.00 (UK/EU orders incur VAT)

The 1970s were a golden era for rock, disco, funk and just about any style that relied on a solid backbeat. The drums were dry, fat and crisp – and it was good! Today, there is a revival of that 70s sound by chart-topping artists like Daft Punk, Mike Snow and Justice. With Vintage Dry, you too can have those glorious drum sounds.

Summary

XLN Audio began by modifying Studio INGRID’s 1968 Ludwig Silver Sparkle kit. They tuned and dampened the individual drums using authentic 70s methods: The kick was stuffed with a pillow and a large sheet of felt. Newspaper was taped to the snare heads and more felt sheets were pinned to the toms. To ensure sonic authenticity, they only used microphones from the 1960-70s (Coles, Neumann, Sennheiser and Bang & Olufsen) through the studio’s vintage API console. Vintage Dry includes 30 mix-ready presets that give you instant access to a variety of sounds ranging from softer early 70s folk to punchy late 70s disco. The Addictive Drums 2 engine makes it easy to modify any of these presets to suit your exact musical needs. To help you find your inspiration, they’ve also created the Dry Beats and Songs MIDIpak, giving you instant access to inspired rhythms played by some outstanding session drummers.

The Addictive Drums 2 engine is included with every Addictive Drums 2 ADpak and Bundle we sell. In other words, this product does not require any other software to work and can be used by itself (in Standalone mode) or as a plugin within host music software. For new users, that means this product is an entry-point into the world of Addictive Drums 2. For existing Addictive Drums 2 users, this product is an expansion to their collection of extraordinary drum sounds.
