We could mention that we set out to record the best Jazz drum library ever made but ended up with something far bigger; drums that transcend the narrow confines of a genre and rather define an era – an age of music spanning from Jazz, Blues to Hip Hop and Rock. We could mention Blackbird Studio’s stock of 1400 Microphones, 35 channels of Pultec EQ, 24 channels of Fairchild compression and hundreds of outboard mic/pre channels including Telefunken, Neve, API, RCA and Chandler. Or how this studio not only is the natural choice for the who’s who of the music industry but that it is known to lend a documented bit of magic to every project to ever enter and exit its doors. We could even go as far as rant about how drummer and world musician Roy “Futureman” Wooten heard every single hit and swirl recorded as part of a larger whole, as part of a musical sequence rather than as a solitary, monotonous hit and that the result permeates every sample with an intensity and force unheard of. Or we could mention how these sounds incarnate the past, embody the present and at the same time how they will help you shape the sound of tomorrow through Superior Drummer’s endless possibilities.
The Custom and Vintage SDX features extensive stick and brush recordings of a unique collection of drums and cymbals, designed to give everyone from top producers down access to the cream of custom and vintage drums, built by craftsmen from the 1920s right up to the exceptional instrument makers of today. Most of the highly prized instruments that come with this library, like the 1920s Ludwig Black Beauty or the Craviotto Timeless Timber, are extremely hard to come by and can only be found in the collections of top studios or hired from rental facilities in the major music centers of the world.
These professional-quality, real-feel MIDI drum loops can be used with any PC or Apple MIDI-compatible music software or hardware sequencer capable of reading standard MIDI files.
Deep, deeper, deepest. Ambient Tools is the ultimate resource for drones, atmospheres, soundscapes and pads. Ambient Tools is available as a refill for Reason 4 and up and a zipped samplepack in wave format. Almost all samples (monotones, drones and atmospheres) are created in such a way that you only need to assign one single sample to C3 in your sampler and then use the whole keyboard. Our Ambient Tools collection benefits from the revival of the old sampling technology and its charming lo-fi sounding artefacts. Spin it down and hear how deep music can sound!
If you’re in search of vocal phrases and adlibs to give your instrumental track that little extra or to add a new color or idea to your song, Liquid Adlibs is the great new library to choose from. Over 2300 adlibs and phrases, both verbal and non-verbal. Performed by three female and five male singers. The integrated Melodyne technology engine gives you the freedom to modify, quantize, re-groove, timestretch, pitch or change the formant of every single part of an adlib or phrase for your individual expression. Combining adlibs and phrases you are also able to create your own choruses and verses. Liquid Adlibs contains many different styles and lyrics (British and American vocalists) to choose from: Pop, Dance, Soul, RnB, Ragga, Rave, Electronica, screams and spoken words. If you prefer electronic and modified vocoder-like vocals, you can get some amazing results through radical pitching, formant changing, quantizing and stretching in the editor mode of the liquid engine.
