Soul Drums

Meet Your New Drummer
Soul Drums was designed to give you an immediate and inspiring drum partner, the perfect drum session anytime you need it, with advanced controls and a vintage soul, able to adapt to the changing needs of modern production.

Modern Sound, Vintage Soul
An antithesis to the clean and clinical, Soul Drums echoes the greats of Motown with an old-meets-new foray, fusing the best of vintage and modern hardware and techniques with a forward-thinking design to create a drum instrument larger than the sum of its parts and unlike any other.

Ready To Play
Meticulously hand-crafted kit presets let you instantly change your sound from dry to fully-produced, and tailored to genre. Meanwhile over 1000 of built-in patterns get you going instantly, with everything from '60s/’70s grooves and breakbeats to hip-hop, funk, jazz and much more.

Deeply Editable
Soul Drums sounds amazing right out of the box, but for those that want full control it goes deep, offering extensive per-drum controls, 14 mixable mics, a fully-customizable bleed matrix, per-element send effects, a bus effects rack, full multi-out, and integrated mapping presets for most electronic drums.

INSTRUMENT

A Pedigree of Soul
Starting with a hand-picked selection of drums and microphones in Studio C at Criteria Recording Studios (formerly The Hit Factory) in Miami, the recording studio of seminal greats like James Brown, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, Aretha Franklin and many more, Soul Drums was created with heritage at the forefront. We wanted an instrument that would embody the golden age of soul and allow a new generation to create within it.

Dynamic Possibilities
In order to make Soul Drums as versatile as possible multiple drum models were sampled. The bass drums were recorded using both felt and wood beaters, and all others recorded separately using both sticks and brushes. In addition to your choice of drum models and exciters, multiple play modes are available, with up to 9 velocity layers, and up to 6 round robins for a consistently natural and fluid sound.
