Toontrack has announced the release of a new Superior Drummer 3 expansion pack by recording industry icon and multi-Grammy Award-winning producer/engineer/mixer Elliot Scheiner (Steely Dan, Van Morrison, The Eagles).
The State of the Art SDX expansion features 7 vintage-to-modern kits, all handpicked to showcase the absolute maximum width of tones and timbres.
Recorded at Elliot Scheiner’s choice studio, the famed Clubhouse in Upstate New York, it boasts three different room ambiences; the subtle, dry and tight Studio Iso, the warm and intimate-sounding Library as well as the hard-hitting but still acoustically perfect Live Room. To add, selected kits were sampled using brushes and recorded with a Decca Tree microphone setup or alternative ambiences, giving you an even more eclectic palette of flavors to choose from.
In addition to the drums, presets by Elliot as well as the Toontrack sound design team are provided, allowing you get started instantly with fully balanced and mix-ready sounds. On top of that, a generous collection of custom grooves and fills inspired by the kits, Elliot’s discography and the overall vibe of the session are included. All combined, this SDX gives you the total package of drums, mixes and grooves.
The SDX is available to purchase for 179 USD/EUR at the Toontrack store and from distributor Best Service.
Additionally, Toontrack has announced the launch of its Superior September campaign including offers on Superior Drummer 3, all classic SDX expansions and a selection of more recently released SDXs.
