Arturia has announced the release of an intuitive plugin designed to increase the impact and perceptual loudness of your drums, while preserving peak levels.
Developed with mixing engineer Emre Ramazanoglu, Mix DRUMS streamlines complex drum processing workflows into a single, efficient tool – allowing creators to achieve powerful drums in seconds.
Coherent parallel processing done right: Mix DRUMS delivers punch, presence, and pro-level finish, fast.
Built on mixing engineer Emre Ramazanoglu’s proven workflow and Arturia’s cutting-edge DSP, just load a preset, tweak a transient, and make every hit land harder – without sacrificing headroom.
Mix DRUMS features
- Smart Peak Control: One-click input ceiling feeds a transparent signal-path clipper.
- Distortion Architecture: Blend clean and distorted signals for warmth, weight, and depth.
- Noise: Vinyl crackle, tape hiss, and electronic textures. Place pre or post-processing for different effects.
- Transient Shapers: Independent attack and sustain controls to fine-tune smack and body on each band.
- Filter Sculpting: Musical HP/LP filters before and after drive stages to focus lows and tame highs.
- Dynamic Space Section: Add depth, movement, and width with reverb, tape and digital delays.
- Dual-Band Engine: Separate low and mid/high paths with dedicated drive, transient and tone stages.
- Clean Highs: Restore crisp hats and cymbals after distortion, perfectly in phase for clarity and punch.
- Mix-ready Presets: 92 factory presets organised by drum type, genre and intensity.
Mix DRUMS for Windows and Mac (VST/VST3, AU and AAX) is available to purchase for 99 USD/EUR at Plugin Boutique and from the Arturia store.
