Drumdrops has announced it is releasing the Vintage Folk Rock Kit Kontakt Pack tomorrow at 4pm BST with a special offer.
This pack is the first Kontakt pack which includes the brand new Drumdrops Kontakt Instrument that has been built from the ground up by our developers Divergent Audio. The new instrument is hugely powerful and a big improvement on the the first generation build.
The Vintage Folk rock Kit is a vintage 1966 Ludwig Hollywood Kit and was recorded with just 5 microphones – a kick, snare and three kit mics. Phill Brown recorded this kit at Livingston Studios in London and it has been sampled with sticks, hotrods and brushes. The Kontakt pack is compatible with the latest full version of Kontakt 5.5 (not kontakt player currently).
