Plugin Boutique has launched a limited time promotion on the Planet 909 sample pack by Niche Audio, a collection of drum kits for Ableton Live and Native Instruments Maschine.
The pack includes 20 kits and 238 samples, with every single drum hit has been processed by an assortment of boutique (and low end) gear for maximum authentic vibe.
Most 909 sample packs are unprocessed recordings using variations of the 909s drum tunings and decays. Others are passively sampled through some kind of analog summing buss, a console, or recorded to analog tape. These are great and cover a lot of bases for musicians. However, the vast majority of records made with real 909 drums have processing on them, sometimes huge amounts of EQ and compression have been used on the 909 sounds. The great thing is, even with copious amounts of processing the909 doesn’t lose its character, on the contrary processing can seriously enhance a 909 in all areas, and of course make it dangerously punchy! Processing can also make the 909 deep, moody, and oozing with vibe!
At Niche Audio we believe the 909 when processed and abused through the right gear takes its vibe to another level! We felt such a909 sample collection was missing – a 909 sample pack lovingly created and saturated with vibe and character, along with user flexibility! That is what we intended…and we believe this collection succeeds in capturing the soul of one of the most legendary analog drum machines ever made, and processed by some of the best boutique hardware around.
Planet 909 is on sale for only $9.09 USD in celebration of 909 day through September 10th, 2021.
