The Loop Loft has announced the release of Drum Direktor Cinematik, a virtual instrument that gives you complete, hands-on control over Loop Loft loops and samples.
Are you ready to take cinematic drums to the next level? Introducing Drum Direktor CINEMATIK from The Loop Loft. A revolutionary loop player, step sequencer, drum pad player, effects unit and mixing station, designed for the creative producer.
Drum Direktor CINEMATIK is built on the same framework as our popular FNK-4 instrument, but with a completely new library of loops, sounds and presets geared towards cinematic production. Thunderous toms, mysterious metallic percussion, pulsating undercurrents of rhythm and much more are now directly at your fingertips.
