A compact selection of aggressive soundtrack drums and cymbals from the Apocalypse Percussion Ensemble, with over 40 drums and more than 100 articulations.

The library ranges from thunderous ensemble and solo bass drums and toms of all sizes, an 8-member snare ensemble and 6 solo snares from 14 inch down to 5 inch, to ethnic drums, hi-hats, rides, crashes, splashes, a hybrid China crash, gongs and Tibetan finger cymbals. Every articulation is deeply velocity-layered with 8 round-robin variations per velocity, captured in a close/stage stereo mic position. Standard presets lay out all drums in a classic keyboard layout, while the Ensemble All preset offers custom key mapping or common drum map presets. In the interface you shape dynamics, room release, attack, transient offset, tuning and velocity response, from a huge hall sound to a dry, punchy studio sound.
