Discrete Drums
From the president
"This project was born of necessity. When I tried to use drum libraries in my work as a composer/producer, I quickly found even the best sounding ones tied my hands. Others sounded so dreadful that they were useless right out of the box. One in particular was very impressive to listen to, consisting of well recorded, huge pounding rock drums, lots of reverb, very commanding. However. when I used these in a song, they did not work as well as I'd imagined. In some cases the reverbs were way too much, I wanted more kick, a whole host of problems appeared. Not wanting to use a drum machine, I called some old friends, went into the studio, and Discrete Drums was born.
Most users now have the raw computer power to handle a lot of tracks while running some pretty powerful plug-ins. If a project starts to tax your computer, these tracks can be submixed, with or without effects, (saving CPU power), and still be exactly what you want.
Series Two and EarthBeat continued our tradition of implementing new ideas by adding multitrack percussion loops to the multitrack drum performances.
Heavy Mental adds more tracks to the mix (slight pun intended), and Ruff Drumz utilizes a unique track format with distinctly different room treatments.
These collections will give you more options that you've ever had (without hiring a drummer). Up to 16 tracks of rhythm material that you can sculpt any way you like. We are proud to have been the first, it'd just never been done this way before.
We hope you are inspired by the performances of these amazing drummers, and spend many happy hours creating. That's what it's all about - creativity. Enjoy."
-Rick DiFonzo, Producer
