Get groovy with BOOGA ROCKET DRUMS, an inspiring and highly original Kontakt drum kit.
To create this unique instrument, we sampled a custom drum set made of two jazzy toms, a big retro kick and an expressive piccolo snare. A selection of cymbals, percussions (bongos, cowbell, claves, shakers, tambourines, claps and sticks) and bonus original sounds and playing technics (sticks on the side of toms, stacked fx cymbals, tambourine on hi-hat…) provide lots of extra colors and rhythmic possibilities!
Each drum, cymbal and percussion was expertly multi-sampled using a great minimalistic combination of two microphones to capture the whole kit: A mono overhead ribbon (Voodoo VR1) provides punch and smoothness, and a vintage AKG C451 in a ‘knee’ position gives plenty of crisps details. The resulting sound is direct, punchy and crisp, with minimum room ambience.
An intuitive user interface lets you fully customise the sound by using filters, pre-programmed effects (compression, EQ…) and a fantastic selection of 26 custom reverbs.
6 new IRs were added to the reverb menu. These new Impulse Responses are:
- Basement: a lively large room
- Nitro Boost: a very short, punchy and explosive reverb
- Retro Slap Back: a mono vintage delay
- 80s delay: wide and bright short delays
- Crystal FX: short reflections with a cool filtered effect
- Infinity: a huge plate with extra long decay
All of these new files are directly taken or adapted from the fantastic catalog of IRs from FLO AUDIO. If you are looking for IRs for your productions, make sure to check FLO AUDIO’s products: top quality, very original stuff, and great prices. Highly recommended!!
