| Concept - 3 Vital Parts |
Addictive Drums is built on three major, and equally important, building blocks.
You really need ALL three of them to get a complete drum production:
|
| Drum Samples |
Samples of the best brands available, in a studio with great acoustics, with a multi-mic setup. Stored in a multichannel format.
|
|
|
| Production Tools |
Mixing
Insert Effects
Reverbs
the Know-How of a sound technician / producer
|
|
|
| Beats & Fills |
The grooves, beats and fills of a good dummer!
|
|
|
|
Addictive Drums offers all this, in ONE easy-to-use plugin, compatible with all the major host softwares out there!
With one click, you can load up a complete drum production!
The settings for the Kit, the Insert Effects and the 2 built in Reverbs are recalled in a split second!
Save your own presets, and organize them in folders for quick access in any project. They appear automatically in the preset menu!

|
| Addictive Drums gives you over 100 presets in diverse production styles such as: |
- Acoustic Roomy
Nice natural "full" sound. Subtle use of compression and eq makes this drum production sit very nicely in music that has an acoustic sound.
- 70's Kit
A dry and crisp muffled kit giving you that instant 70's feel.
- Machine
Can real drums sound like an old-school drum machine!? Apparently yes!
- Funky Pants
Plate reverb, lots of compression and a slight touch of tape saturation add up to a sweet funk preset taking you back to when papa had a brand new bag!
- Live on Stage
Big sound with punchy compression and 2 reverbs. Can you hear the crowd roaring?
- 90s Rock
A very useful preset for that big fat rock-sound. The compressors are set for lots of attack and sustain, and a slight touch of Hall reverb to the snare give the drums a nice feeling of space. Just add your favourite rock guitar solo on top!
So many production styles are covered that you are bound to find something that works with your music production. Even if this is not the case you can easily start out with a preset that is close to what you want, and then tweak your way to a drum production that suits your music perfectly. When you are done, just save the preset, and it will be there for you to recall instantly in your other projects.

Retro is the first ADpak expansion for Addictive Drums and features three classic Ludwig drum sets from the 60s and 70s with cymbals from Paiste and Sabian. The drums were recorded in Studios 301 Stockholm in a big recording room with a rich ambience. Retro expands the Addictive Drums library and allows you to mix and match between the original drums and the new vintage kits. Retro also includes cowbells, tambourines and hand claps.
Retro is great for a vintage sound with presets inspired by classic songs. But you can also use the modern presets for an up-to-date sound full of character. Or turn to the RetroMental soundbank for a chance to hear the Ludwig kits like you've never heard them before. With the Retro ADpak you get over 1300 midi loops and 70 presets that will get you groovin' in Motown, banging your head to booming heavy Rock, and tunin' out to psychedelic Rock'n'Roll!
