Inspired by rock drum mixes popularized in the 60's and 70's, Musical Sampling has announced the release of Boutique Drums "Penny" for Kontakt.
This drum library was created with drummer Brian Scoggin (Casting Crowns) who has curated a kit comprised of boutique drum pieces - recorded at Hey Hey Studios in Griffin, Georgia. They also covered the toms and snare with cloth to dampen the decay/ring-out -- resulting in a tight drum sound.
To address the calling for simplicity, Musical Sampling created a single-page interface that offers a fast and intuitive way to develop customized drum mixes. They have included eight different "baked-in" mix presets that were designed to not only work on their own, but are completely interchangeable between the different drum groups.
