Sonic Reality's New "Infinite Instrument Series" Drum Libraries Announced

Jan 20, 2006

Sonic Reality is pleased to announce a new series of high-end sampled instruments called the "Infinite Instrument Series" which are designed to work with streaming samplers such as Kontakt/Battery, Giga, HALion, EXS and more. The first releases from the series are the "Infinite Drums" collections which are focused on natural acoustic studio drum kits formatted as playable multisamples (no loops). The following three titles are being announced at Winter NAMM 2006.

Infinite Drums Custom
This volume features multi-samped drum kits focusing on top-of-the-line modern studio drum kits as well as famous "signature" drum kits such as the Steve Gadd, Manu Katche, Stewart Copeland, Dennis Chambers, Dave Weckyl and other models from Yamaha, Tama, Pearl and more.

Infinite Drums Vintage
This volume focuses on drum kits from the 70's, 60's and further going all the way back to the 40's and beyond. For that sought-after vintage character and tone, this collection offers an incredible range of sampled drums from brands such as Ludwig, Gretsch, Premier, Camco, Rogers, Slingerland and more.

Infinite Drums Session
This volume includes many of the style-oriented and famed artist kits from Sonic Reality and Joytown Productions' Studio ProFile series. These kits have then been compiled into a single, stream-lined playable drum kit collection.

Infinite Drums titles each have an MSRP of $249 and come on DVDs with over 9 drum kits and 15 snares sampled at 24-bit resolution with top-quality studio equipment and expert engineering for a natural sound rarely found in sample libraries. These titles are designed for the ultimate flexibility for midi keyboard or drum pad playing, drum programming or replacement. The titles feature up to 32 dynamic switch points per key and Sonic Reality's new proprietary alternating two hand I-MAP™ layout for the ultimate articulation control of the nuances of the kit, including seamless snare rolls, ghost notes, chokes and more. Also included are different hit types such as stick, brushes, blasticks and mallets plus mixing control over interactive drum kit bleed elements, mic levels between direct, overhead and room plus more.

Price: MSRP $249/each
