2.1.2 Percussive Kits
Containing
well over 200 deeply sampled percussion sources, and over 500 individual sin-
gle shot elements, these presets provide playable kits, single shot hits, and tweaked drum-
like kits in a wide range of styles. These kits are particularly useful for creating unique
percussion for your compositions. This category is comprised of four different types of pre-
sets.
Round Robin Kits with Mixer: These presets are comprised of deeply sampled percus-
sion sources, and are suitable for intricate performance based beats. You can quickly
place your percussion in the stereo field and mix the three microphone positions us-
ing the included program windows.
Single Shot Kits with Mixer: These presets are comprised of single-shot hits and im-
pacts. These are suitable for emphasizing beats, adding extra impact, and heighten-
ing emotion at specific points in a composition. You can quickly place the hit in the
stereo field, mix the three microphone positions, and equalize and affect the sound
using the three included program windows.
Single Shot Damage Kits: These presets are comprised of single-shot effected drums,
arranged in the style of a drum kit. These are suitable for performance-based drum-
beats with glitchy, effected, tweaked, sounds. You can stutter, further effect, equalize
and filter the sounds using the included program windows.
Hybrid FX Hits: These presets are comprised of single-shot hits, impacts, and tails.
This category also contains the signature “Damage Hits” preset. This preset contains
one-shot Impacts and Tails that can be controlled independently via the modwheel.
These hybrid hits are suitable for trailer-like stings and transitions, or emphasis on
specific points in a composition.
