Every time Heavyocity releases something new I’m eager to see what they have been up to. I hold them in high regard when it comes to creating interesting and good sounding Kontakt libraries. Master Sessions (MS from now on) is apparently what seems to be a new series from Heavyocity. First in the release line we have Ensemble Drums which is available as a “Kits” library or a “Loops” library as well as a collection of both. This review is about the Master Sessions Ensemble Drums Collection. Ensemble Drums – Kits Lets take a look at the Kit part of the collection first.

There is what Heavyocity calls “Organic versions” as well as “FX Versions” of the Kit. Download Save 100 Mtx Mototrax Pc Game. The kit in itself is the same, it’s just processed a bit different among the different patches. There are 5 menu patches (containing the full kit), 7 single patches and 19 FX versions. Also, for each patch there is a “HI RAM” version as well.

Let’s take a deeper look at the “Ens Drums Menu (Organic) – HI RAM” patch. It weighs in at roughly 426 MB RAM. It has two different bass drums, three toms, a snare and an extra “click kick”. In shear numbers it doesn’t sound so special but when you begin to pound the keys it sounds awesome. Yes it’s missing a hi hat and some other stuff to be called a drum kit but it doesn’t matter, it’s not the focus of MS Ensemble Drums. What it does very well is to add a whole lot of body and SLAM to your palette.

Each of the sounds have been recorded with three different mics, you can think of them as close, stage and hall. Each of the sounds can be positioned on a virtual stage and this is where you place them in your mix. Beginning Chapter Books there.

Far away on the left? Since the drums in the ALL patch all are mapped to two adjacent keys each you can easily setup one that is closer and one a bit further back in the mix. Since you are given control over the mix of this three mics not just in level but also in stereo placement and pitch (yes you can pitch the far mics up 4-5 semitones for a kind of punchier sound!) as well as separate three-band EQ for each microphone position there is actually little need to have anything but a stereo out from this kit.

For those of you familiar with other libraries from Heavyocity I’m happy to say that yes, the Punish knob is available in MS Ensemble Drums as well. This button alone does about 30% of the sound, no really! Want a dynamic, nice sound? Don’t touch it (well maybe just a tiny bit? Download Crack Need For Speed Rivals No Origin. ).

Want a bit grittier and a more in-you-face sound? Put it at 50%. Want to make that famous drum sound from “In the Air Tonight” jealous? Turn it up all the way! Depending on the track you’re working on this button can help you set the atmosphere with a simple little twist. What it does?
