The second expansion pack (SDX) for Toontrack’s virtual drum software, Superior Drummer 2.0, has been announced. The Metal Foundry contains, as you might have guessed, drum samples suitable for use in rock and metal music.
Metal Foundry users can build a virtual kit from a choice of 12 different kick drums, over 40 different toms, 15 snare drums, and probably enough cymbals to sink a small fishing vessel. As with the all the Superior Drummer 2.0 sound sets, there are a range of range of mic choices, too: two sets of stereo and mono ambience mics; two sets of overheads; a ‘snare trash’ mic; three choices of close-proximity snare mics, and a range of kick-drum options, all of which can be mixed using the Superior Drummer user interface.
To create the SDX, Toontrack employed drummer Tomas Haake (of Meshuggah fame) and seven colossal drum kits to compile an incredible 300,000 individual samples.
The expansion pack costs £125/$179 and requires Superior Drummer 2.0 to be installed on the host machine. Obviously.
