The Recording Studio:

All drum recordings were made at the legendary Horus Recording Studio in both Recording Room A and B.

Recording Room A features a traditional warm vintage sound. Its different surfaces range from brick to glass and wood, making it ideal for warm drums.

The power of drums is experienced in Recording Room B. Built especially for this purpose, its open and punchy sound gave heart and soul to countless rock records.

The main control room features a 48-channel ADT inline console, a Studer A 827 24-track tape deck, and an exquisite collection of classic outboard gear from companies such as Universal Audio, Crane Song, Avalon, Manley, Summit Audio, Lexicon, and Eventide.

Recording Specs:

Each loop in this collection was captured by seasoned professionals using top-shelf studio gear, dialed in for clarity, warmth, and punch. Everything was recorded in 24-bit / 44.1 kHz, lightly processed with EQ and compression so it sits right in your mix from the start. Tempo information is included.

Every drum session gives you a deep stack of loops that naturally lock together or stand strong on their own. Build full arrangements in minutes or grab a single groove to kickstart an idea. However you work, these loops are designed to keep your flow fast and your sound tight.

Your creative freedom is paramount. Pro Drums Blues is 100% Royalty Free. This means you can use the sounds within the scope of the selected license without paying additional usage-based fees.
