Toontrack – Fields Of Rock SDX

Fields of Rock SDX features seven drum kits and an extensive collection of percussion instruments recorded by multiple award-winning engineer, producer and mixer Tom Dalgety (Ghost, Rammstein, Pixies, Royal Blood) and drummer Mat Hector (Iggy Pop, Gutterdämmerung). 

Recorded at Rockfield, a Welsh dairy farm turned studio that would go on to leave a colossal mark on music history over its fifty-year journey. A pilgrimage site for bands like Queen, Rush, Judas Priest, Hawkwind and many of their contemporaries in the 1970s, the studio became a creative haven where some of the best rock songs of our time were born. 

But even after the heyday of classic rock, Rockfield remains a linchpin in the recording world, attracting top artists from all genres, such as Oasis, Coldplay and Manic Street Preachers, to name a few.

This library aims to capture the essence of genre-defining rock albums recorded in various studio rooms, while adding modern technology, forward thinking and ingenuity that will make your products tomorrow. 

In addition to using all the great vintage microphones and outboard gear available at Rockfield, the library was recorded through 14 channels of hardware tape emulation, recreating the unmistakable, warm and rich sound of tape.

This SDX is not only a nod to the past, a tribute to the greats and a respectful bow to the gods of rock, but also a look into the future. Welcome to a collection of drum sounds for the entire range of rock and beyond.
