When it comes to heavy rock, there’s nothing more fundamental than an unwavering wall of powerful drums rolling like a freight train at the forefront of the mix. If you’re looking for solid sounds that you can trust to hold the rhythm section down in any mixing situation of the sort you may find yourself in, this is the EZX for you.
Recorded by acclaimed mixer/engineer/producer Jay Ruston (Stone Sour, Anthrax, The Donnas) and sampled by drummer Jeff Friedl (A Perfect Circle, Devo, Filter), this expansion for EZdrummer 3 and Superior Drummer 3 brings together two rock heavyweights and delivers exactly what its name promises: drums specifically designed for heavy rock.
In total, it includes four unique kits, one additional recorded kit configuration, and several additional snares – all hand-selected to provide a breadth of tones that range from rich, dark, and booming to ringing, tight, and punchy. Additionally, the kits were recorded in a private, high-end studio in the Los Angeles area that boasts a massive sound yet not overwhelming room, making it the perfect choice for loud rock drums that sound thunderous but aren’t drowned out by excessive ambience.
In addition to the sounds, the kit includes a wide selection of ready-to-mix presets designed by Ruston, as well as a basic collection of grooves and fills made by Friedl.
If you want an EZX that’s smoking hot with raw, unadulterated hard rock energy – recorded by two of today’s finest using the finest equipment in a room that simply has hard rock written all over it – this is the EZX for you.
