Metal Essentials Vol.1

$30.00

Essential Drum Grooves for Power Metal, Prog Metal & Death Metal.

Overview

Metal Essentials Vol.1 is a collection of must have grooves if you are making music in the Progressive Metal, Power Metal or Death Metal genres. With over 260 different grooves, you can stop wasting time trying to figure out how to write great drum parts and focus on everything else you need to do to make a great song.

Metal Essentials was designed to allow songwriters to quickly create drum parts fit for most situations. They can be used as the final drum parts for the song or as a blueprint for your drummer to jump off from.

All grooves and fills were performed and captured by session drummer Mazen Ayoub on a Roland V-Drum kit to ensure you get the realistic-sounding drums your music deserves.

Combined with Extinction Level Event, it makes what is already the most realistic drum library on the planet even better with the touch of a world-class drummer.

NOTE: This MIDI pack only contains the MIDI files, no sampler/library is included. The MIDI files contained are compatible with all popular third-party samplers.

PRISM is the best IR loader I’ve used because it does so much more than just that. It provides everything I need to craft unique tones while tracking or mixing. The GUI and ease of use make it my go-to. The IR selection is unbeatable in my book.

I can’t imagine not using PRISM. The moment I loaded it up the first time and realised that everything I needed was there, I knew PRISM was the final IR loader I was ever going to need. The IR cloud storage is genius-now I can load ANY PROJECT at any time, and my IRs will be there. No more lost IRs and then trying to remember what IR I had in the session… PRISM has completely replaced all of the other IR loaders I used to use… and I don’t see any reason in the near or distance future why I’d need any other IR loader than PRISM. I love it!
