#EZDRUMMER 2 HUMANIZE SOFTWARE#
Although the samples included in EZ Drummer aren't great for a final song mix, it is a perfect software package to use during tracking if you are using e-drums or a keyboard to record a drum performance. There is one specific (but not completely intuitive) reason I would recommend EZ Drummer. The expansion packs have much more usable sounds, and I would recommend looking into the many options to find the pack that fits the style of music you are interested in. The samples that come with the base EZ Drummer package are pretty stale in my opinion. The midi files can be easily dragged into the host DAW for sequencing. I think the midi files included in toontrack's products are the easiest to use compared to other products ( BFD2, Addictive Drums, NI Studio Drummer, SSD4, etc.). Once installed, the drum samples can be triggered from e-drums, a midi keyboard, or even from the internal midi library of midi drum performances. Everything about this product really is 'EZ'. Toontrack's installation process is straight-forward (no iLok). There are some pretty good deals offered throughout the year, so I definitely suggest watching the price for a bit if you are looking to purchase it. Toontrack offers a ton of expansion packs that run inside EZ Drummer (or Superior Drummer 2.0), if you want different sounds. It can be used as a plug-in inside a DAW, or as a stand-alone application. Knowing what I know, I would buy this product if I'll need a drum pack.ĮZ Drummer is a sample-playback engine for drums.
Precision and quality of the sound is extremely great, very good sounding kicks, snares and toms, love them. My opinion about the value for the price is great, a very advanced drum tool that incorporates a very cool sound with different time features. The humanizer function allows the user to create higher quality drum patterns that only a real drummer could. You can also add your own midi files to the software or use some of the midi files provided with the product. The fact that this library is based around real samples recorded in New York makes a huge difference due to its quality and real sounding drums. What I really love about this product is the multiple microphone control which gives a better and more advanced perception in space for the listener, the stereo and multi-track routing is also a huge helper. I've been using it for about two years now. I'm getting great performances in creating different grooves, beats and syncopations in my songs using this product. The software works good in its configuration, the level of stability isn't a problem. The typical functions are easy to access, very pleasant design, amateur friendly. The general configuration is quite easy but it requires some time doe to the high size of the product that is sample based.

#EZDRUMMER 2 HUMANIZE PROFESSIONAL#
In general, EZdrummer is a professional tool for recording and editing virtual drums.This drum pack works on MAC, Windows Xp and 7. When editing your track, you can adjust the sound, creating the effect of moving the microphone farther / closer to the drum / cymbal, and make the reverb effect by choosing the room in which the drums supposedly sound. When creating samples, all the rules for recording drums were observed, each element of the drum kit was recorded with a separate microphone in a recording studio in New York. The program allows you to assemble a drum kit from various elements, each of which can be spread out in a panorama, transferred to a separate track, for example, the bass drum and the worker will be separate tracks, then apply the desired effect to each audio track, for example, saturation, compressor, distortion. Thus, it is possible to create a song completely consisting of midi pieces, which will give the effect of clearly and evenly played drums, but you can use the humanizer function to simulate the emotions of a drummer, to convey the emotions of a drummer. The program also has built-in templates in MIDI format, which are created drum riffs, as well as various beatings that can be added to your track by simply dragging them with the mouse to the desired track. EZDrummer is a great VST plugin with its libraries, which is perfect for Cubase 5.1 audio editor.
This VSTi tool allows you to achieve “liveliness” of the drum part, simulating the game of a real person.Ī pleasant sound will surprise many music creators, as the sound is very close to the sound of real drums, and the program interface is very understandable, which allows you to create and edit virtual drums. EZDrummer is a virtual drum sampler that is especially popular among musicians as well as professional sound engineers and producers.
