Complete Virtual Studio
The third generation of Superior Drummer is not just a tool for making quick drum sounds, it's a fully-loaded high-quality virtual studio environment that delivers an astounding array of tools and sounds to provide you with an endless list of creative possibilities. Superior Drummer 3 has undergone a complete re-design from the ground up, giving you access to countless new features with an unrivalled selection of unprocessed drum sounds - over 230GB in fact - all in high-resolution. Each one has been meticulously recorded in incredible detail, with an additional 11 separate room microphones in a unique surround configuration to grant you complete immersion in the sound. These can be played back either in stereo, or via surround systems with up to 11 channels. Equipped with 6 full kits, plus additional instruments, Toontrack Superior Drummer 3 is a percussion powerhouse just waiting to be explored.
Sound Library By Award-Winning Engineer
Superior Drummer 3 features a truly impressive core sound library, but perhaps even more impressive is the fact that each one of these sounds was captured in detail by the award-winning engineer, George Massenburg. They were recorded at the Galaxy Studios in Belgium, and the library consists of an extensive 230GB+ of raw, unprocessed sound material, all captured using intricate and precise microphone configurations. This sound library provides you with an astounding sonic palette for which to craft your sound, with truly infinite possibilities.
6 Powerful Drum Kits
On top of SD3's exceptional core library, you can find six beautiful drum kits: Ayotte, Gretsch, Pearl, Premier, Ludwig and Yamaha. The range of kits are diverse, but so are the possible sounds from each kit. Tom shell dimensions range from 6'' all the way up to 20'', whilst optional tool and drum head selection is available for select drum kits. With 24 unique acoustic snares recorded in a whopping 25 different configurations, and 16 acoustic kicks recorded in 27 varying configurations, you truly have a huge array of tonal choice. Toontrack Superior Drummer 3 also features approximately 350 electronic drum sounds that have been expertly sampled from a wide variety of vintage and classic drum machines for you to get your teeth into.
Extensive MIDI Library
Designed to deliver an incredible selection of fundamental groove and fill variations for a variety of musical styles, Superior Drummer 3's MIDI library is also equipped with a selection of dedicated Metal sections, as well as a category labelled 'Extras' which provides you with snare rolls, count-ins, and MIDI files specially designed to be used with brushed samples. The MIDI library consists of 1600 individually (and expertly) played fills, all categorised into common song structure parts. Ranging from 55 to 204BPM, with time signature of 4/4, 3/4, 6/8, 12/8, and 2/4 in both straight and swing feel, SD3's MIDI library has you covered for almost any situation.
Ultimate Control With The Built-In Mixer
Superior Drummer 3 features a powerful mixer, which introduces you to 35 low-footprint insert effects. Convert each channel strip into a complete sound-processing monster, and use options such as route, bus, send, saturate, blend, and mix to get the sound you need. Your sound is in your hands, and the mixer gives you an intuitive interface to achieve rich, powerful sonic characteristics.
Wide Range Of Presets
The third generation of this legendary software is loaded with a wide range of traditional acoustic presets for each drum kit, giving you access to a huge range of musical styles such as hip-hop, metal, electronic, and many more. Each preset has been masterfully crafted by legendary industry professionals such as Andy Sneap, Richard Device, George Massenburg, and Bob Rock. Giving you a little peek into how the masters engineer their drums, this comprehensive collection of mix-ready presets is ideal for a wide range of genres and styles, and gives you the ultimate one-click solution to get a great mix, or as a starting point for creating your own personal sonic landscape.
