MPC Samples and Pad Pimps have released The 1977 Session Kit, an expansion 1977 based on the Premier B304 Elite drum kit. It’s available at the intro price of £22.49, increasing to £29.99 after the promotion.
Pad Pimps are proud to announce our latest acoustic drum kit expansion, the 1977 Session Kit, a virtual session drummer inside your MPC featuring a fully multisampled studio drum kit, ready-to-play ‘snapshot’ kits covering a wide range of musical styles and a MIDI library packed with grooves and fills to give you an instant starting point for any beat!
The 1977 Session kit is built around a stunning 1977 Premier B304 Elite drum kit, with over 45 different articulations recorded with up to 12 velocity layers for the most realistic sounding acoustic kit ever built for the MPC and Akai Force.
The kit itself comprises of a kick, three toms (13”, 14”, 16”), a ride, crash cymbal, china cymbal, hi hat and shakers/cabasa along with two different snare options (a Ludwig L402 snare and a Ludwig Black Beauty), with each instrument presented with a number of different articulations to capture the different ways each drum can be played.
