Steinberg have released Simon Phillips Vintage Drums, a new expansion for Groove Agent, available for £68.00.
Simon Phillips Vintage Drums brings you the iconic drum sound of his 1970s and early 80s work. Driven by an aggressive double kick drum and nine different toms, this new Groove Agent expansion lets you harness the legendary sound of the same drum kit Simon used when he wrote history as the drummer for Whitesnake, Judas Priest and the Michael Schenker Group.
For this expansion, Simon Phillips recorded a vintage Ludwig Octa-Plus drum kit from his personal collection at Phantom Recordings Studios in Los Angeles. Using the same techniques and mic positioning as was used on 1970s recordings, he was able to capture the sound of the drums on records which would later become influential in genres like heavy metal.
The amazing sound of this kit is accompanied by 12 Simon Phillips Groove Agent styles for funk and rock music played hard. Each style includes several intros, fills and endings for creating complete drum tracks with simplicity and precision.
Features include:
- 10 GB of vintage drum sounds from Simon Phillip`s rare Ludwig Octa-Plus drum kit
- Recorded at Phantom Recordings Studio in LA
- 12 new Groove Agent styles with different intros, fills, main parts and outros
- The perfect sounds and MIDI grooves for hard rock, funk rock and progressive rock
