Product Information

Get Out the Funk and Soul With These Retro R&B Drum Grooves!

This product is a collection of multitrack drum grooves made to be played from Sonic Reality’s Infinite Player. The grooves were recorded on a classic Gretsch soul kit in a medium sized room in a Nashville studio. These grooves and its matching multi-track Motown Soul kit are idea for R&B, Soul, Funk, Pop, Hip Hop, and other styles.

Sonic Notes:

Quote from Dave Kerzner of Sonic Reality about Motown/Soul Kit: "One of the special sessions done in Nashville for the Studio ProFiles series was a recreation of classic Motown and Soul multitracks. When it came to the grooves, almost every nuance from the drums to tambourine parts, foot stomps, claps and snaps were recreated. Since a lot of people often try to sample old Motown, Stax and Atlantic records from the 60's, grooves like the infamous James Brown beats heard in Pop and Hip Hop to Marvin Gaye, Supremes, Stevie Wonder and more... we figured that people might like the opportunity to have legit royalty-free samples of those styles that they CAN use in their music legally as opposed to resorting to just "lifting it" off records. It d be a dream for many to have access to the original multitracks of those sessions to sample and this title simulates that as well! To go along with those grooves or even just to have on its own this great sounding multi-sampled vintage Gretsch kit is a must-have for any classic funk and soul fan."

Easy to Use, Intuitive and Flexible Graphic User Interface!

Drum Masters 2 is a virtual drum and groove instrument with the tools to create the most realistic virtual studio drum session in the computer. Live multitrack Rex audio grooves played by master session drummers and the unique ability to use both kits and grooves together to create incredibly realistic drum tracks!
