DRUM KITS AND GROOVES
Virtual Drum & Groove Instrument
Enter the next stage of Sonic Reality’s cutting edge drum and groove instruments. The Drum Masters 2 series takes a focus on high-end sample collections done with famous artists, producers and studios to a whole new level. A refreshed range of titles covers all your drum needs whether you’re a producer, engineer, keyboardist, drum programmer or e-drummer. Each work with the Infinite Player powered by Kontakt™ for stand alone use with the Mac and PC or as a plug-in for all major DAWs.
New version 2 features include GM, iMap™, V-Drum®, Performance and Custom mapping modes for compatibility with any controller or midi grooves, an advanced new round robin with alternating hits and more. Audio grooves include a new performance map that allows grooves to be selected and played along side the same kit of that session for seamless switching between midi played kits and real live played audio grooves. The combination of both kits and grooves done this way offers the most realistic simulation of a live studio drum session in your computer.
Whether you’re looking for discrete mic mixing with Multi-track Kits and Audio Grooves or fast-loading stereo V-Drum™ kits with multi-channel outputs or Rex, Apple Loops and Wave grooves played by legendary drummers there’s a Drum Masters 2 title for you.

Drum Masters 2: Multi-Track Kits & Grooves
For new levels of realism in high quality studio drums, Drum Masters 2 Multitrack combines the best of both worlds: Drum Kits and Audio Grooves all in one plug-in. It features discrete 24 bit multi-track Drum Kits mapped for GM, iMap, V-Drum and a new Custom Mode with midi learn for ANY e-Drum Kit. It also has the only time aligned Multitrack Audio Rex Grooves playable from the keyboard that can automatically sync to your host’s tempo! Drum Masters 2 Multitrack allows you to discretely mix the mic channels of both the drum kits and audio grooves of legendary drummers such as Danny Gottlieb (Pat Metheny Group), Jerry Marotta (Peter Gabriel), John Blackwell (Prince, P. Diddy), Nick D’Virgilio (Genesis, TFF, Spock’s Beard) and Ed Greene (Steely Dan).
Drum Masters 2 also comes in a Platinum Hard Drive Edition with over 100 gigabytes of Drum Kits and Audio Grooves.
Sonic Reality’s new Signature Kit series takes fast-loading stereo kits to the next level by providing multi-channel output mixing of each stereo kit piece (now called “STm” kits), built-in effects like convolution room ambience and more. Focusing on “kits only”, this series is ideal for any e-drummers, keyboardists, producers or drum programmers who like to work with midi played kits as opposed to audio loops. Volume 1 is a compilation of legendary studio drummer kits from Steve Gadd (Paul Simon, Steely Dan), Bill Bruford (Yes, King Crimson), Jerry Marotta
(Peter Gabriel), Danny Gottlieb (Pat Metheny Group), Ed Greene (Donald Fagen, Barry White), and Nick D’Virgilio (Tears for Fears, Genesis).
Signature Kits Volume 2 offers additional variety of “STm” kits based on iconic styles like Classic Rock, Funk, Soul, Blues and Jazz as well as samples of signature snares such as the Tama™ Stewart Copeland snare, Yamaha™ Dave Weckl snare, Pearl™ Dennis Chambers snare and more. Also included are drum sounds in the style of legends like Ringo and Bonham with a bonus “hands kit”, Octobans™ and more.
Artist Drummer Packs
Sonic Reality now offers easy expansion titles called “Artist Drummer Packs” which contain kits and grooves themed by artist for those that want a complete set of drum sounds and performance loops of select legendary drummers in the Drum Masters series. Titles come with STm kits and hundreds of audio grooves for the Infinite Player as well as Rex, Apple Loops and Waves. Deluxe Drummer Packs also include the complete Multitrack Kits and Grooves of that artist.
