This Drum Software Lets You Focus on Your Music

Want killer drum tracks? Toontrack's EZdrummer multi-microphone drum sampler software is the answer you've been looking for. Short of hiring a highly-experienced session drummer who's well versed in a broad range of musical styles, EZdrummer is simply the best, most economical way to get totally realistic drum tracks into your sessions. Best of all, you don't need to be a MIDI-programing guru to put EZdrummer to work. With a couple of mouse clicks, you can audition drums, drag and drop loops in to your DAW, and construct complete drum tracks. Keep reading to find out more reasons why Sweetwater Sales Engineers love Toontrack's EZdrummer rhythm software.



Toontrack EZdrummer Multi-microphone Drum Sampler Software at a Glance:
  • Freakishly easy-to-use software interface
  • Incredibly detailed drum sounds and MIDI grooves
  • Easily integrates into your system

Freakishly easy-to-use software interface
True to its name, Toontrack's EZdrummer is one of the easiest-to-use programs of its kind. EZdrummer's user interface is extremely visually oriented, with virtually all of the important functions available right on the surface. It's incredibly intuitive. That means you don't have to dig through menus to find the sounds you want. If you want to hear what a drum sounds like, just click on the drum in the graphic layout. Want to load a groove? EZdrummer's simple groove browser lets you quickly find the rhythm you're looking for, and you can drag and drop grooves right into your DAW for sequencing. There's nothing to it!

Incredibly detailed drum sounds and MIDI grooves
Under the hood, EZdrummer is anything but simple. Each drum sound is made of up hundreds of samples that automatically switch, change volume, and blend together to provide you with perfectly realistic results. What's more, the sounds that come with EZdrummer were recorded at Avatar Studios in New York by an amazing team that included producer Pat Thrall (Glenn Hughes, Black Crowes), engineer Neil Dorfsman (Kiss, Bruce Springsteen, Dire Straits, Sting), and drummer Nir Z, whose credits include Genesis and Joss Stone. In addition to recording the drum sounds, this team also laid down over 8,000 MIDI grooves - and that's just the basic EZdrummer content! There's a huge selection of EZX expansion packs to choose from, so no matter the style, finding the right drums for your music is easy.

Easily integrates into your system
Let's face it, not all music technology seems to get along. One of things we at Sweetwater love about EZdrummer is how incredibly stable and compatible it is. That may be because Toontrack didn't design EZdrummer to require loads and loads of RAM or the latest and greatest processors, but that's just part of it. What's also great about EZdrummer is how easy it is to play with MIDI controllers, including electronic drums that use advanced MIDI to regulate the hi-hat's open and closed position (e.g. Roland's V Drums). This makes EZdrummer an obvious choice, especially if you know you'll want to use it with any kind of advanced MIDI setup.

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
