Six fun and simple modules
The useful presets, distinct controls, and playful interfaces in DB-30 Drum Butter turn the tedious task of processing drums into a joy. DB-30 is built around its six modules: Boom Shack, Shift, Space, Compress, Saturate, and More. Together, they make it easy to process your drums in myriad ways, including shaping reverb, shifting pitches, adding various compression styles, infusing your sounds with tape-style saturation, and much more.


Sculpt to perfection
With the Target Sliders, Focus Filters, and global Master control section, you can shape the sound of both your various effects modules and the overall sound of your drums. And, just like every other aspect of the DB-30 plugin, they’re an absolute cinch to navigate, so you can add that final touch of Air, Sustain, Attack, and more with the greatest of ease. In sum, DB-30 Drum Butter is usable with any major DAW and helps you achieve ideal drum sounds for everything from music mixes to sound effects for films and games.
Boom Shack-alaka!
Sweetwater producers feel that the Boom Shack and More modules of DB-30 Drum Butter warrant a special call-out. What puts the "boom" in "Boom Shack" is the addition of low-end depth to your drums, making the kick drum and floor toms sound especially beefy. The Shack component, however, lets you blend various noises with your snare and hi-hats to ensure they really cut through when needed. Finally, the More module lives up to its name by adding more perceived loudness, harmonic complexity, or subtle limiting to make your drums punch harder than ever before.
