Get Your Jazz Groove On
Vienna Symphonic Library brings their considerable sampling and software development chops to the art of jazz drumming with Vienna Jazz Drums. VSL not only recorded single hits and many different playing techniques and articulations, but they also captured the sonic variety and responsiveness inherent in each drum and cymbal by striking them in numerous places and with various velocities. Take it from Sweetwater - your performances come alive as you play from the center of the drum head to the rim by simply moving your mod wheel. And the ride cymbal - all important in jazz - is given special attention in Vienna Jazz Drums. Whether your real-life inspiration is Elvin Jones or Antonio Sanchez, you'll find Vienna Jazz Drums absolutely authentic for Latin, swing, bebop, post-bop, ballads - and just about any other jazz style.
