Superior Drummer 2.0 "The New York Studio Legacy
Series" is a complete overhaul of the original dfh Superior engine, and
the Toontrack team made painstakingly sure not to lose any of the sound
quality, attention to detail, and musicality of their popular drum
sampler.
Superior Drummer 2.0 has been redeveloped for optimized
use with e-drums with more effective use of sample layers and much
improved loading times. It includes custom MIDI played by Nir Z
accessed through its new customized MIDI engine and arranger, EZplayer
Pro, and has standalone capacity through Toontrack solo. Premium
UK-based software developer Sonalksis has outfitted the Superior 2.0
with a 5-band EQ, high and low pass filter, compressor, gate, and
transient designer filters.
The new interface is reminiscent of
EZdrummer with its simple handling and layout but gives the user layer
upon layer of in-depth features to create the ultimate drum track.
Superior
Drummer 2.0's samples were recorded by Pat Thrall, Neil Dorfsman, and
Nir Z at Hit Factory, Avatar Studios, and Allaire studios, NY. The
three have worked with artists as diverse as Meatloaf, Celine Dion,
Nick Lachey, Sting, Bruce Springsteen, Dire Straits, Beyonc‚, Bj"rk,
Kiss, Joss Stone, Genesis, John Mayer, and Chris Cornell.
