Have you ever wondered what a drum kit might sound like if you stuffed a microphone into the end of a garden hose and wrapped said hose around the bottom of the kit? Nope, neither had I…. well, until I tried The Drum Factory SDX that is.
Produced as a Superior Drummer expansion by Toontrack in collaboration with industry legend Sylvia Massey (who’s CV is both long and A-list impressive), The Drum Factory is yet another example of why most home and project studio owners buy into the world of sample-based drums. There is almost no way I could image recording drums that sound even remotely as good as these in my own project studio space. The sound epic….
And, yes, one of the microphone options is a mic in a hose pipe…. amongst a selection of other weird and wonderful options that sit alongside a comprehensive and top-shelf collection of more conventional mic choices, all recorded in the fantastic La Fabrique studios in SW France.
