Musicians and producers can quickly create realistic, professional-quality drum tracks for virtually any rock, pop or country song— never having to repeat the same drum track again.

* Includes loops for pickups, intros, fills, verses, choruses, bridge sections, and endings
* Includes individual “one shot” samples at multiple velocities for each drum and cymbal
