Ministry of Rock 2 Virtual Instrument from EastWest Quantum Leap is the sequel to the first Ministry of Rock. The vision behind Ministry of Rock 2 was to create drums and guitars which were even more realistic and more authentic than ever before. MOR 2 was developed to be used on hit records and film scores, without the need for overdubs. A 57GB collection of the best sounding drums and guitars can now be yours made by best minds in the business.
Ministry or Rock 2 uses the Play Engine and was recorded at EASTWEST Studio 1 on three large rock kits from DW, Gretsch, and Ludwig, along with 6 additional snares. The drums were recorded using Top vintage and modern gear from Neve, Neumann, Telefunken, AKG, Manley, Fairchild, Royer, Chandler and Meitner. Three mic positions were used to record the drums (close + room, or close + compressed room) and samples were recorded multiple times for extreme dynamics.
The guitars in Ministry or Rock 2 were recorded on Fender Jaguar, Fender Telecaster Thinline, Carvin 7 String, Baritone, Gibson Les Paul, and Schecter 7 String through Fender, Divided By Thirteen, Marshall, Mesa Boogie, Bogner and Vox Amps. Samples feature round robin, hammer on and pull off legato, sliding legato and dozens of other techniques. Dual channel recordings let you pick a wicked real amp sound or use the direct signal with popular plug-ins. Ministry Of Rock 2 also includes all of the remastered content from Hardcore Bass and Hardcore Bass XP plus an all-new 5 string Musicman Stingray bass with 7000 samples and true legato. Fender, Hofner, Gibson, Silvertone, Rickenbacker, Musicman and Lakland basses were recorded through large bass rigs.
