Toontrack The Classic EZX is a contemporary sounding drum library expansion for the Toontrack EZdrummer or Superior Drummer 2.0 Virtual Drum Software.
Toontrack The Classic EZX will sit right in any mix regardless of style, bringing together all that is good about modern recording techniques with the sound of a classic Helios recording console, as known to have shaped the production on albums by bands like The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Who and many others. The Helios mixer has aptly been dubbed the Musician´s Choice of recording consoles and is still after almost 40 years in existence considered one of the best sounding of all time.
Be it the slamming 70´s rock song or the slim and tight contemporary pop that tops the charts of today, the sounds of The Classic EZX will sit right in any mix. The Classic EZX features instruments from three fantastic drum brands: Yamaha, Noble & Cooley and Craviotto.
The Classic EZX was produced by Peter Henderson (Paul McCartney, Rush, Frank Zappa, Jeff Beck, Tina Turner, Ringo Starr) and Chris Whitten (Edie Brickell, The Waterboys, Paul McCartney)
The Classic was recorded using two different mic setups: one contemporary multi microphone and one with only four microphones. This set up is what helped shape the unique and organic production on many big albums of the 70s - a sound that is making an evident resurgence in the music at the top of the charts today.
The Classic EZX comes with two extensive libraries, played by Peter Fredlander as well as Chris Whitten himself. Peter´s library is organised as different songs with variations of 4-8 bar building blocks. Each song also features a Jamtrack of the full song from start to finish. In Chris' library, he's laying down his patented groove by revisiting some of the greatest hits of his stunning recording and touring history.
