Get ready to unleash a world of rhythm! This amazing collection spans from funk to hip-hop, drum & bass, and everything in between. It offers floor-filling fatback beats that will keep dancers glued to the dancefloor. We've combined a super-tight Pearl Reference kit with the Funked Up MIDIpak featuring a funky drummer. There are not one, but five original '80s drum machines (Simmons SDS-V, LinnDrum, 808, 909, DMX) and matching Reel Machine Beats. Nod your head to stank-face breaks suitable for Fat Boy Slim style big beats or classic Premier era hip-hop. Speed them up for drum & bass grooves. Add digital drums and you can create anything from classic electro sounds to modern Drake or Kendrick-style productions and massive pop hits like Bruno Mars. This collection includes Addictive Drums 2, Reel Machines ADpak, Funk ADpak, Reel Machines Beats MIDIpak, and Funk'd Up MIDIpak. The Reel Machines collection features four mint-condition '80s drum machines and a Simmons electronic drum kit, all recorded on analog tape with top-notch gear. Each kit has plate reverb and room ambience for more sonic options. The Funk ADpak is based on the Pearl Reference drum kit, recorded with fidelity in a top studio and crafted with over 30 production-ready presets for instant use.
Using this drum collection is easy. First, install Addictive Drums 2 on your device. Then, load the included ADpaks and MIDIpaks to access all the beats and sounds. To create a track, start by choosing a drum machine or kit from the collection. You can use the presets provided in the Funk ADpak for a quick start, or customize your own sounds. For different styles, adjust the tempo. For big beats, use the stank - face breaks at a normal tempo, and speed them up for drum & bass. When it comes to adding digital drums, just blend them in to get the desired sound. As for maintenance, keep your software updated to ensure compatibility and access to new features. Make sure to back up your projects regularly to avoid losing any work. If you encounter any issues, check the official XLN Audio support website for solutions.
