The Classic EZX.

With The Classic EZX., Toontrack. Music is merging the best of
the past and the present to bring your music to the forefront of
today.

The Classic EZX. is a contemporary sounding drum library,
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.

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.

Top Features

The Kits
The Classic EZX. features instruments from three fantastic drum
brands: Yamaha, Noble & Cooley and Craviotto.

The Console
The Helios 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.

The People
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 Unique Mic Setup
Two interfaces and two EZX's in one! The Classic was recorded
using two different setups; one contemporary multi microphone
and one with only four microphones, a so called "4 mic setup".
This setup is what helped shape the unique and organic
production on many big albums of the 70's - a sound that is
making an evident resurgence in the music at the top of the
charts of today.

The MIDI
The Classic EZX. comes with two extensive libraries, played by
Peter Fredlander as well as Chris Whitten himself. Peter's
library is organized 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's library, he's laying
down his patented groove by revisiting some of the greatest hits
of his stunning recording and touring history.
