Drums of War 2 is the newest member to the cinesamples percussion
family, and its parents are beaming. Following in the scope of the
original Drums of War this new volume takes a different approach to
achieving massive-percussive impact. Whereas the paramount concept
of DOW 1 was recording huge orchestral drums in a huge space this
time we used specific instrumentation/production techniques to
achieve our result. DOW 2 contains entirely new sample content and
entirely new instruments . those which we have never sampled before.
The foundation of this library being the mighty taikos.
The hallmark of this library lies within the recordings. DOW 2
utilizes a combination close/stage mix with wonderfully rich
character . a driving, powerful tone. If you could use one word to
describe this sound it would most certainly be .tight.. But the
real magic lies in whats going on in the stereo field. DOW 2 uses
double, triple, and quadruple tracking . mapped down to one sample
and therefore one key . allowing you to trigger this labor intensive
studio-process which a single keystroke. Aside from being an
ultimate timesaver, its also like having a renowned professional
percussionist and mixer sitting in on your track. Each sample
contains that delightful mini-flamming (without phasing) from the
percussionist and that ultra-balanced wide panorama from the mixer.
If you like to construct your own layers we.ve made the solo patches
available too.

All DOW 2 percussion was sampled in 24/48 with the best gear, in a
fantastic Los Angeles studio, by one of Hollywood.s most in-demand
percussionists. Everything recorded with 10xRR and up to 10 velocity
layers.
