BlackSmith is a modern metal workhorse with an agressive yet toneful sound.
This kit will lay an unshakable foundation for any metal track, or any other
genre where a tight punchy articulate kit is called for.

BlackSmith gives you several mic layers to blend to your taste, easily taking
the sound of the kit from clean and tight to spacious or dirty with the push
of a fader. Three swappable snare variations help fit the kit to your track.

The kit we sampled is a top-of-the-line Sonor SQ2 Acrylic set, with three snare
options, and classic Zildjian A Custom cymbals. The kit was sampled in
Melbourne's Sing Sing South studio, a medium sized tracking room.

Features:

Multi-sampling: each kit component contains up to 7 velocity layers for
expressive detail and dynamics, and 6x round-robin hits for every single zone
for realistic performances. Check the details at the bottom of this page.

Mic layers: 6x individually controllable mic layers: Close mics, Overheads,
Room mics, Smash mic, Kick Sub, and Snare-Bottom

eKit mode: switch to 'eKit' mode when using a Roland V-Drum kit, or leave set
to 'Keyboard mode' for direct MIDI sequencing. The layout is General MIDI (GM)
compatible.

Output routing: stereo and multi-channel output versions provided.

Sensitivity control: increase the sensitivity of the kit for more intricate
and subtle performances or leave it set to full dynamic range for heavier tracks.

Presets: for quickly accessing different sounds.

Trigger maps: for sound replacement: kick, snare, toms - each with separated
mic layers
