What Frank Zummo Signature Expansion for Trigger 2 Is For
This expansion brings Frank Zummo's hybrid acoustic-electronic punch to the Slate Trigger 2 plugin. It's ideal for enhancing, replacing, or layering your drum takes, adding cohesion to programmed drums, or modernizing rock and pop punk kits without losing the natural feel of the performance. Producers can choose between raw sounds to shape, pre-mixed presets, or "radio-ready" samples for faster delivery.
Main Features
Three Complementary Sound Approaches
Raw: samples captured with precise mic placement, untreated, perfect for your own processing chains and tonal color. Mix Ready: already balanced by Steven Slate Audio, they slot immediately into the mix with the right amount of processing and effects. Producer Ready: crafted by Curtis Douglas, they combine the kit's character with modern elements for choruses that hit hard.
Articulations and Natural Play
The library includes rarely sampled details like ride shoulder hits and cymbal stacks for more lively transitions, accents, and patterns. The whole set is designed for seamless integration into Trigger 2, with credible dynamics and kit coherence across snares, kicks, and toms.
Versatility of Styles and Workflow
Whether mixing a multi-track session, replacing a weak take, or seeking a modern signature for a single, this expansion offers the necessary flexibility, from advanced sound design to ultra-fast "drop-in" solutions.
