What Addictive Drums 2: Custom Is For
Addictive Drums 2: Custom is a virtual drum instrument designed for music production in the studio. It allows you to build your set by precisely choosing the content that fits your needs: complete kits to define a sonic identity, MIDI beats to speed up writing and arranging, and additional kit elements to refine your palette (snare, kick, cymbals, percussion, etc.). It's an ideal solution for producers who want a consistent and flexible drum sound without being limited to a single pack.
Main Features
A Collection That Adapts to Your Aesthetic
The "Custom" concept lets you compose a set of content that reflects your style: you select 3 ADpaks (drum kits), 3 MIDIpaks (patterns and variations), and 3 Kitpiece Paks (individual instruments). This approach is perfect if you navigate between multiple styles (rock, funk, metal, pop, indie, urban music) or if you're looking for an unusual combination for original textures.
MIDI Beats to Save Time Without Losing Groove
With the MIDIpaks and the included Core MIDI library, you have a base of grooves to quickly build a structure: verses, choruses, fills, and variations. You can start from a realistic and musical performance, then adapt it to your arrangement (dynamics, placement, intensity) to fit your production.
Kitpiece Paks: Precision in Choosing Elements
The Kitpiece Paks allow you to fine-tune your set down to the smallest detail. It's the ideal tool to replace a snare that's too bright, add a more massive kick, or complement a kit with a cymbal that has a different character. The result: a drum kit that integrates better into the mix and strengthens your track's identity.
The Included Addictive Drums 2 Engine
The pack includes the Addictive Drums 2 engine, which centralizes kit loading, element management, and groove utilization. You start with a solid foundation for efficient production, whether you work from MIDI programming, a master keyboard, or an existing arrangement.
