Toontrack EZX: UK Pop
Mark Taylor Signature Expansion Pack for EZDrummer 2/3 and Superior Drummer 3
Away to The UK.
An exploration of the iconic UK pop sound.
Arguably, no nation in the world has had a bigger impact on the sound and worldwide development of pop music than the UK.
From the immortal legacy of acts like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones through pioneering groups such as The Police and The Clash to modern-day icons like Adele and Ed Sheeran, the UK has continuously paved the way and reinvented the sound, feel and approach of pop without ever steering too far off from its roots and core.
In fact, for five decades the UK pop scene hasn't peaked, it's been on a constant high.
This is the heritage and sound that the UK Pop EZX explores.
Recorded in London's RAK Studios by acclaimed session drummer Ash Soan (Adele, James Morrison, Ronan Keating) and Grammy Award-winning producer Mark Taylor (Rod Stewart, Cher, Daniel Bedingfield), already from the onset, the UK Pop EZX summarizes three vivid cornerstones of the UK pop scene.
In addition to the four drum kits, extra snares and cymbals that were handpicked for the session, it also comes with seven carefully engineered presets, ensuring that the widest possible palette of sound is covered.
From the tight and deep allround tone of the main 'UK Pop' preset to the intimate and dampened Beatles-esque 'Tea Towels', the rowdy 'Carnaby Street' that hints of T-rex, or the tight and snappy breakbeat-inspired 'Bristol Eyes', the UK Pop EZX covers a broad facet of the British pop wonder.
These are drum tones inspired by nearly six decades of pop mastery, recorded in a classic London studio by two of UK's most sought after professionals.
Past, present and now, all rolled up for use in your future productions.
