At one point, ddrums were the electronic choice of session drummers worldwide. This is an entire set, including pads and kick trigger. ddrum sounds are wonderful, usually without effects applied, and the module itself makes a great trigger source from a recording console. Using the pads and the trigger outs on the module results in a wider range of dynamics than midi modules offer, which is another reason why this combination was so popular. There's a wide array of sounds still available for download online, and user sounds can be input using a computer and interface.
Power cord is attached and therefore included but the manual is NOT included...but if needed can be downloaded free from various users groups online.
The ddrum 4 module can hold exclusive Mega Drumkits Signature Series drum sounds recorded by the famous drummers Simon Phillips, Dennis Chambers, Kenny Aronoff and Mel Gaynor in the Galaxy studio in Belgium. All Signature sounds are played by each individual drummer. The drummers use their own typical setup with drums and cymbals. It's their tuning, their choice of drum heads etc. From each session Clavia carefully selected and processed the sounds and tailored them to fit the ddrum4 drum system.
Each individual Signature instrument in the ddrum4 module is built up by a vast number of samples to catch every nuance from the acoustic drum. Whether it's a snare drum sound or tom-tom sound, each instrument will give you what you need throughout the whole dynamic range. The new Signature sounds takes the playing feel of the ddrum4 drum system to a higher level. The ddrum4 sounds are especially designed for drummers that appreciate a more acoustic feel from the ddrum4 drum system.
Thanks to the superb dynamic range and the fast triggering response of the ddrum4 system, the sound of the new ddrum4 Signature drumkits is much closer to acoustic drums than ever before.
