Submersible Music Releases Lonnie Pack I Country Drums For DrumCore
January 1, 2006
Submersible Music has started shipping its new "LonniePack I" DrummerPack, for use with its popular DrumCore software. LonniePack I includes drum
loops, fills and drumkit sounds by noted country drummer Lonnie Wilson,
winner of two "Country Drummer of the Year" awards from the Academy of
Country Music (ACM). LonniePack I is targeted at producers, songwriters,
composers and musicians who need authentic country drums with a variety of
song elements. Like all DrummerPacks, this release comes pre-configured with
metadata information for use with the DrumCore search engine. This provides
quick access to grooves, fills, variations and individual drum sounds.
Search content based on feel (straight, shuffle, etc.), time signature and
tempo. Users can even add their own search criteria (create a new "style"
for example) and enter their own comments for searching. Included with this
DrummerPack are new drumkits for use with DrumCore's MIDI sound module. Use
them to play the included MIDI grooves, for programming your own beats, or
for layering hits on top of the loops. DrumCore also supports dragging audio
and MIDI directly to tracks in applications that support "drag-and-drop"
such as Acid, Audition, Cubase, Digital Performer, Logic, Nuendo, Pro
Tools 7 and Sonar. It also exports/spots audio directly onto Pro Tools
tracks!
Grooves were recorded in 10 BPM increments, since drummers play differently
at different tempos. This provides for the most musical grooves, and helps
preserve audio quality. All audio is 48kHz/24-bit and recorded in
professionally designed studios using state-of-the-art digital (ProTools
HD3) and analog (Neumann, Neve, etc.).
LonniePack I is priced at $79.99, US retail and requires DrumCore 1.5 (Mac
or PC). It is available from the DrumCore website and via most music
software retailers. NOTE: A free 1.5 upgrade is available to registered users.
