ML Sound Lab has released ML Drums Grit, a new expansion pack which adds “a huge-sounding full drum kit”.
According to ML founder Mikko Logrén, the samples were recorded at Finnvox B-Studio, “the best studio in Finland …as if we went to Abbey Road”.
He describes the studio as a very good space with real echo chambers.
The featured kit is a Gretsch Drop G (1979 – 1981) with 13″, 16″ and 18″ toms, augmented by a Gretsch Bell Brass 14″x6.5″ snare and a Pearl Masters 22″ kick.
The Zildjian A-Custom cymbal array includes 14″ hats; 18″, 19″ and 20″ crashes; and an Ultra-Hammered 19″ China.
The drums were recorded with some of the most sought-after mics, including Neve 1073s/1081s, Pultec and API EQs and the UREI 1178.
“And they all just sound so amazing,” he adds.
The pack is on offer at a launch price of €29,99.
