50 custom settings from the man who defined the sound of an era: Bob Rock.
| ADD TO CARTWhile Metallica’s groundbreaking “Black Album” may be one of the more commonly known works in his discography, Bob Rock’s engineering and producing credits stretch all the way back to the late ’70s and include some of the best selling acts in rock history: Survivor, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Mötley Crüe and Bryan Adams, just to name a few. While this collection doesn’t necessarily set out to replicate any specific production in Bob’s catalogue, it sums up more than three decades’ worth of experience working back to back with rock royalty and gives you the broadest possible palette of tools for your mixes.
Expect solutions to common mix issues, guitar and bass tones, vocal settings and much more – not only for heavy rock or metal, but for material across the genres. Welcome to a set of mix tools straight from the hands of the man who defined the sound of an era: Bob Rock.Meet the man himself and get a glimpse of what happened behind the scenes during the session.
While Metallica’s groundbreaking “Black Album” may be one of the more commonly known works in his discography, Bob Rock’s engineering and producing credits stretch all the way back to the late ’70s and include some of the best selling acts in rock history: Survivor, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Mötley Crüe, Bryan Adams and many, many more. In all of his productions, a common denominator is phenomenally engineered and mixed drums. In fact, his work with Metallica and Mötley Crüe may very well have set a new standard as to how we mix drums to sit in a mix. Needless to say, his influence on the sound of hard rock and metal as we know it is monumental. We’re happy to present the first-ever sample library to bear his sonic seal.
Sounds for your EZdrummer 2 or Superior Drummer 3, produced by Bob Rock at The Warehouse in Vancouver, BC.
