DrumCore DrumCore Virtual Instrument
DrumCore provides songwriters, composers and musicians with a complete set of tools for creating great drum tracks quickly across a wide range of musical genres. DrumCore is the only product that combines name-brand drummer content (in both audio and MIDI formats), with a unified search engine to let you search, select and export files into your audio workstation in nothing flat. It even helps you manage your own loop libraries and create your own MIDI drumkits.

Export directly to tracks within ProTools. Drag and drop beats onto tracks in Acid, Cubase/Nuendo, Digital Performer, Logic and Sonar. DrumCore makes finding the perfect beat and getting it into your main audio applications easy.
FIND IT–MANAGE IT
DrumCore has an extensive search engine that makes it easy to find the perfect groove. Browse the library and search for content based on "metadata" such as drummer, style (rock, funk, etc.), feel (straight, shuffle, etc.), tempo, and/or your own comments/notations. Beats are arranged into "GrooveSets," which group associated drum parts for easy song construction. Audition content quickly by clicking on icons that represent audio loops, fills, single hits and MIDI files. Listen to content through your computer's native audio system (using Core Audio, DirectSound or ASIO) or use ReWire to listen via your digital audio workstation (DAW). ReWire allows you to play audio from DrumCore into the mixer section of other applications and allows DrumCore to receive MIDI from those applications. In the DAW application, you can even process the loops with plug-ins to hear how they sound with effects like reverb or compression. ReWire is supported on both Mac and Windows in applications like ACID, Audition, Cubase/Nuendo, Digital Performer, Live, Logic, Pro Tools and Sonar.
You can even use DrumCore to manage your own audio libraries! Simply import any .WAV, AIFF or SDII and tag it with your own metadata.
Furthermore, your DrumCore library can be extended through Submersible DrummerPacks™ which come pre-tagged with metadata and arranged into GrooveSets.
AUDIO AND MIDI - THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS

With DrumCore you get both high-quality audio and MIDI grooves. After all, it's about the quality of the beats, not the technology used to make them.
All audio content is 24-bit, and performances were recorded using state-of-the-art studios for impeccable fidelity. Equipment used was a mix of great analog (SSL 9000 console, Pultec, Neve, Neumann M50) and digital (ProTools HD3).
A software MIDI drum module comes loaded with each drummer's personal drumkit that perfectly complements the included MIDI grooves. Since most of DrumCore's drummers are endorsees for major drum and cymbal manufacturers, DrumCore provides access to these players' individualized drum sounds. The
