Arbiter Gets Addicted: XLN Audio Addictive Drums to make a noise in the UK
Addictive Drums is a Complete Drum Production Studio featuring extremely high quality drum samples of the most famous drum kits (multi-mic setup), production tools — mixing, insert effects, reverb, and pre-made grooves and fills.
Arbiter’s Bryan Borcherds says, “We installed Addictive Drums and were instantly impressed. The sonic quality of the samples, the production possibilities, and ease of use is extraordinary’. He adds, “For us Addictive Drums is a very exciting product, and we look forward to future quality releases from this young, talented company’.
Addictive Drums is compatible with both PC and MAC, and as VST, AU, and RTAS within hosts.
Shaping the basic sound is easy within AD’s sampler section. Controls for volume and pitch (with envelopes), levels (adjust balance of Close, Overhead and Room levels of each Kit-piece), and filter (cut the low end on hi-hats for example) means you can do anything from slight tweaking to major reconstruction of the sound.
12 mixer channels, 52 insert effects and 2 reverbs are at your disposal, giving you the freedom to create just about any drum sound you’ve ever heard. And then some!
Everything is quickly accessible; no hidden menus get in your way. See it, tweak it, move on. Drum production has never been this easy, and even our pro users agree that Pro should not equal “impossible to understand”.

XLN Audio Addictive Drums will be available in the UK in early March at a UK SRP of £149.99 inc VAT.
