Drum Werks VI Features:

• Full Range of Drum Loops and Samples for Blues, Blues-Rock, and Country Rock: All rhythms are aimed for songwriters writing classic blues and country rock tracks. Shuffles, 12/8 patterns, and other swing feels are the focus for all groove feels.
• Comprehensive Groove Folders: Grooves sets are arranged logically and with healthy coverage of various tempos ranging from 50 BPM all the way up to 180 BPM.
• The Finishing Touches/One Shots: We also included cymbal swells, ending ritards, and more. All the “little” things most loop CD’s don’t include but are vital to realistic drum tracks.
• Cohesive Drum Sounds: All loops are taken from the SAME recording session (all grooves, fills, etc. are sonically-matched). You will get all the grooves, groove variations, fills, and one shots to create your next blues and country track and you can mix them with anything else on the disc. Tired of loop sets where the sounds vary from one folder to the next? – or worse, from file to file? Drum Werks VI will take care of that.
• Fully-Sampled Drum and Cymbal Samples: We took the kit used in the recording sessions and sampled it from head to toe! The sample kit section includes multi-velocity samples of all the drums and cymbals recorded. While most loop discs offer only a handful of single hits, we have given you the entire kit: from the softest taps to the most powerful slams, you have it all. You use the Drum Werks VI sample kit to build grooves from scratch or use them to augment any of the 700 loops. This disc gives you the flexibility to do just that.
• Compatible with Drum Werks V: Same session, same versatile drum sound. Only the snare voice was changed for Drum Werks V.
