Greetings all!

Soundiron is thrilled to announce the release of High School Drum Corps v2.0! This 2.0 upgrade adds a ton of new control to our classic marching drum line percussion library in a sleek new user-interface. Among the new features is our Megamixer system, which lets you custom build your own ensembles, with independent drum selection, strike position, volume, panning, tuning, key-mapping and more for each articulation. The ensemble and solo presets feature our Ubberpeggiator system, with new EZ-roll mode and of course, we've included complete sound-shaping, tone and convolution reverb controls to complete the package.

The upgrade to the new 2.0 version is free for all existing owners of High School Drumcorps - including those who originally ordered it from Tonehammer. It was also included in Tonehammer Composer Bundle #0, Composer Bundle #2 and also previously titled "Marching Band (wet/dry)" and "Tonehammer Drumcorps". If you're an owner and haven't received your update email, just let us know.

If you're new to the High School Drum Corps library, it's available right now for only $39! Check out the demos:
