The Musicrow Group releases Drum Queen

The Musicrow Group has released Drum Queen, a virtual drum machine that produces purely synthesized sounds. Based on a sophisticated synthesis engine and using a variety of synthesis techniques, Drum Queen is able to produce a wide range of percussive tones.

Drum Queen is built of 10 advanced synthesizers, each of them specially designed to produce a specific drum sound. It makes an extensive use of velocity to modify the sound timbre i.e. a harder hit can sound very different then a softer one, and the rhythm is much more dynamic and natural.

Main features:

• Enhanced control of instruments' sound. All sounds are fully programmable.
• 75 Drum Kits included.
• 12 percussion sounds per set.
• Each drum tone has a separate sound generator.
• Subtractive, additive, FM, and physical modeling synthesis techniques are used in building the drum sounds.
• Digital distortion and analog saturation are part of the synthesis process.
• Velocity changes the sound timbre to add a natural feel to the instruments.
• Separate output for each instrument.

Drum Queen is available as a VST instrument plug-in for Windows and costs $49.95. A demo version is available.
