I am interested in this as a wav pack as i am still on live 6 & kontakt 2. If i purchased this as wav & at some point upgraded live or kontakt can I switch packs to their format for no extra charge?

Same goes for "deep drums" set as the xbass is definatly my favorite drum machine.

Hi,

Syncussion Drums already includes (at no extra cost) sampler patches for the following samplers:

NI Battery, Kontakt & Maschine, Reason NNXT, Halion, EXS24 and SFZ and also an ABleton live pack (.alp file)

The patches were made in Kontakt 2 so they will work in all newer versions of Kontakt if you decide to upgrade. I believe you will need at least Ableton Live version 7 to use the included Live pack.

I hope that helps,

Dan

Top Quality! ... as always from Wave Alchemy. Very cool booklet as well.

Cheers for the generous amount of free samples and good luck with the sales!

Didn't know the Pearl Syncussion SY-1, it sounds very interesting.
One of your demo reminds me of Aphex Twin (but can't remember which song).

...a friendly bump for that! ...GREAT price... a true no-brainer if you consider the quality and quantity you are getting for that!

This sample pack has a nice, different "harmonic" overall feel from the rest of the WA products.
Plus, the taped samples, especially the hats and snares are lovely bonuses too!

Merry Christmas!
