The QuickPack features a 125th Anniversary Limited Edition Rock Legend Gretsch kit recorded by Grammy nominated recording engineer Rail Jon Rogut (Ry Cooder, Meshell Ndegeocello, Michael Jackson). Limited to a production of only 125 kits worldwide, the Rock Legend kit is a true collector's item. Formatted for Fxpansion BFD2 and BFD Eco, the QuickPack includes 25 presets in different genres.
The Quickpack was tracked on a classic Neve 80-series console and includes 1 Kick, 1 Snare, 2 rack Toms, 2 floor Toms, a Crash Cymbal, a China Cymbal, a Ride Cymbal and a Hihat. The Overheads were recorded using 2 Telefunken ELA M 251s while the rack Toms were tracked with AKG C12As. Telefunken ELA M 251s were also used on the two floor Toms. A pair of Neumann M49 were used on the Stereo Rooms and in BFD2 the Amb3 channel features a Mono Room which was an EV666 extremely compressed through a Fairchild 670 two channel compressor.
