Chocolate Audio updates The Black Album Drums to v2.0.3 and bundles with Audiority TS-1
Chocolate Audio has announced the immediate availability of The Black Album Drums version 2.0.3 for Kontakt 5.5.2 and up and BFD3.
This product is a tribute to the now classic drum sound of the "Black Album" released in 1991 by the band Metallica. Having managed to track down the same exact kit used in 1991, recorded in the same studio (the former One On One in North Hollywood, CA) with the same mic and recording path and taking advantage of renowned recording engineer Mike Tacci who was assistant on that record, Chocolate Audio went all the way in trying to recreate the sound and vibe of the historic release.
Version 2.0.3 features bug fixes and new presets, including Mike Tacci's signature ones, both for the Kontakt and BFD3 versions.
As a special offer and for a limited time, The Black Album Drums is bundled with the TS-1 Transient Shaper audio plugin by Audiority, a USD 49.00 value. This plugin, available for Mac/PC in AAX, VST and AU formats goes a long way into modifying the attack and sustain parts of a sound using a unique approach:
- Inspired by the drum sound in the "Black Album" by Metallica.
