uJAM Virtual Drummer BRUTE v2.1.1 WiN

In a nutshell: BRUTE is the Virtual Drummer for you, if HEAVY 2 is too Metal-ish and SOLID 2 not rocking hard enough.

Punchy, crisp character
What makes BRUTE special? First and foremost it has been designed, recorded and processed to do one thing really well: Compete with layered walls of distorted guitars while maintaining character and detail. This was a tricky challenge... The solution was to record with three different sets of microphones that emphasize different aspects of the drum sound.

Click/Smack
The vintage Sennheiser MD21 from the 1960s emphasizes the attack transients. The source signal was processed with a Manley Voxbox.

Grit/Dirt
Vintage tube and ribbon overhead mics. This is where the character is captured. All the organic noise and resonances that give a warm, coarse and natural quality.

Clean/Nice
Modern high-spec Schoeps microphones that capture the sound 'as is'. With as little colorization and distortion as possible. For an expensive and glossy character.
