Tomโs client list boasts names like Chick Corea, Kenny Loggins, Wayne Shorter, Jean-Luc Ponty, Christopher Cross, and Robben Ford. So when it came time for PreSonus to make a diverse drum library that could serve nearly any need of their user base, Tom was the first call. The result of Tomโs sessions? Brutal rock grooves, sludgy blues, Louisiana-worthy funk, and tasty jazz and fusion licks that will quickly make this library your secret weapon – PreSonus Tom Brechtlein Drums Vol. 1.
River City Studio
Recorded with Studio One in PreSonusโ own River City Studio, the sample library boasts beautiful acoustics of a room designed from the ground up by renowned architect and acoustician John Storyk of Walter Storyk Design Group. River City Studio has hosted such artists as Terrance Higgins, Reba McEntire Band, Royal Teeth, The Blind Boys of Alabama, Nothing More, Mutemath, Charlie Hunter, and Louisiana’s own LeRoux to name a few.
The Loops
Loops include several beats, grooves, and fills from several genres at many tempos. Loops are all available in the same formats as the samples. Genres include: rock, fusion, jazz, blues, funk, and PreSonus’ new double drum kit loops that can be mixed and matched for endless combinations. The beats and grooves played by Tom include several of his signature techniques.
Thoughtful editing for a natural sound
Unique to this drum library, Intros and Fill patterns flow naturally into the groove, so that cymbal sustain carries over a loop start point to create a more nuanced, natural aesthetic. Other loop packs donโt do this, resulting in unnaturally abrupt cymbal and tom cutoff.
