PUNCHY PRODUCTION-READY GROOVES

BUTCH VIG DRUMS comes packed with heavily processed sounds. Created by a true production master, the instrument allows you to lay down heavy rhythms for your tracks, fast. Play beats in live using one of the curated kits, or choose from a selection of built-in MIDI patterns, which you can edit by dragging and dropping into your favourite DAW. Dial in effects to give them even more flavour, for drums that work in a variety of styles.

Customize your drums sounds from the Kit page. Swap other samples in and out, whilst adjusting pitch, velocity and more whilst toggling 4 insert effects.
Customize the effects chain of any preset with the Effects Editor. Quickly select from a range of powerful KONTAKT effects using the dropdown menu, or change the order via drag-and-drop.
Quickly generate grooves with a selection of 16 rhythmic patterns for every kit, which can also be edited in any DAW via MIDI drag and drop.
Edit the assigned macro controls, control parameter ranges, change macro mappings and create your own custom controls from one dedicated page. The coloured macro dots give you visual feedback on your mappings for maximum ease of use.
The main page of the instrument gives you a simple interface designed to help you focus on playing. Quickly tweak sounds using the six assignable macro knobs.

INSIDE THE RECORDING PROCESS

The drum sounds were recorded at United Recording’s iconic Studio A in Hollywood using a blend of old school studio techniques and new school tweaking. They were then given Butch’s unique processing treatment, running through a bespoke selection of analogue and digital preamps, compressors, stompboxes and more at his home studio ‘GrungeIsDead’.
