EZX THE BLUES
Toontrack Blues EZX is the company's 17th EZX expansion pack for EZdrummer or Superior Drummer and features two vintage kits and plenty of extras to deliver Blues drums that range from the old school to the modern.
The two complete kits – a 1970s Gretsch and a calkskinned Swedish Levin set from the 1940s, are complemented by contemporary Paiste and Sabian crashes, vintage Zildjan A and K series cymbals as well as extras such as a suitcase and a set of calfskinned tambourines.
All the instruments in the Blues EZX were handpicked and in many cases road-worn by the sampling drummer himself – Hans Lindbäck – a Blues musician with more than half a century´s worth of experience.
The result is an amalgamation of new and old; warm and characteristic sounds that cover the whole range from old school to modern, from dry to ambient.
