Virtual Instrument : Review : Toontrack EZDrummer - pcmusicWe've published a new review in our article section : "EZDrummer, virtual drumming made easy"

As says Babaille, our reviewer : "This plug is one of the easiest to use and it offers an excellent sound quality. Kits are well detailed, complete and original, even if it's a bit annoying to wait for long seconds while they are loading.

It's power relies in its simplicity, its ergonomy, in the sound quality and versatility of the drum kits, in its expansion abilities and the possibility to use its MIDI patterns as starting points in our favorite sequencer."

Misc : Primacoustic Stratus - pcmusicPrimacoustic has announced the Stratus, an attractive 'above-console' acoustic cloud intended to absorb unwanted early reflections, flutter echo and control resonance in the critical mix position.

Designed to be quickly constructed on site, the Stratus comes as a complete kit with a 2" thick, 24" x 48" high-density 6lb per cubic foot acoustic fiberglass panel that is encapsulated in a micromesh and then resin treated around the edges. The panel is then covered in an acoustically transparent fabric. Two light-weight aluminum outer rails are bridged together with 'L' shaped beams and the device is suspended using wire above the console. Stratus clouds are meant to be clustered in groups to span the width of the console to create 'cloud formations' and angled to vary the air space between ...

Virtual Instrument : Free Clapbox for Ableton Live 7 - pcmusicPuremagnetik has released Clapbox, a free add-on pack for Ableton Live 7.

Clapbox is available for download at :
