Renowned synthesist and sound designer Ian Boddy has been producing sample libraries since 1992. This includes award-winning collections for leading sample producers Zero-G and Sample Magic plus patch and sample content for Camel Audio, LinPlug and Rob Papen.

With such a wealth of musical and sound design experience, Boddy decided to release his sample productions independently under the 'Waveforms' brand, which has already released four titles - Airwaves, Beatalogue, Drumalogue and Radiophonica. Waveforms delivers unique and focussed sample packs, all produced using Boddy's collection of rare and vintage analogue equipment.

Fresh from the Zenhiser studio comes a 80's drum kit that will simply blow you away.

The attention to detail on these 80's drum sounds is second to none and literally took us weeks to produce using the same concept and tricks that were used back in the 80's by high end studios and producers. '80's Retro Drummer' is a drum kit that not only sounds like it was created in the eighties but stands up against any modern drum kit.
