M-Audio's Strike is exactly what you need if you want to easily create, control and produce professional drum performances from within your ProTools environment! This plug-in brings you a performance engine which intelligently adjusts the timbre of the instrument as dynamics change, without producing the typical machine gun effect or audible velocity layer switching. You pick the kit and tell the drummer how to play: Adjust the playing intensity, complexity, timing, groove, dynamics, and much more all in real time.
You can choose from more than 1,500 editable preset patterns based on real recordings, or drum up your own MIDI performances. Strike offers five high-definition drum kits with up to 12 instruments and 300 samples per instrument. Using a proprietary lossless compression technology, M-Audio Strike stores an astounding 20 GB of 24bit audio in just 5GB of space, so you have a wealth of sounds at your immediate disposal.
To help you get the perfect drum sound, Strike includes a built-in virtual mixing console for full control over every aspect of the kit. Change virtual microphone settings, such as room ambience and leakage, then take advantage of dedicated 3-band EQ and two insert effects per channel. This is definitely a highly optimized RTAS instrument for Pro Tools HD 7, Pro Tools LE 7, and Pro Tools M-Powered 7 software.
