In this EZX, drummer Dirk Verbeuren (Megadeth) and engineer Chris Rakestraw (Megadeth, Deftones, Parkway Drive) have teamed up to bring you the ultimate metal expansion for EZdrummer 3 and Superior Drummer 3. It features three unique kits, a multitude of snares and kicks, and over 30 cymbals, all perfectly recorded in one of the world's most renowned hard rock and metal studios: One On One's Studio A in Los Angeles. With its massive, warm, and vibrant sound, yet equally compact and aggressive, this room has all the qualities to shake things up in a way that makes it sound like it was purpose-built for hard-hitting metal drums. This is reflected in the multitude of landmark albums recorded here, including Megadeth's "Rust in Peace," Metallica's "...And Justice for All" and "Black Album," Dream Theater's "Awake," and Testament's "The Ritual." Each of the three included drum kits has a distinct sound. One features Dirk's current touring setup, another from his time with Soilwork, and the last has been carefully selected to deliver a completely contrasting sound and feel. The result is a balanced and eclectic palette of kits, ranging from powerful, aggressive, and punchy to powerful, deep, and warm.
