In an unassuming brick building on Sunset Boulevard, in the heart of the bustle of one of Los Angeles' most vibrant and iconic streets, nearly 60 years of musical history have unfolded. To say its walls are a sacred place where legends have walked is not enough: Sunset Sound is a sanctuary. When asked where Michael Ilbert, multi-Grammy Award-winning producer/mixer/engineer and contributor to the EZdrummer 3 sound library, would bring a carefully curated collection of some of the most incredible, unique, and sought-after kits in the Los Angeles studio scene, the answer was simple: it's here.
Michael Ilbert's EZX Signature Series includes two distinct titles: Part 1 and Part 2. For maximum versatility and breadth, both volumes were recorded in separate studios within the Sunset Sound complex and each include their own unique set of kits, MIDIs, and presets. The first part, which you're currently watching, was recorded in the renowned Studio 2, a space trusted by artists like The Doors, Maroon 5, Led Zeppelin, Rage Against the Machine, and many others to enhance some of their most influential works. This EZX, like the two previously released, was designed to cover the entire gamut, from hard-hitting rock to mainstream pop, alternative, and indie. It features three kits, selected, tuned, and prepared by an artist as renowned on the Los Angeles studio circuit as the studio itself: Ross Garfield of the renowned Drum Doctors.
