Addictive Drums is built on three essential components of a world class drum studio: superior multi-mic samples of a wide variety of premium drums, full production tools to tweak the sonic qualities of the kit (including envelopes, tuning, insert effects, reverbs, overhead and room mic control), and a full suite of more than 3000 built-in beats and grooves. You'll be able to get up and running quickly and easily, whether you're an experienced drum programmer or an aspiring experimenter.

Addictive Drums can sound extremely realistic, producing true acoustic drums, but it can also be tweaked and manipulated into machine-like kits or weird rhythmic effects. Addictive Drums is unique in its ability to deliver in a wide array of production styles.

Compatible with both Macintosh and Windows platforms (including Intel Macs), Addictive Drums ships in all major plug-in formats (AudioUnit, RTAS, VST). It is fully compatible with every major sequencing host, including Apple Logic, Digidesign Pro Tools, Steinberg Cubase and Nuendo, Cakewalk Sonar, Ableton Live, FL Studio, Mackie Tracktion, MOTU Digital Performer and Apple GarageBand.
