Meet Your New Drummer

With Strike, nailing the perfect groove is as simple as choosing one of the high-definition kits and telling the “virtual” drummer how to play. You can adjust the playing intensity, complexity, timing, groove, dynamics and much more—all in real time. For more control, you can use the automation features in Pro Tools to polish all of your moves and get the perfect drum performance. Connect your MIDI controller to tweak your performance on the fly using knobs, sliders, drum pads, or anything else that sends MIDI data. And for the ultimate in control, try out the M-Audio Trigger Finger or Axiom keyboards—both include a set of velocity-sensitive drum pads and a host of assignable controllers.

Mix It Up

To help you get the perfect drum sound, Strike includes a built-in 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. Strike’s onboard effects range from dynamics and limiting to reverb and delay, plus specialized tools like bit crusher and filter. The onboard mixer lets you easily adjust the overall level and panning for each drum and route individual sounds to separate mixer channels in Pro Tools software.

Unbelievable Human Feel

Strike’s proprietary real-time performance engine eliminates the mechanized artifacts of typical sample-playback devices to deliver human results with unparalleled realism. Increase the playing intensity and you’ll get a smooth dynamic response in the drum tone instead of audible velocity switches. Change up the feel or complexity and get instant, natural-sounding results. With Strike, you can produce professional drum tracks that are simply not possible with conventional sampling technology.

Comprehensive Grooves

Strike comes loaded with five high-resolution drum kits, each containing up to 12 instruments with up to 300 individual samples per instrument for an incredible range of detail at full 24-bit resolution. Whether you compose soundtracks, pop tunes or just need a drummer to jam along with on your guitar, Strike delivers totally human results with over 1,500 editable preset patterns in popular music styles. Strike also lets you create your own custom patterns with the onboard Style Editor, or by functioning as a drum module in Pro Tools software.
