Key Features
The Addictive Drums 2: Black Oyster ADpak delivers the authentic sound of '60s pop to your productions in this Addictive Drums 2 expansion. A distinctive and instantly recognisable sound, the Ludwig Black Oyster kit has been specifically chosen to harness the character and tone of early pop and jazz recordings, with a natural tone that's free from any excessive processing or colouration.
Featuring a '60s Ludwig Black Oyster kit, you can achieve rounded, natural and punchy drums that are perfectly balanced through the frequency range that perfectly suit most contemporary rock mixes. Expertly engineered and tuned, you can be sure that your drums will add to the music and not overpower any other instruments, giving you the perfect back-bone to explore your composition. In keeping with the classic vintage shells, a selection of hand-selected cymbals are matched perfectly to create a full-range and smooth kit with a classic and warm sound.
Included are 30 mix-ready presets crafted by industry professionals to immediately add polished and radio-ready sounds to your tracks. Take your sound anywhere from tight and focused to expansive and dirty, capturing the essence of vintage rock with ease. Each sound and preset is entirely customisable through the Addictive Drummer 2 software to sculpt and shape your tones just the way you want to create your unique sonic signature.

XLN Addictive Drums 2 has been elevated with the v2.5 update, delivering both workflow improvements and exciting new features. The software now boasts a sleek, revamped interface designed to keep you focused on your music with its polished, modern look. A standout new effect, Trig Gate, allows you to effortlessly sculpt your drum sound with precise gate action on every hit, no threshold adjustments needed, thanks to the use of internal MIDI drum notes. The new Boost mode for the compressor adds extra punch to your beats with multiband compression specially tuned for drums, giving your tracks more energy and impact. On top of that, the EQ now features real-time visual feedback across all frequencies, making it easier than ever to fine-tune your sound with clarity and precision. Best of all, this update is fully backwards compatible, so all your previous presets, tweaks, and settings will work seamlessly, and it supports every Addictive Drums 2 expansion, including ADpaks, MIDIpaks, and Kitpiece paks.
A distinctive sound that can be heard in a huge range of musical styles from the '60s including Mowtown, classic British pop and psychedelic rock, the Black Oyster ADpak delivers these classical tones with exceptional realism and character. A natural sound with a slight edge of harmonic saturation as a result of vintage analog tape and microphones can be heard all throughout the Black Oyster ADpak, making it the perfect choice for classic rock, pop and even jazz music that was heard all over the airways in the '60s. A small and compact Ludwig Black Oyster kit was chosen specifically for its sonic accuracy, with a ringing tone and natural decay that lends itself for keeping your groove steady, no-frills attached! Classic percussion sounds come in the form of a cowbell, tambourine and claps to add to the pop sensibilities of the revered British pop bands of the time.
Recorded in a world-class studio with expert engineers, the Black Oyster captures the vibe and feel of the records you love through the use of the lively and energetic drum room. Add some room in the sound and watch how it transforms your kit from mono-sounding and small to larger than life, perfectly suited for the emerging psychedelic rock genre of the time.
Crafted by some of the best in the business, the Black Oyster ADpak comes included with a huge selection of production-ready presets to insert the knowledge and expertise of world-class producers in your songs! Not content with the selection of presets available? Customise your sounds and presets through the Addictive Drums 2 engine with EQ, compression, envelope shaping, volume faders and more to curate your sonic signature.
