It can even be used in a live setting via keyswitching.

The entire pack comes in at a nominal 440MB and requires Omnisphere 2.6 to operate. It’s on sale for $29.95 until July 1st, 2020 but the regular price is very reasonable as well at $39.95.

Another expansion to EZDrummer 2 and Superior Drummer 3 brings a number of latin percussion instruments to your productions.  The pack was recorded New York City’s famed Sear Sound Studios by legendary percussionist Richie Flores.

Included are samples of many traditional Latin instruments including cajon, congas, bongos, shakers, blocks, cowbells, and many more. Most have multiple variations as well. If injecting some Latin flair is what your productions need this pack has great value for only $89.

    I immediately met a healthy person who told me that they hate singers. He was also kind of honest, considering he just met, and I love them, so I asked him what he hates about singers. He told me a story about a singer he had written a few years ago
