DIRECT, direct microphone only
Voyager Drums were recorded from three different microphone positions with 24 bits and 96 KHz, 5 Round Robins and 16 velocity layers in the Principal Studios near M¼nster, Germany. Finest equipment from SPL, API, Apogee as well as microphones by Neumann, Sennheiser, AKG, Rhode and Shure were used to achieve the best possible results.
You can set individual Attack and Decay times for all three microphone positions. Since the direct signal was recorded in mono you can set your own panorama.
Trigger Samples
The Trigger Sound allows you to enhance the natural sound of the bass drum (also available for snare and toms) with synthetic drum sounds. This way you can create new and exciting drum sounds. The trigger sounds have an individual Delay and Pitch control as well.
Effect Section
The Effect Section was designed for ease of use. The compressor offers a selction of usefull presets. The limiter keeps the signal from clipping. Using the equalizer and the distortion, you can shape the sound to your taste.
The Arranger
The arranger allows you to trigger midi grooves from within Voyager Drums. These grooves will always be in sync to your sequencers speed. Select from 5 different speed presets, each containing 48 straight grooves, 12 triplet grooves and 12 fills. Each groove was recorded in the indicated BPM setting, bringing you a total of 360 individual variations. You can also find the grooves as midi files in your library folder, for the direct use in your sequencer.
