Toontrack went to Nashville´s Blackbird Studio to record the ultimate Jazz library but walked out with something far bigger; drums that transcend the narrow confines of a genre and rather define an era - an age of music spanning from Jazz, Blues to Hip Hop and Rock. Meet the Roots SDX™ for Superior Drummer® 2.0, likely one of the world´s most comprehensive drum sample libraries ever recorded.

Having a massive selection of instruments as well as Blackbird Studio´s stock of 1400 Microphones, 35 channels of Pultec EQ, 24 channels of Fairchild compression and hundreds of outboard mic/pre channels including Telefunken, Neve, API, RCA and Chandler at our disposal, the signal chain that the Roots SDX™ libraries were recorded through would leave even the most seasoned veterans in utter awe. And as you can hear from the demos, the result isn´t only natural, warm and inviting, it has an almost seductive magic to it.

Drummer and world musician Roy "Futureman" Wooten heard every single hit and swirl recorded as part of a larger whole, as part of a musical sequence rather than as a solitary, monotonous hit and the result permeates every sample with an intensity and force unheard of before. These sounds incarnate the past, embody the present and at the same time how they will help you shape the sound of tomorrow through Superior Drummer´s endless possibilities.
