SSD David Bendeth Expansion is a preset expansion pack for Steven Slate Drums, containing five drum kits pre-processed by producer David Bendeth. It includes snares, kicks, toms, crashes, a ride, a china and a hi-hat.
This expansion brings drum sounds from producer David Bendeth into Steven Slate Drums. The kits are built from three snares, two kicks, four toms, two crashes, a ride, a china and a hi-hat, spread across five preset kits. Bendeth processed the sounds himself, and his own classic samples are mixed into the top two velocity layers of the live-sampled drums. It requires Steven Slate Drums to run.
The kits are pre-processed by David Bendeth, so the tonal shaping is already in place when you load a preset. The developer describes the sound as the drum sound associated with Bendeth's rock productions.
Bendeth also mixed his own classic samples into the top two velocities of the live-sampled drums. Hard hits pick up that layer, which gives the top end of each hit a distinct character compared with softer playing.
The expansion covers the core parts of a rock drum kit. There are three snares for different positions in a track, two kick drums, four toms, two crash cymbals, one ride, one china and one hi-hat.
The five preset kits group these pieces into ready-to-play setups, so you can audition complete kits before building your own.
