My favorite between the two is the Craviotto. Snares included are a 14×7″ Craviotto Custom Shop snare and a super-rare 14×6.5″ Tama Bell Brass snare nicknamed the Terminator. Those who know Gretsch understand that drums from the Stop Sign era sound incredible.

The kit used was a vintage Gretsch “Stop Sign” kit. 1 as beefy American rock drums, and I have to agree. I almost forgot - the drums sound incredible in that room.įairfax Vol. Nirvana’s Nevermind, RHCP’s One Hot Minute, Weezer’s Pinkerton, Rage Against the Machine’s self-titled, Queens of the Stone Age’s Rated R, all come to mind. Sound City is the birthplace of so many legendary albums. If you haven’t seen the documentary, watch it. I almost recorded there with my band before it shut down in 2017 - totally regretting that now. Both these packs were tracked at Fairfax Recordings in Los Angeles, CA.įor those unaware, Fairfax Recordings, now permanently closed, was formerly legendary recording studio Sound City. 1 and 2 were obvious choices for my first two ADpaks. Upon purchasing, you’ll get to pick your libraries, also known as ADpaks.įairfax Vol.

If you get Addictive Drums Custom or Custom XL, you’ll get to choose libraries, MIDI packs, and add-ons, as I did. While not a bad thing, I lacked more organic and natural samples in my collection. First, many of the libraries I already owned were more suited to metal and rock production. I love that I was able to choose what I wanted.
