Grooves will play at the recorded tempo or selecting the metronome button allows for playback at the DAW’s set tempo. The entire groove page is very intuitive and packed with smart features like the ability to double on a groove or even on a single kit piece used in the groove to solo exactly what is being played.ĭedicated controls in the grooves page allow for playback at full, double or half speed. Finally, the last panel to the right provides info on exactly which kit pieces were used in the groove. From there we’re able to view each different type of groove available. The next cascading page shows all the available variations such as HATS INTRO, HATS CLOSED, CYMBAL VARIATIONS, FILL VARIATIONS etc. Full drum kit presets and producer present packs (sold separately) are also available which will load new settings into every facet of SD2 based on the preset.įrom the left, grooves are broken up first by library, then by feel such as straight 4/4 or swing 6/8.
Each individual channel strip has a presets pull down menu which allows easy access to channel presets for Kick, Snare, Room, Hats and Overheads. This is a fantastic time saving feature for switching from the drummer’s to the audience’s perspective quickly depending on the project you’re working on. A great example of this is the STEREO REV button, which allows swapping the full stereo image from Left to Right instantly with the push of a button. The mixer page is packed with features that allow full control over the mix of your drum kit. The Mixer page is where you can also define exactly what amount of direct signal or bleed should be sent to a particular bus. As stated in the manual, each microphone used in the recording session has a dedicated channel strip and can be routed directly to one of the 16 outputs, or sent to any of the 16 available busses.
