IK Multimedia. Musicians First.The first and only hyper-realistic modeling drum instrument gets expanded with more kits, new cymbals and a free Custom Shop edition

February 24, 2022 - IK Multimedia releases MODO DRUM 1.5, the newly expanded physical modeling drum virtual instrument. It delivers unmatched flexibility for drum customization and the sound quality of top sample-based programs without the huge memory footprint.

 

The companion to IK's award-winning MODO BASS, MODO DRUM 1.5 now offers 13 deeply customizable virtual drum kits and a wider choice of versions to suit everyone's needs, including a FREE entry into the MODO DRUM world.

Leaving Samples Behind
A premiere for the plug-in world, MODO DRUM and BASS utilize raw computer power to emulate physical instruments from scratch. Their sound quality is indistinguishable from a real recorded instrument while adding supreme flexibility and playability, unmatched in any other drum or bass plug-in.

With this method of sound generation, MODO DRUM offers music producers controls for everything from drum skin material, shell depth and thickness, to other drum and performance-specific parameters such as the area where the drum heads are hit. Playing with MODO DRUM is virtually like playing real drums with a real drummer.

Three Explosive New Kits
Entering the MODO DRUM 1.5 "Showroom," users will be astonished by the wealth of kits at their fingertips. Now there are 13 distinct drum sets in total for every style and genre including 3 exciting new kits: SilverBrit Custom and Metal, which IK researched and developed to make MODO DRUM 1.5 truly a 1-stop drum shop for all music makers.

Silver is a 6-piece vintage maple kit, perfect as an all-round and versatile solution for any genre. Its open sound and its tuning capability make it great for pop to rock. It's also perfect for metal and heavier genres using the onboard processing inside MODO DRUM.
Brit Custom is a 4-piece birch kit with a warm and rich sound, ideal for styles like indie-pop and indie-rock. It's coupled with the 2022 cymbal collection that includes: a 20" ride, 18" crash, 16" crash and the new hi-hat 2022. These cymbals are made to cut through a mix without losing warmth and color.
Metal is an 8-piece set that's characterized by a fat sound with a dark color, perfect for genres that need a punchy rhythm section like metal and even more aggressive styles. It's coupled with a new Custom cymbal collection that features 6 custom-made cymbals designed to perfectly match and complete the shell pack's tonality.
