Spitfire Audio Adds Laboriel Jr To Originals Series

Sir Paul McCartney’s long-time touring drummer, Abe Laboriel Jr, has captured a bespoke drum kit at Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles for this selection of highly detailed and deep sampled library of single hits, and is accompanied by a collection of 10 loop presets. “The room is integral, a major part of the sound. It’s the perfect size; the decay is really lovely, and drums have great attack there, but a lovely warmth as well”, says Laboriel.
The 10 loop patterns give users options between 60 and 120 BPM.

The kit offers single hits with up to eight velocity layers and round robins across a wide dynamic range, and allows control of expression, dynamics, EQ, compression, and ‘large room’ or ‘medium hall’ reverb options. Four snare types are also available and the kit is MIDI-mapped, split and duplicated across the keyboard allowing two handed performance.
Three microphone positions allow ‘Close’, ‘Room’, and ‘Hype’ which used an Overstayer 8755DM to add crunch.

Spitfire Audio’s ongoing ORIGINALS series sample libraries are available at an affordable prices, and lend their sounds to suit a range of scoring styles and genres.

Abe Laboriel Jr. Drums for Mac and PC, in AAX, AU, VST2, and VST3 formats.

Pricing: 29GBP
