When you listen to some of the best-selling records from the ’70s, ’80s, and up to current times the chances are that the drums you are hearing are Yamaha Recording Custom (aka 9000) like the ones sampled in this virtual instrument.
This versatile drumset can be used in a wide range of music styles from Pop, Rock to Country, Blues, and even Jazz. It is very punchy, warm, and full-bodied with a short sustain, so it gets out of the way quickly. It has a medium ambiance, halfway between our Standard Pro and Rock drumsets.
The set sampled here is similar to the one Dave Weckl played in the ’80s and ’90s but upgraded with RIMS mounting system for toms. This results in the fullest tone, fatness, and sustain not achievable with the original mounting system. For this sampling session, the drumset was fitted with drum heads which would produce a deep, warm sound with plenty of attack, but with short sustain. This is to provide all the presence and body, while quickly getting out of the way.
The snare drum is a custom GoranGrooves maple drum with wooden hoops, built about a decade ago.
The kit was recorded at full dynamic range using a collection of high-definition mics from Earthworks, Focusrite ISA828 preamps, and Lynx Aurora N converters.
