Hi,

(broken link removed) has been updated to version 2:

Alive Underground Drums by Nicolas Signat for Kontakt - Out Now.


Alive Underground Drums V2 has been developed by a very small team of people who are passionate about creating the best sounding Kontakt Instruments. It has taken many months of hard work and sleepless nights to develop.

AUDV2 has been developed by Nicolas Signat in conjunction with Sampleism and contains 3 high-end drum kits (Gretsch New Classic, Sonor 3007, Ludwig Legacy), 9 great snares and a host of the finest cymbals on the market.

AUDV2 was entirely recorded in a huge underground car park in high definition (88,2 kHz 24 bit stereo) with a Rode NT4 and a Nagra LB recorder.

Placed at about one meter, the microphone offers a result somewhere between a close mic and an overhead position, with a perfect balance between direct sound and reverberated sound.

Weighing in at 3.9GB in size this is an astonishing collection of high-end drums recorded in a very unique environment and packaged in a wonderful Kontakt interface, giving you ultimate control of the sounds.

Alive Underground Drums is very different from all the virtual drums you've known. For more information you can download the user manual (broken link removed).

AUDV2 is a Sampleism exclusive and retails for £39.99 but the intro price is just £29.99 until Jan 2014.

For people who have already purchased AUDV1 there is an upgrade option. Please email [email protected] with your original PO number or email and you can upgrade to V2 for £4.99!
