It's a well-known fact that Magnetic Tape does wonderful things to Acoustic Drum Kits, organically smoothing out harsh high frequencies and retaining the visceral punch of kicks toms and snares. Turns out, tape does mostly the same thing to fake drum sounds as well. The new Kreativ Sounds Tape Drums is a testament to that fact.

Tape Drums is a collection of drums samples trigger from digital and analog sources, then "processed" (mastered?) to tape. The result is a collection of drum sounds that have the punch of old-school sample machines and synthesizers. Think Daft Punk meets Kurtis Blow. Or, alternately, Beck meets the Human League. Or. . . you get the idea.

Tape Drums features:

• 160 original synth drums in 44KHz/24bit format
• Reason Refill containing 16 ReDrum drum kits and 8 Scream4 patches
• each preset features velocity information for precision control

While the sonic quality of Kreativ Sounds Tape Drums alone is pretty enticing, nothing is as nice as its price: pay what you will. Deciding upon value is just another way that Kreativ Sounds inspires your creative side.
