FXpansion drummed up the support of legendary producer Steve Albini to create one of the most ambitious drum samplers yet. Mike Hillier stays ahead of the beat.

Price: £150.00
Manufacturer: FXpansion

When it comes to capturing the best possible drum sounds, there are few with more experience than legendary recording engineer Steve Albini. His attention to detail and incredible knowledge of microphones have helped define the sound of more than 1,000 albums – the vicious, incendiary drums on Nirvana’s In Utero are just one example of his unique approach to producing and recording.

Score: 8
