The Mixosaurus Kit A sampled drum library has been updated thanks to the addition of 11 Gigabytes of new snare drum samples. Essentially a sneak-peek at Mixosaurus’s forthcoming Kit B, the two new snares – a TAMA 14″ x 6.5″ Starclassic Wood Bubinga and a TAMA 14″ x 4″ Starclassic Brass – expand Kit A’s sonic range with lower/fatter and higher/snappier timbres. The bonus snares are included at no charge with new Kit A v1.2 units, and are offered as a free upgrade for current Kit A owners (a nominal shipping fee is charged).
With the additional snares, Kit A now comprises over 140 GB of uncompressed 24-bit recordings. The samples are organized into 1,800+ Kontakt Player patches, which provide control over multiple parameters, including dynamics, filter, envelope, and tuning. Up to seven alternating samples are available for every sound in the library. Up to 64 individual patches can be loaded into a single Kontakt Multi, with both stereo and multi-channel output bussing.
