Toontrack Made Of Metal EZX review
Metal drums on a budget? Call Colin.
By Stuart Williams published 26 March 15
MusicRadar Verdict
Toontrack has no shortage of metal sounds in its catalogue, each one produced by world-class people, but think of this as an extra palette. Of course you’ll need EZdrummer 2 to run it, but at £50, it’s almost robbery.
Superb value for money. Nails a nice variety of modern metal drum sounds. Pin-sharp note definition.
With the latest EZ Drummer EZX Expansion, Made Of Metal, metal production legend Colin Richardson, engineer Carl Bown and UK drum supremo Jason Bowld have bottled up a complete drum recording setup in software form, offering it to you for just under £50.
Build
«Colin Richardson? I’ve heard of him, haven’t I?» If you’re a fan of metal and have read any sleeve notes in the last 20 years, then, yes, you’ll know Colin from his work with the likes of Slipknot, Machine Head, Bullet For My Valentine and loads more.
«The sounds are aimed at modern metal and hard rock, and they do this brilliantly, in a number of flavours»
Now, Belgium may not be the first place you think of when it comes to the creation of groundbreaking metal drum sounds, but when Toontrack’s Mattias Eklund gave Colin Richardson the green light to go anywhere in the world to record this project, Richardson chose Galaxy Studios in Mol, Belgium.
Armed with an arsenal of microphones and outboard gear, Richardson, Bown and Jason Bowld set about sampling four kits (Tama Starclassic Bubinga, Mapex Velvetone, Truth Custom Walnut and DW Blue Oyster).
As well as these shell packs, you get five snares (Ludwig 402 and Black Beauty, Brady Jarrah, Mapex Black Panther Seamless Steel and a Yamaha Custom Maple), plus 16 cymbal variations from Paiste, Zildjian and Sabian covering just about every sound you’re likely to need.
Hands On
Toontrack’s philosophy with its EZ line of products means that there’s very little messing about, and this one follows suit. The kit sounds have been made into five presets: one for each kit with control over the grouped microphones, overheads and ambient mics, as well as additional compression and reverb.
The extra ‘Original Mix’ preset spreads all of the close mics for each drum across the mixer, giving you comprehensive control between, say, the top and bottom snare mic balance.
We mentioned clarity earlier, and even with the ambient mics cranked, all of the kits here offer pin-sharp note definition. The kicks are pointy, yet full. The toms have great attack and plenty of round sustain, making each note heard, but also sound full.
I’m a freelance member of the MusicRadar team, specialising in drum news, interviews and reviews. I formerly edited Rhythm and Total Guitar here in the UK and have been playing drums for more than 25 years (my arms are very tired). When I’m not working on the site, I can be found on my electronic kit at home, or gigging and depping in function bands and the odd original project.

Toontrack Made of Metal EZX [TT301SN]
SDX expansion pack for EZdrummer and Superior Drummer
Few producers are cited as pioneers, for having helped shape the sound of a genre or generation of bands. With landmark releases by the likes of Slipknot, Machine Head, Carcass and many others, British Colin Richardson is undoubtedly one of them. Add to that world-class drummer Jason Bowld (Axewound, Pitchshifter), arguably one of the most meticulously crafted studio facilities in the world as well as a handpicked collection of top-shelf drums and you have the key components in the Made of Metal EZX.
The Made of Metal EZX was recorded at Belgium’s Galaxy Studios, a recording facility crafted with unparalleled detail. Their wood-lined, hall-like main room, in which four complete kits were captured, bring out the very essence of the instruments. The deep, reverberant presence of the toms, the crisp textures of the cymbals and the piercing attack of the snares and kicks.
Put all this in the powerful framework of EZdrummer 2 and you have the most raging, ear-numbing and dynamic collection of drums for any metal or hard rock production.

Полная библиотека для барабанного модуля Superior Drummer 3
Testament, Megadeth, Arch Enemy, Exodus, Killswitch Engage и Devildriver все называют одного и того же человека, чтобы заложить окончательную руку на своих альбомах: британский Энди Снап. Этот высокопрофессиональный продюсер / инженер работал над многочисленными номинантами на премию Grammy®, известный во всем мире за то, что выпустил самые тяжелые релизы за последнее десятилетие и сыграл важную роль в формировании звука металлической музыки, как мы ее знаем в новое тысячелетие. Теперь Toontrack с гордостью представляет первую в истории барабанную библиотеку, чтобы нести свою безошибочную печать; Металлическая машина EZX.
Записанный ударным барабанщиком John Tempesta (White Zombie, Testament, Helmet) в Лос-Анджелесе Henson Recording Studios, ранее известном как студия A & M, Metal Machine EZX не имеет ни одного из металлических признаков, которых вы ожидаете: громовых басовых барабанов, свирепых ловушек в вашем лице и томов, которые прорезают ваши миксы с кристально чистым тоном, чтобы умереть.

The Metal! EZX is based on a new drum recording engineered by Daniel Bergstrand in Norway’s highly unique Tanken Studio. The raw material was then individually remixed by Mark Lewis, Jason Suecof and Daniel Bergstrand himself into nine drum kits tailor-made for metal. Between them, these three producers have worked with some of modern metal’s most influential acts as well as those pioneering today’s multifaceted scene: Meshuggah, In Flames, Trivium, Whitechapel, DevilDriver, The Black Dahlia Murder, God Forbid and Dimmu Borgir, to name a few. The Metal! EZX also comes with a versatile collection of grooves and fills performed by Soilwork and metal drummer extraordinaire Dirk Verbeuren.
Sometimes the word metal just isn’t enough, it needs an exclamation mark!
