The Ultimate Virtual Drummer
   

Digidesign® Strike™ is a revolutionary instrument plug-in that makes it easy to create professional drum performances in Pro Tools® with uncanny realism and unbelievable human feel. More than just a high-definition drum module, Strike uses real drum performances and provides unprecedented control over every aspect of your virtual drummer’s sound and playing. Select a kit, set the mic placement and leakage, choose a room, and tell your drummer how to play as you adjust the intensity, complexity, timing, groove, dynamics, and more — in real time. This is one instrument you have to see to believe.
 
Features:
  • Easily produce highly realistic drum performances right within Pro Tools software
  • Full real-time control of the virtual drummer’s performance, including intensity, complexity, timing, groove, dynamics, and more
  • Groundbreaking real-time performance engine allows for gradual drum performance dynamics adjustments without the typical machine gun effect or audible velocity layer switching
  • Choose from five high-definition drum kits, each featuring up to 12 instruments per kit and up to 300 samples per instrument
  • Includes over 20 GB of 24-bit audio stored in just 5 GB of space via proprietary lossless compression

New Strike Content Expansion
Strike Content Expansion is a software add-on for Strike that expands the instrument’s capacity to cover a broad range of musical styles. Strike Content Expansion adds over 300 MB of classic drum machine samples to Strike, and includes 100 new “Style” settings, expanding the instrument’s functionality to encompass a broader range of drum sounds and rhythm styles that complement a wider range of musical genres.

Strike™ is a revolutionary new RTAS instrument plug-in that makes it easy to create, control, and produce professional drum performances in Pro Tools® with uncanny realism. One part intelligent virtual drummer, one part professional drum module, Strike features a wide range of high-definition drum kits and style choices, and allows for unprecedented control over the virtual drummer’s performance.

Meet Your New Drummer
With Strike, getting the groove you want is as simple as choosing one of the high-definition kits and telling the “virtual” drummer how to play: Adjust the playing intensity, complexity, timing, groove, dynamics, and much more — all in real time. Use the automation features in Pro Tools to perfect all of your moves and get the perfect drum performance. Connect your MIDI controller to tweak your performance on the fly using knobs, sliders, drum pads, or anything else that sends MIDI data. And for the ultimate in control, use a Digidesign control surface — such as Command|8 or Control|24 — or tap into the power of an ICON integrated console.

Unbelievable Human Feel
Strike’s proprietary realtime performance engine eliminates the mechanized artifacts of typical sample-playback devices to deliver human results with unparalleled realism. Increase the playing intensity and you’ll get a smooth dynamic response in the drum tone instead of audible velocity switches. Change up the feel or complexity and get instant, natural-sounding results. With Strike, you can produce professional drum tracks simply not possible using conventional sampling technology.

Comprehensive Grooves
Strike comes loaded with five high-resolution drum kits, each containing up to 12 instruments with up to 300 individual samples per instrument for an incredible range of detail. Whether you compose soundtracks, pop tunes, or just need a drummer to jam along with on your guitar, Strike delivers totally human results with over 1,500 editable preset patterns in popular music styles. Strike also lets you create your own custom patterns with the onboard Style Editor, or by functioning as a drum module in Pro Tools software.

Mix It Up
To help you get the perfect drum sound, Strike includes a built-in mixing console for full control over every aspect of the kit. Change virtual microphone settings, such as room ambience and leakage, then take advantage of dedicated 3-band EQ and two insert effects per channel. Strike’s onboard effects range from dynamics and limiting to reverb and delay, plus specialized tools like bit crusher and filter. The onboard mixer lets you easily adjust the overall level and panning for each drum and route individual sounds to separate mixer channels in Pro Tools software.
