“When we got a copy of Drums On Demand, I went, ‘This is amazing. This is incredible.’ The drum sounds are fantastic. The loops are great... I used that on every track on our album ... that was the inspiration."
-- Randy Bachman, on the new CD from Bachman and Turner (More...)
I have been using DOD for many years now. The latest edition I added was the Manic Metal. You may be surprised to know I do not play metal. I tend to record Pop/Rock wit a few ballads for good measure. The metal pack is unreal when used with a hip-hop like beat underneath and a high pass filter to just hear the strike of the bass drum. Anyway, I think the metal is the most professional sounding set you have put out so far.

This stuff is amazing. The quality of the drum tracks alone spawn loads of ideas and riffs. It is so easy to sit down, listen to the tracks and just let your mind wander. You come up with instant ideas to use and it is so easy to drag and drop into your DAW.
Josh Pugh
I want to tell you how much I love DOD. It's better than a drummer to me because it'll do what I tell it. I don't always use DOD as the final mix, sometimes I have a real drummer do the final but I am able to get so much more work done because of these loops. They inspire me. I always have people ask "Who is the drummer?" I always say, "a buddy of mine."
Bryan Walker
You cannot afford to be without these loops in your library, especially if you are a songwriter or producer looking for some great sounding, flexible, acoustic drums.
Matt Allison, MUSIC INDUSTRY ONLINE
Drums on Demand is like having everyone from Steve Gadd to Tommy Lee and everybody in between sitting behind the kit waiting to create. Editing is intuitive, the possibilities endless, the SOUND is incredible and the playing ... World Class. I use it every day and I use it exclusively.

Pro Testimonials
Now when I begin writing, Drums On Demand is an indispensable tool in the process. Because of the abundance of grooves and fills, building a solid drum track is quick and intuitive, as well as being flexible during the writing process.
Bruce Turgon, Long-time bassist for Foreigner, songwriter/producer More on Bruce
DOD files are arranged logically and have variation without a lot of editing. These tracks have high end that make the cymbals speak in a realistic manner, and the kick and snare are always solid. Drums on Demand is a must in my DAW arsenal. Easy - high quality - believable.
Terry Lawless, Live Keyboard Technician/ Programmer for U2, Cher, Chicago, & Backsteet Boys More on Terry
DOD is well played, well recorded, thoughtfully organized and above all, very useful in mapping out tracks in a musical way. The loops and sounds maintain their punch and character even when you throw a bunch of production ideas at them. They don't 'disappear' like most drum/percussion libraries tend to.
John Leventhal (Grammy winner, Rosanne Cash, Michelle Branch, Shawn Colvin, Elvis Costello, Bruce Hornsby) More on John
Drums on Demand is simply magical. Within moments of a song idea you can have a wonderful groove set up in any style, and spend more creativity working on the soul and core of the song and less time getting kick and snare sounds. When I can't put a dream band together for a sessions I know Drums on Demand is always in my studio ready to rock in a world class way.
Devin Powers (Gene Simmons Family Jewels, Leon Russell, Los Lonely Boys, John Entwistle) More on Devin Powers
Like most producers and arrangers, the first thing you need to develop an idea is a feel or beat. And in the heat of the moment , DOD gets you there quickly. Great feel, great sound, and set up right. Don't be surprised when they make it to the final mix either!
Rick DePofi (Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello, Mojo Mancini, Michelle Branch, Joan Osborne) More on Rick
