Toontrack releases EZX by acclaimed drummer Ash Soan

Pocket EZX was recorded by acclaimed session drummer Ash Soan at his famed The Windmill studio. This marks the forty-ninth title in the company’s massive collection of EZXs.

About the In the Pocket EZX
When the likes of Dua Lipa, Alicia Keys and Taylor Swift need organic-sounding but hyper-fresh beats for their songs, they call Ash Soan. But they don’t send him off to any fancy metropolitan studio to lay down his tracks, they have him record a stone’s throw from his front door. Welcome to The Windmill, 18th century mill-turned-drum room and arguably the smallest studio that has made the biggest dent in modern music history.

The In the Pocket EZX taps in on the trinity that has made the beats recorded at the The Windmill the keystone of countless hits: the inherent magic swirling in the cylinder-shaped structure of its one-of-a-kind room, Ash’s ingenious ability to tune, alter and engineer unique-sounding make-shift kits as well as his inimitable bedrock-solid pocket groove. 

In addition to the included MIDI library and wealth of preset content, this EZX includes five core kit variations engineered to cater to the broadest possible cross section of beat-driven, modern music across the genres. Whether you’re looking to write beats for hip-hop, funk, contemporary R&B or modern reggae, there’s a kit or preset at your reach. 

Welcome to the ultimate canvas for limitless modern music production – and the perfect opportunity to lock in with the pocket of one of today’s most in-demand drummers
