In 2005, Sony Creative Software released Drums from the Big Room, an elegant five-disc collection of 24-bit multitrack drum loops performed by legendary timekeeper Steve Ferrone (Eric Clapton, Duran Duran, Tom Petty) and produced by Grammy^® winner Greg Ladanyi (Jackson Browne, Don Henley, Toto). Spanning five genres—rock, pop, jazz, R&B, and reggae—the Big Room box meticulously captures the soul and sophistication of vintage kits expertly played by a star drummer in a world class recording environment, and mixed to perfection by one of the best sets of ears in the business.

Now, we’ve distilled the Big Room box experience into The Mixes, a Premium Collection library (two-disc, 24-bit, extensive interviews and photographs) that will streamline your workflow while you enjoy the same classic O’Henry Studio sound that made the sprawling Big Room box a high-end studio essential. Use these Ferrone-performed, Ladanyi-mixed stereo files royalty-free inside your workstation of choice.

As an exclusive bonus, this edition contains complete multitrack breakouts for two unique sessions not included in the Big Room box set. If this is your first time experiencing the depth and flexibility of multi-track drumming—and you like what you hear—then you’ll be ready for the complete Big Room experience. In the meantime, enjoy Drums from the Big Room: The Mixes.
