Introducing Pro Drums Blues 2 - your multitrack recording solution for authentic blues drumming!
Pro Drums Blues sets a new standard for authentic blues drumming. This pack is stacked with 6329 live-played acoustic drum loops, all recorded with pro-level gear and vintage mojo. You’re getting 14.5 GB of multitrack drum performances that move, breathe, and swing like the real thing.
From slow, smoky shuffles to raw, foot-stomping backbeats, these grooves go deep. Whether played with sticks, rods, or brushes, every loop is full of that expressive, human touch that makes blues feel alive. No lifeless programming — just real drums, recorded with care and character.
Key Features:

Each BPM / folder consists of several drum grooves and fills and contains a mixed stereo drum loop, premixed groups, and all individual tracks as a dry version, including kick in/out, snare bottom/top, hi-hats, toms, ride, crash, overheads, and room microphones.
Enjoy the flexibility of multitrack drum recording, allowing you to control the mix and dynamics of each element.
Recording Gear:
