Triple Power for Your Grooves

A masterfully played drum set does more than keep time – it drives the heartbeat of powerful tracks with thundering bass drums, cracking snares, and sizzling cymbals. With three legendary kits playing together, Synchron Power Drums brings that massive energy to your studio, echoing the iconic sounds of drummers like Ringo Starr, Nick Mason, Billy Cobham, and Simon Phillips. These drums unleash rhythmic thunder across any genre with authentic tones of Sonor and Tama kits, captured in the ambient acoustics of the large hall of Vienna Synchron Stage. With over 3,500 MIDI loops, three independent yet perfectly synchronized kits deliver hard-hitting grooves and pounding intensity. Whether you're laying down wild drum solos or locking in the groove with clockwork precision, Synchron Power Drums packs a massive punch with every beat.

Overview

  • Dynamic, powerful and raw recordings of three drum sets, captured at Vienna  Synchron Stage in stereo & surround formats

  • Percussive clarity, depth and detail

  • Ideal for intense patterns, drum battles and multi-player grooves

  • Cinematic drum loops with over 3,500 MIDI files

  • Three complementary patterns in one MIDI file, ready to be played or modified

  • Humanize Delay introduces inaccuracy when needed, with intensity adjustable by MIDI automation

  • Tailor-made mixer presets, from clean to highly processed sounds

  • The Sonor Acryl Champion Vintage (positioned left at Stage A) delivers that perfect 70s sound and has been played by legends such as Ringo Starr, Karen Carpenter and Nick Mason (Pink Floyd). Its acrylic shells have a louder, punchier sound than wooden drums, and a well-tuned acrylic snare drum can deliver a ton of sonic “crack” and projection.

    The Tama Star (positioned in the middle at Stage A) with its dynamic, bright, rich and open sound represents the modern approach to drumming and has been in Tama’s flagship line since 2013. Simon Phillips and Peter Erskine are famous players of this maple drum set.

    The Tama Superstar (positioned right at Stage A) was very present in the 80s. It is made of birch shells, providing a deep, warm, dry and punchy sound – exactly what your typical disco/rock production needs. Interestingly, Billy Cobham and Elvin Jones were among the first adopters of this versatile instrument.
