For many years, the Middle East frame drum has been a constant color in soundtracks and music around the world. Applying our sampling philosophy to various instruments on the frame drum branch has produced some very organic and fresh sounds that, in combination with our X3M percussion motor, are simply a joy to play.

One of our main goals was to have the same round robins, to get as many playing tricks as possible, to allow us to write fast, but at the same time smooth and realistic-sounding drum arrangements. To achieve this, we carefully edited each individual sample of 10 circular robins manually and performed as many iterations as needed, after thorough testing of articulations in a real composition environment.

In addition to this, another important goal for us was to expand the sound palette of the traditional drum sound by adding other instruments that improve but do not change the aesthetics of the main sound too much. Therefore, the DRUM X3M frame not only consists of the same material that we have all heard countless times before, but contains new, but not yet heard instrument combinations that vividly embody your percussion arrangements. Recordings took place at Sofia Session Studio, where we also recorded previous X3M libraries, providing a smooth and easy overlay.
