Key Features of Addictive Drums 2: Custom XL Collection:

• Full Addictive Drums 2 engine included - delivers multichannel, studio-quality sampled drums recorded with realistic mic setups for natural acoustic drum sound.

• Flexible kit building - mix & match parts - combine drums, cymbals and percussion from different packs to build unique kits, swap individual pieces, or layer sounds for creative drum design.
