These super-engineers created great bass and drum sounds for everyone from Bowie to Beyoncé, Post Malone to Foo Fighters, Led Zeppelin to John Mayer. Now, let them work their magic for you.

CLA Bass

Multi-Effects Optimized for Modern Rock/Pop Bass

Grammy winner Chris Lord-Alge (Foo Fighters, Green Day, Muse) has laid down some of the punchiest sounds ever for modern rock music. CLA Bass translates his experience, forged in world-class studios around the world, to a monster tone machine for bass.

Whether you record electric or synth bass, CLA Bass delivers the full tonal spectrum from shaking sub-bass to a deep chainsaw growl—and makes it easy to dial up the right bass sound for your mix.

CLA Drums

Multi-Effects for 6 Different Drum Miking Positions

Grammy winner Chris Lord-Alge (Springsteen, Green Day, Muse) says it best: “When creating the CLA Drums plugin, I had one thing in mind—anyone who uses it can get a great drum sound for any song and any mix, and just have fun!” Mission accomplished.

With separate processing for individual drum tracks, each sound has its own focus that contributes strength and detail in the final mix. With CLA Drums, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Eddie Kramer Bass Channel

When working with guitar-heavy bands like Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, it took Eddie Kramer’s legendary engineering skills to make sure the bass fit like a glove. Eddie Kramer Bass Channel captures his bass production expertise.

Eddie’s goal was crystal-clear: fat bass tones with presence that pop on radio mixes, without being overbearing—and with a choice of a more aggressive, or more dynamic, character. His bass plugin deliver those tones in your mixes.

Eddie Kramer Drum Channel

Eddie Kramer’s acclaimed production and engineering with Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, and the Rolling Stones tells all you need to know about his drum sound. For a huge Zep-like sound drenched in atmosphere, to a squashed Hendrix sound, to dirty like the Stones, Eddie’s drum expertise can now grace your projects.

Designed for multi-tracked drums, the Drum Channel captures Eddie Kramer’s drum mixing chains in detail. The plugin has optimized settings for toms, kick, snare, high-hat, overheads, and room mics—everything you need to make each part of the kit come alive.

JJP Bass

Parallel Multi-Effects for Electric and Synth Bass

Whether for DI, synth, or amplified bass, JJP Bass isn’t about variations on a specific bass tone—but finding the perfect bass color for any musical context. Multiple parallel processors enhance the bass’s core character, making JJP Bass equally suitable for hip-hop, EDM, rock, or jazz bass.

Created with Grammy-winning producer/engineer Jack Joseph Puig (John Mayer, U2, Lady Gaga, the Rolling Stones), JJP Bass raises the bar for bass processing.

JJP Cymbals & Percussion

Finally—a multi-effect that shines a sonic spotlight on percussion and cymbals, and dynamically enhances how they sit in a mix. Parallel processing adds four individual effects to the core sound, with separate optimizations for hi-hat, overheads, room mics, tambourine, shaker, and loops.

Created in close association with Grammy winner Jack Joseph Puig (John Mayer, Lady Gaga, U2, Green Day), this plugin provides an ingenious complement for kick, snare, and toms.

JJP Drums

Multi-Effect Processing for Kick, Snare, Toms

Grammy winning producer/mixer Jack Joseph Puig (Rolling Stones, U2, John Mayer, Lady Gaga) knows that a good drum sound isn’t just a big kick and a snare that snaps. This innovative, advanced plugin optimizes snare, kick, and toms to create a commanding, pro-level drum sound for any mix.

With its streamlined interface and expertly chosen default settings, JJP Drums is all about dialing in focused, powerful drum sounds in seconds—whether for acoustic, sampled, or synthesized drums.

Maserati B72

Designed for both and synth bass, Maserati B72 is the ideal touch-up tool for tone. DI mode, optimized for electric or acoustic bass, shapes the sound with high and low EQ. Synth mode adds width, buzz, and color to synths, but also gives novel flavors to any kind of bass.

Created in close collaboration with Grammy-winning mixer Tony Maserati (Beyoncé, Jason Mraz, Alicia Keys), B72 makes it easy to get fullness and character, from hip hop to pop and rock.

Maserati DRM

DRM leverages its THUMP, SNAP, and TREBLE controls for individual drums: kick, snare top, snare bottom, hi-hats, toms, overheads, and room mics. Fine-tune every drum in a multi-output drum module to create a monster-sounding kit that fits into any mix—no matter how thick.

Designed in close association with Grammy winner Tony Maserati (Beyoncé, Jason Mraz, David Bowie), Maserati DRM will help you help your drums stand out even in the busiest mixes.
