The Digidesign Strike RTAS Virtual Drummer is a revolutionary RTAS plug-in that's one part intelligent virtual drummer and one part professional drum module loaded with high-definition drum kits and style choices that gives you realtime control over the performance.

Simply pick the kit and tell the drummer how to play, adjusting the playing intensity, complexity, timing, groove, dynamics, and many other parameters in realtime. Strike offers editable preset patterns based on real recordings and lets you create your own patterns with the onboard Style Editor, which also lets Strike double as a powerful drum module. Proprietary technology eliminates the mechanized artifacts of typical sample-playback devices, while a comprehensive built-in mixer with a full palette of effects processing and multi-channel output capability provides full control over every aspect of the drum kit sound.

if you want your drumms to to be a REAL drummer playing them. This is as close as you can get. maybe even better. sure everything has its things about it that could be better. but overall - it is great. make sure you have plenty of RAM and a good fast decently powerful computer. If you are seriious about music you should have this anyway. strike is a great product. take the time to learn to use it and it is great!

Strike is amazing

I use this with my bass player to record original songs with Pro Tools. The range of control is utterly sick. The control of timbre, tone on each drum (including effects, production, etc.) is simply amazing. I cannot believe how easy it to alter and reconfigure presets and program fills and beats. The quality of sounds and ease of programming are the most realisitc and user friendly I've ever used. This is a must have if you're drummer-less.
