Deliciously versatile.

croquesolid covers every aspect of drum sound design, and they all have their specialized section:
- mode: Set it to kick, snare/toms or overheads/room mode and the plugin will automatically choose optimal settings for the signal path, filters, timings and more.
- attack: Add punch and control to your drum hits with a simple yet powerful transient shaping section.
- gate: Achieve pristine clarity with smart gating and bleed reduction, or use soft expansion to maintain the musicality of your tracks.
- compressor: From clean & modern to vintage warmth, the compressor - inspired by renown studio classics - adapts to any style, giving your drums punch, presence, or even that "slammed" character when needed.
- replacer: Effortlessly blend your drums with built-in multi-layered samples for extra weight or texture using croquesolid’s intuitive drum replacement tool. Available in kick & snare/toms mode.
- stereo width: Achieve correct correlation and spatial integrity of stereo-miked room, ambience or overhead sources, through width control, center position and spectral filters for side signals. Available in overhead/room mode.
- adaptive eq: Sculpt the perfect tone by scanning and dynamically filtering resonance frequencies with a single click and minimum tweaking hassle. Auto-finds the spot of 'maximum thumpification'.
- flavour: Add more deliciousness to your sound through analog-inspired tape saturation, tube warmth, and exciter modes, giving your drums fat lows, sparkling highs and sonic integrity that sits perfect in a crowded mix.
