Propellerhead Software and Drummerheads have announced the Jason McGerr Sessions ReFill for Reason version 4. Jason McGerr, the drummer of Death Cab for Cutie, as well as a producer and owner of Two Stick studios, has been long time fan and user of Reason. Now he has created a versatile collection of acoustic drum loops and hyper-sampled drum kits designed for flexible and creative music production for Reason users. This new ReFill from Drummerheads is available today exclusively from the PropShop at: www.propellerheads.se/creatorseries The Jason McGerr Sessions ReFill consists of drum kits and REX loops covering a wide range of styles, all with an alternative feel. McGerr himself performed and recorded all material, in the very studio with the same instruments and recording equipment used to record the drums for the upcoming Death Cab for Cutie album. Inspired by Propellerhead’s Hypersampling approach used in Reason Drum Kits 2, Jason McGerr Sessions takes a completely unique approach to working with drum loops and drum samples. This ReFill offers both a large collection of REX Loops along with highly detailed samples of the drums used in recording those loops. Propellerhead tell us that that means that song construction with drum loops is a breeze, and adding detail, breaks and fills to the loops, which previously had been a challenge, is now a snap. Users can build up songs with the REX Loops and then use the multi-sampled kits to make the drum sounds their own.
The ReFill enables balancing close and ambient mics to sculpt the sound. Propellerheas sat that, through using vintage and state-of-the-art equipment combined with carefully selected instruments, the loops and drum kits offer great character as well as pristine audio quality.
Jason McGerr had this to say, “When the opportunity came up to contribute content for a new ReFill for Reason 4, I looked around at all the equipment I owned and the fact that I had just built a new recording studio focused on drums and said… ABSOLUTELY. To be able to make REX loops that feel great, and then supplement them with sequenced parts made up of the same instruments and acoustics is a dream come true.�
