DFH EZ Drummer is a multiple microphone drum sample playback engine designed for musicians in need of a compact, affordable, and easy to handle plug-in without compromising any sound quality or control.  
 
The visualized drumkit interface combines auditioning of sounds and drumkit construction. The extensive drag and drop midi library enables users to create a great drumtrack in less than five mouse clicks. For more advanced handling, users can control microphone bleed and levels between drums using the internal mixer. The mixer also allows stereo and multitrack routing into the host through one single plug-in, and thanks to the second generation Toontrack Percussive Compression (TPC), system requirements are kept to the minimum.  
 
The drums for DFH EZ Drummer were recorded, produced and played with the best in the business, making these drum samples the pinnacle in digital drum production.
