Finding grooves is effortless with this virtual drum software, thanks to its gigantic, wide-ranging MIDI library. EZdrummer 3's browser has been given a significant makeover.

Feed the virtual instrument an instrument track from your song, and its Bandmate feature will automatically generate a realistic drum performance that matches its feel and groove. EZdrummer 3 also makes editing grooves an effortless endeavor, thanks to overhauled Power Hand features, a turbocharged Grid Editor, and automatic humanization with varied articulations and more. And to top it off, EZD3 comes with a sound library of seven drum kits — plus extras — all captured at the legendary Hansa Tonstudio in Berlin, Germany, by Grammy-winning recording/mixing engineer Michael Ilbert.
