Available as a boxed version including a USB drive, IK Multimedia's MODO Drum is a virtual instrument that gives you the sound of realistic drums. The software utilizes IK Multimedia's award-winning technology to model all the elements of the drums that bring them to life: their dimensions, materials of construction, skins, and more. The company has also modeled playing styles, the interaction of the drum head with the body, sympathetic vibrations between drums, and the acoustic interaction of the room.

Ten kits are offered in MODO Drum. You can adjust nearly every element of the drums from the GUI, damping the drums, changing their diameter, adjusting snare tension, and even changing out the heads. You can customize your kit, and make use of the Integrated Grooves manager, which supplies over 1400 grooves in many different styles. Change the play style of each hit down to the sticks used, all for subtle differences in the sound.

You can save all your alterations in easily recallable presets. You can also make use of a virtual drummer. IK's technology promises infinite round-robins, meaning you can avoid the machine gun effect of each quick hit sounding the same.

MODO Drum's Room section will allow you to place your drums in an array of different environments, from drum booths to clubs, cathedrals, and more, all thanks to built-in convolution reverb. You'll also have the ability to use compressors, gates, and other effects.

This software is compatible with Mac and Windows platforms. It will operate in AU, VST2, VST3, and AAX formats.

Q: 3. Can it be hooked up to a DAC?

A: As far as I can tell, this is a standard Lightning to Micro-USB cable. From my experience, having used such a cable (not this specific cable) for my Sony DAC, it worked flawlessly.

Q: 4. I’ve had these mics for about 2 months now. At first they performed very well, but in the last week or so the three that are on my toms crackle terribly when I hit the tom. This has rendered them unusable for recording. When I take them off the drum and just hold the mic close, this doesn’t happen. Seems like the vibration of the drum is rattling the internals if the mic. Has anyone else had a similar issue or have a suggestion for fixing it?

A: Either way you won't be able to fix it. Either return it or contact the manufacturer about a replacement.

Q: 5. Will it support iPhone 8

A: This is not the one I bought. Mine was a 30 pin on one end.

Q: 6. How long is the cable?

A: This cable will be 150cm / 59 .

Q: 7. How effective is it at reducing drumming noise in the rest of the house if its located in a basement?

A: The ClearSonic IsoPac B Isolation Package is quite effective at reducing the sound of drums being played and having the sound spill out to be picked up by microphones for vocals and other instruments, so it will be effective in reducing the sound throughout a house if the drums are located in the basement. Do keep in mind that the IsoPac B is not going to block out the sound completely.
