如果你在追寻鼓乐的灵魂,那么条条大路通新奥尔良。这座城市孕育了我们今天所熟知的架子鼓,爵士乐和放克音乐也在这里萌芽,节奏在这里不仅仅是一种音乐元素——它是几个世纪以来非洲、加勒比、法国和克里奥尔传统交织而成的鲜活脉动,最终融合成我们称之为律动的神奇心跳。为了制作这款 EZX 音色库,我们前往新奥尔良,在当地顶尖的鼓乐、设备和律动专家之一——特伦斯·希金斯(曾与约翰博士、艾伦·图森、Dirty Dozen Brass Band 等合作)的指导下,录制了一个包罗万象的鼓组音色库。
这款新 Orleans EZX 音色库EZX 音色库由特伦斯·希金斯本人采样,并由屡获殊荣的工程师、制作人和混音师米沙·卡奇卡奇什维利在他的 Esplanade Studios 录制完成。Esplanade Studios 是当今新奥尔良录音圈的绝对中心之一。录音棚位于充满活力的特雷梅区,坐落于一座经过全面翻新的14,000平方英尺(约1300平方米)的20世纪初教堂内,是路易斯安那州最大的录音棚。仅A录音棚的主录音室就拥有惊人的3,400平方英尺(约310平方米)的空间,天花板高达26英尺(约8米)。自然,这里的氛围令人叹为观止。然而,为了这次录音,鼓声部分区域使用了隔音板,营造出一种既生动又充满冲击力的氛围。
EZX 包含两个独立的音色库:传统音色库和艺术家音色库,每个音色库都收录了一系列由Terence精心挑选的乐器。传统音色库完全专注于历史音色,其中包括一套来自新奥尔良爵士乐博物馆档案馆的世纪之交的鼓组,配有一套独特的碎音镲以及一对罕见的“袜子”脚镲——这是20世纪初现代踩镲的前身。此外,还包含两个额外的低音鼓——其中一个直接取自 Preservation Hall 的舞台——两个罕见的军鼓——其中一个是古董游行鼓——以及一套精心挑选的、对新奥尔良音乐传承至关重要的打击乐器。这些打击乐器包括洗衣板、两个牛铃、一个瓶子、一个潘德罗鼓,以及一个手工制作的木质金属“垃圾”踩镲,能发出极具特色的沼泽音色。与之相反,该音色库的“艺术家”部分则收录了风格更为现代的鼓组,所有鼓组的灵感均源自 20 世纪 50 年代以来的音乐。总而言之,这将为您提供五套音色纯正的鼓组,每一套都代表了新奥尔良独特音乐发展历程中的一个重要里程碑。除了鼓和打击乐器之外,还提供了由 Misha 设计的多功能混音预设库,以及由 Terence 演奏的节奏和过门鼓 MIDI 库,确保您能够快速上手,制作出从传统的爵士乐到流畅的街头节拍和受新奥尔良第二线启发的节奏等各种音乐。
这款 EZX 鼓组应有尽有:饱经岁月洗礼、气势磅礴的低音鼓,音色低沉、略带沙哑的古董军鼓,以及博物馆级别的打击乐器和鼓组,能够完美演绎任何复古或现代的灵魂乐、放克或根源音乐。如果您正在寻找能够展现新奥尔良独特律动精髓的打击乐色彩,那么这款 EZX 鼓组绝对是您的不二之选。

If you’re chasing the soul of drumming, all roads lead to New Orleans. This is the city where the drum kit as we know it was born, where jazz and funk first took shape and where rhythm has never been just a musical element – it’s the living pulse woven over centuries by African, Caribbean, French and Creole traditions, merging into that magical heartbeat we call groove. For this EZX, we traveled there to capture an all-encompassing drum library under the supervision of one of the city’s foremost experts on drumming, gear and groove: Terence Higgins (Dr. John, Allen Toussaint, Dirty Dozen Brass Band).
The New Orleans EZX was sampled by Terence Higgins himself and recorded by multi-award-winning engineer, producer and mixer Misha Kachkachishvili at his Esplanade Studios, one of the absolute hubs of today’s New Orleans recording circuit. Located in the vibrant Tremé neighborhood and housed in a completely remodeled 14,000-square-foot early 1900s church, it’s the largest recording studio in Louisiana. The main recording room in Studio A alone boasts a staggering 3,400-square-foot space with ceilings up to 26 feet high. Naturally, the ambience is awe-inspiring. For this recording, however, the drums were partially sectioned off using gobos to create a lively yet viscerally close feel.
The EZX includes two separate libraries, Traditional and Artist, each featuring a range of instruments sourced and carefully selected by Terence. The first fully hones in on the historical and includes a turn-of-the-century kit straight from the archives of the New Orleans Jazz Museum, complete with a unique set of crashes as well as a pair of rare “sock” foot cymbals – an early 20th century precursor to the modern-day hi-hat. In addition, two extra bass drums – one of which came straight off stage at Preservation Hall – two rare snares – one of which is an antique parade drum – and a carefully selected set of percussion pieces pivotal to the New Orleans lineage are included. These cover a washboard, two cowbells, a bottle, a pandeiro drum as well as a handmade wood-and-metal “junk” hi-hat providing a characteristically swampy sound. Conversely, the Artist portion of the library features kits that are modern in comparison, all inspired by the sounds from the 1950s onward. All in all, this will give you five authentic-sounding kits, each representing its own defining mile marker in the evolution of the inimitable New Orleans sound. Aside from the drums and percussion, a versatile library of mix-ready presets engineered by Misha as well as a drum MIDI library of grooves and fills performed by Terence is provided, making sure you’re off to a flying start producing anything from the traditionally jazz-tinged to the slinky street beats and second-line-inspired grooves that all scream New Orleans.
Timeworn, thunderous open-sounding bass drums, antique snares with that dark, subdued and papery snap to their tone, museum-like percussion pieces and kits that’ll faithfully serve any vintage or modern soul, funk or roots-inspired tune, this EZX has it all. If you’re looking for a palette of the percussive colors that helped paint the intricate mosaic of sound that is the basis of the inimitable New Orleans groove, this EZX is as authentic as it gets.
