NAMM 2008 Electronic Drums: RET Percussion

June 30, 2010
By

I was honored by an invitation to join R.E.T. Percussion in introducing the first software based, custom shop drum kit at the 2008 NAMM show. We were all proud to release the latest in electronic percussion, the Virtual Percussion Technology Package. This next generation design recreates the real feel of an acoustic drum in an electronic instrument, triggering great software sounds like BFD and EZDrummer.

We’ve got many more videos and LOTS of information for you!

Featured in this video: Mikey Marcial (MikeyVPT), Tony Royster Jr., David Palmer (Rod Stewart), Brett Batdorf, Scott Speer (RET Client), and a few others.
