He has shared the stage and numerous albums with many Jazz legends. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Roy started playing acoustic drums as a young child with his brothers in Virginia. From that he has come a long way and is now renowned for playing what is called a SynthAxe-Drumitar to trigger drum samples. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e As an instrumentalist Roy Wooten strives to employ the power and science of Mother Nature and his percussive technique takes playing drums way beyond just simple time keeping. His approach is a much more all-encompassing and universal one. Futureman views himself as a storyteller playing music to reach beyond the limits of common musical understanding. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e He invented and built the Drumitar to be able to voice his own revolutionary approach to Jazz with the groundbreaking group Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. As a result Futureman has performed using Toontrack Music samples to an audience of millions, live at some of the most popular and critically revered performance halls, clubs, TV shows and festivals on the planet. Through Roy Wooten our sounds have made it through to the airwaves of places like Carnegie Hall and premier Greenwich Village Jazz club Blue Note. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e About the sessions\u003cbr\u003e Throughout our history of creating sample libraries and instruments, we have strived to both innovate and preserve in all areas of performance, engineering, and genre. In creating this library we went to new and unheard of levels of dynamic. The recordings feature layered sampling with numerous mic stems fronted by recording chains we had previously only dreamt of.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the fall of 07', we began the Jazz with Futureman at the impeccable Blackbird Studios. His passion and knowledge of Jazz history met with a relentlessly energetic and musical approach to single note striking that left the Toontrack crew in utter disbelief. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Roy hears every single hit and swirl recorded as part of a larger whole, as part of a musical sequence rather than as solitary, monotonous hit. The results are samples that strike with intensity and force lending unique scope and musicality to these recordings. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The recordings for the Jazz EZX set a benchmark for how sampling percussive instruments, and musical instruments in general, will be done in the future. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Toontrack Music has had the privilege to capture the magic of Futureman. His touch, his heart, his philosophy and his unique approach to his craft in this Jazz EZX. The story of jazz drums has a new chapter.","brand":"Toontrack Plugins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449400062055,"sku":"10947","price":79.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/toontrack_jazz_ezx_1_ccf7e1e1-d92d-4b01-a867-90da979d3a57.jpg?v=1787088854","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/toontrack-jazz-ezx-electronic-delivery","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
