Powerful effects including Ambience for 3D sonic imageTired of poor ambient sounds on your electronic kit? Just want to have the same overall ambience on your e-kit as on your acoustic kit, without going through dials and menus to find the perfect sound? With G9 it's easy: not only did GEWA record all G9 drum samples at the world famous Funkhaus Studios in Berlin, they also separately sampled the ambient responses of the drums. This functionality allows you to add an incredible natural ambient layer to your drum sounds with ease using just one fader. In addition to Ambience, you'll also find separate Instrument Reverb and Room Reverb options as well as a powerful Multi-Effects section.
