What it is
ADpak: United Pop is an expansion pack for XLN Audio's Addictive Drums 2, built from drum sounds recorded at United Recording (formerly Ocean Way) in Hollywood. It centers on a vintage Leedy & Ludwig kit with a Ludwig nickel-over-brass snare, tracked through the storied studio's signal chain and mic setup. The pack ships with more than 30 presets tuned for polished, radio-ready pop production, so the tones are ready to use without deep mixing work.
Who it's for
Pop producers and mixers who want a studio-grade drum sound without booking studio time. It suits anyone building tracks around Addictive Drums 2 who needs a bright, punchy kit for chart-leaning pop rather than a raw or vintage-rock tone, and who values presets that get a mix moving fast.
Key features
- Drums tracked at United Recording, the Hollywood studio behind hits from Beck, The Beach Boys, John Mayer, and Madonna
- A vintage Leedy & Ludwig kit with a Ludwig nickel-over-brass snare for a bright, focused pop attack
- Over 30 professionally designed presets ready to drop straight into a mix
- Requires Addictive Drums 2 as the host engine, so it's an add-on rather than a standalone plugin
