XLN Audio has announced the release of the Progressive Metal ADpak drum kit expansion together with the Addictive Drums 2: Progressive Metal Collection.

Progressive Metal ADpak for Addictive Drums 2

Centered around the playing of Waltteri Väyrynen (Opeth), the releases capture a modern progressive metal sound built on precision, dynamics, and expressive range.

The Progressive Metal ADpak was recorded on Waltteri’s own Pearl Reference Pure kit, delivering a wide dynamic palette from tight, articulate double-kick work to expansive tom movement and dark, detailed cymbal textures. Known for his work with Opeth, Waltteri’s performance brings an authentic, studio-level reference point to the instrument’s sound.

Price: USD 89.00 / EUR 89.00.

Addictive Drums 2: Progressive & Heavy Collection

Both kits feature dual kick drums, giving you the natural, alternating feel that makes double kick patterns come alive.

Two companion MIDIpaks complete the package, adding a wide range of grooves from Waltteri Väyrynen’s intricate progressive structures, to Dylan Watson’s hard-hitting beats. Whether you need brute force or nuanced musical detail, these grooves help you build heavy drum parts that feel authentic.
