We’re thrilled to announce that Grover Pro products have been chosen for inclusion in Zildjian’s new GEN16 Digital Vault.
Gen16′s Intelligent Percussion is a new generation of tools and technologies. Gen16 users include not just drummers and percussionists, but also artists and musicians, producers and engineers, educators, students and hobbyists. Gen16 Intelligent Percussion is equally at home in live performance, recording and project studios, film and TV composition, houses of worship and other multi-media oriented fields.
John Roderick, Zildjian’s VP of Product Development stated, “We’re excited to be including sound samples of Grover Pro’s line of high quality products in our Gen16 Digital Vault. Like Zildjian, Grover Pro’s products are considered to be the ‘best-in-class’ and are valued by top percussionists throughout the world.”

While electronic drums and drum sampling software are not new, Gen16′s Intelligent Percussion takes these genres to an entirely new level. Gen16 products will fundamentally change the ways in which musicians approach and interact with acoustic and electronic percussion. In short, Gen16 Intelligent Percussion will change the way you think about making music.
Look for many of our pro percussion products to be featured in Zildjian’s Digital Vault “Orchestral Pack” set for release later this year.
