NEON is UJAM's Virtual Drummer title for nu disco, dance-pop, and house. It ships five acoustic 1970s vintage kits, 690 phrases across 30 styles (23 per style), 100 presets, six mix presets, optional separate close / overhead / room outputs, MIDI phrase triggering, and MIDI clip export. The Real/Glam slider moves the same take from a natural booth to a processed dancefloor. Kits were recorded through Neve 1073 / 1081 preamps and a Studer 962 console.
