CHOOSE YOUR KIT

Methodically Curated

These aren’t just any drum sets—they’re part of the best virtual drum kit experience. Meticulously assembled and cared for, these kits are owned and used by professional drummers in Los Angeles and have been featured on some of music’s most iconic and popular recordings. Every nuance—tone, shell type, depth, cymbal choice, beater, and even how the drums are hit—has been captured with precision to create the most authentic sound possible in a VST plugin drums format.

Expertly Recorded

A great kit is only as good as the recording that captures it, and our virtual drum software ensures every detail shines. The same microphone choices, placements, treatments, and processing used on some of music’s biggest recordings have been applied here, delivering a release-ready sound straight out of the box. No compromises, just professional-quality drums at your fingertips.

Intuitively Organized

Built in Kontakt 6 V6.8.0 and up for easy integration into your workflow, our sample libraries are designed to strike the perfect balance between instant deployment and rich customization. No extraneous features, no bloated interfaces – just a clean and simple way to access and modify your kits.

Performance Ready

These libraries were designed with drummers in mind, meaning they are as playable as they are programmable. Not only does each kit offer a wide dynamic range and multiple layers of expression, they also easily map to any e-drumming device (e-kits, drum samplers, MPCs, pads, etc.) for capturing live performances. We provide the drums, you provide the feel; drummers can bring expressive playing to recordings more authentically than ever before.
