Contained in the Pack:

Drum Hits:

500 total drum hits sourced from analogue and digital drum machines. 100 kicks, 104 claps & snares, 107 hi-hats, 154 percussion, 24 crashes and 11 FX. Each hit was then processed using Tape, MPC and Lo-Fi methods to cover all manner of production needs. Each folder is divided into further sub-folders for kick, snare, hats and percussion and then clearly labelled (ride, shaker, tom) for easy browsing.

Bonus Loops:

As an addition, included are 66 drum loops with stripped versions and variants. These loops were made using only the drum hits in this product. Presented in both WAV and Apple Loops formats.

Drum Hits:

As a starting point providing instant playability, 10 drum kits have been custom curated covering House, Hip Hop, Future Beats and Garage. Each kit comes with ready-to-play sampler formats for Maschine 2, Battery 3+, Kontakt, EXS24 and Reason NN-XT.

Tape:

Tracked are each of the 500 drum hits to a Studer A807 on 1/4" tape for that authentic reel-to-reel feel. The hits in this folder are warm and rounded with smoothed transients which ensures they'll fit effortlessly into your mixes.

MPC:

Used by many of the world's most legendary producers, this iconic model needs no introduction and has long been in the top tier of classics. Painstakingly sampled is each of the 500 hits into the MPC60 and back out again, resulting in that unmistakable MPC 12-Bit, 40kHz sample rate crunch.

Desk:

The original and cleanest possible version of the samples, the hits in this folder have been passed from the original source though an SSL Matrix 2 desk and Avalon preamps to faithfully capture their sound.

Lo-Fi:

Processed through a mixture of 8-Bit modules, tape saturation plugins, hardware bit-crushers and even a Boss BR900 digital recorder, the output has been maxed out for a distinctive, decimated flavour. Useful for producers working in darker or more experimental genres.

Please Note:

This is a drum hits pack and contains only drum hits, bonus drum loops and the relevant sampler and kit patches. All other music, vocals and instrumentation you hear is for demonstration purposes only and is intended to showcase what is achievable with this product. Most of the additional sounds are taken from other CONNECTD Audio sample libraries.
