Drum Kit Vst Plugin Free
This is a VERY deeply sampled version of this classic drum kit for Reaper. And it is completely dry for you to sculpt as you like using Reaper’s superior processing.
Top free ableton vst. The Easy-Drum X8 freeware VST plugin by easytoolz is an analog vintage-style drum machine with 12 fully synthesized instruments each with its own designated 16-step sequencer. For each sound the plug-in features several controlling options and effects like volume, panning, pitch, decay, punch, distortion, and a filter.

- Beat Magazine, the popular German audio magazine has released the DRMR free drum plugin as a contribution to the annual KVR Developer Challenge (2018). This new free drum plug-in called DRMR includes a number of 168 drum kits ready for creative use. Using a classic 4×4 pad matrix, the individual sounds can be triggered, a mixer for mixing is also at the start.
Note : This version has all un-normalized , unscaled samples, which, in my opinion, help with maintaining natural dynamics. However, many people better qualified than me do not agree. If you are one of them, you can use one of the may other options / versions on this website.
And if you don’t have Reaper , you can use the included open 24 bit WAV samples in whatever sampler you choose. The samples are precisely named so mapping should be a breeze. But you should at least try the included Reaper kit even if you are not a Reaperite.
Description
What makes it so special ?
Glad you asked. The instrument has :
Kick : 127 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Snare No Ring : 127 velocity layers x 4 round robins
Snare Studio Ring : 127 velocity layers x 4 round robins
Snare Rimshots : 51 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Tom 1 : 49 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Tom 2 : 49 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Tom 3 : 49 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Hihat – Closed : 127 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Hihat – Foot Closed : 46 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Hihat – Foot Open : 46 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Hihat – Loose : 127 velocity layers x 4 round robins
Hihat – Open : 26 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Ride 17 – 49 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Ride 17 Bell – 49 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Ride 20 : 49 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Ride 20 Bell : 45 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Crash 15 : 45 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Crash 17 : 45 velocity layers x 2 round robins
Yes, you read that correct. The main snare (a classic 1965 Ludwig 5″x14″ Jazz Festival Snare drum) has 127 velocity layers and 4 round robins !! The kicks and hats also have 127 velocity layers and 2 round robins !! And I can confirm, it is a pleasure to play and program.
Pick up your jaw off the floor and let’s move on.
The mic channel layout is as follows :-
The Snare: four separate mics (Top, Bottom, Stereo combining Left & Right overheads mic).
The Kick Drum: one close mic as well as Stereo combining Left & Right overhead mics.
The Toms: one close mic as well as Stereo combining Left & Right overhead mics.
The Hats : One Stereo combining Left and Right mics.
The Cymbals : One Stereo combining Left and Right mics
Yes, that is correct. Each of those 127 x 4 snare samples have 4 mic channels (it’s a 4 channel / track WAV file). So effectively its 127 x 4 x 4 = 2032 samples just for just one snare articulation !!
ALL of the samples are multi-channel with the minimum being hats and cymbals (2 channel true stereo) and the main drums being 4 channels. ALL of the samples are unprocessed and un-normalized to preserve their natural dynamics. You can tweak them in a myriad of ways to your liking.
The Reaper instrument provides control over EACH mic channel. Example : for the snare you can mix in some more top mic channel , apply compression to the bottom mic channel and reverb to the overhead channels. Then you can further process these 4 channels combined in the snare bus.
The general flow is :
- MIDI In / Drum Sequencer
- Samples (multi channel wav files having upto 127 velocity layers and 4 round robins)
- Samplers (RS5K instances where the basic sample playback behavior /ADSR / MIDIMap can be tweaked)
- Drum Mic Channels (where you can set the mix amount and processing for each mic depending on what’s available)
- Drum Buses (where you can process the combined bus for each kit piece)

Manual
This is a very clear and helpful manual to get you started :

You should read it cover to cover (it’s a short 21 pages only) to understand the instrument (which has a lot of levels).
Note : Make sure that the mixer (Ctrl + M) and the screensets (Ctrl + E) windows are visible and docked in Reaper at the bottom to maximize your experience.
The MT Power Drum Kit is a free drum sampler offering the powerful, high-quality sounds of an acoustic, realistic drum kit. Samples have been specially recorded and processed to make them ideally suited for use in pop, rock and metal productions.
The MT Power Drum Kit Sampler differs from other, expensive drum samplers in that we have already pre-processed the sounds with compressors and EQs to make them a perfect fit for any mix. This is precisely where many drum sample programs fail. Some of the expensive plugins available on the market deliver a highly natural and dynamic drum kit sound as a solo instrument, but many fail as soon as they are supposed to be used for a complete mix in a powerful pop or rock production. Either the kick drum suddenly sounds much too slack or fuzzy in the mix, or the snare drum, which initially sounds natural and dynamic in solo mode, suddenly gets lost in the background in the overall mix, drowned out by the guitars and other instruments. But this is exactly where the MT Power Drum Kit is strongest. Its kick and snare drums come through clearly in any mixing situation – and still sound natural and not overly compressed.
The compressors built into the channels give you even more control over the level of compression.
You can choose from thousands of assorted rhythms in the comprehensive Groove Library and compose your own drum accompaniment. In particular, the innovative functions for creating fills generate very smooth and realistic drum tracks (see video).
Because we used high-quality cymbals and microphones for the recordings, the crash, ride and hi-hat cymbals sound especially refined and pleasant at various velocities.
As early as during microphoning of the set and recording of individual samples, we took great care to replicate realistic circumstances. Although doing so is almost impossible, we broke with tradition in sample recording, which calls for capturing every sound individually; Instead, our studio drummer played entire grooves. Then, we cut most of the necessary sounds out of the grooves, in various velocities, and processed them to deliver samples as realistic as possible. This is especially clear with our hi-hat samples, for instance. On the right-hand side, you can listen to demo tracks to hear the impressive results.
