Drum Tools 01 - Definitive Electronic Drum Library Now Available

Hello Everyone,

Our Drum Tools 01 sample library has now officially landed

Before I get into any of the technical details: You can download 150 completely free drum samples from Drum Tools 01 here:

https://www.yousendit.com/transfer.p...MGNEbUxIRGc9PQ

These free sounds are taken directly from Drum Tools 01 and are designed to give you a good idea of the quality to expect from the full library which can be viewed here:

Drum Tools 01 - Minimal Techno | Sample CDs & Sample Packs - Wave Alchemy

Please Note: This free collection is quite different to the Drum tools teaser pack previously posted, so I would urge you to grab this as well.

Info:

Drum Tools 01 offers over 1950 exquisitely produced electronic drum samples. All sounds in the collection have been built from the ground up using a jaw-dropping array of analogue circuitry and exclusive high-end outboard gear. Great care has been taken to capture the tone / vibe and warmth of the equipment used and all sample editing and file naming has been done by hand for maximum precision.

The drum samples in Drum Tools 01 have been created by the creative layering and processing of drum machines, exotic synthesizers / modulars, field recordings and the recording of live drum and percussive instruments.

After listening to the free samples I had to take the plunge and buy this. What can I say, the samples are really incredible! There is so much stuff still to go through - the library is huge...

keep up the good work

The sound amazing. I really like the partials for layering. Sometimes you have the overall sound, but it doesn't quite pop enough... no longer!

Thanks! Glad you are enjoying them

My personal favourites are the 'deep minimal kicks' 'analogue synth perc' and 'toms & tones' folders!

Hi Guys,

Sorry for bumping an old thread, slightly spammy I know, but I thought some of you guys might be interested to know that for two weeks only you can grab our Drum Tools 01 library at a huge 50% discount:

Drum Tools 01 - Minimal Techno, Minimal Drum Samples & Sample Packs

Happy Producing

p.s I am well underway with the production of Drum Tools 02 which will this time incorperate a lot more acoustic percussion amongst much more...

Hi Tony,

Yes we can definately look into providing NI Maschine presets in future libraries, especially Drum Tools 02 and future drum-based packs.

Cheers,

Dan

Nice!

Hey, I just noticed you guys also have a new Tech House & Minimal library! I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere, but the demos sure sound nice!
