If you liked the Wave Alchemy Deep Tech and Progressive sample library, but you really only wanted the drum sounds, you’re in luck — Wave Alchemy has released Deep Tech and Progressive – Drums Only, a sample pack featuring only the drum sounds from the previously released Deep Tech and Progressive collection.
This new sample pack provides just the single-hit drum samples and sound effects from the original library; no loops are included. Deep Tech and Progressive – Drums Only includes 662 single-hit drum samples, 62 sound effects, 600 electronic drum kits, and 30 drum kits with sampler patches. All sounds were created from the ground up using quite a few analog synths, drum machines, and more.
Deep Tech and Progressive – Drums Only features:
- 662 Royalty-free, 24-bit WAV samples
- 600 Electronic drum hits derived from the creative layering and processing of drum machines, synthesizers, and organic field recordings
- Some of the units and tools used include the Pearl Syncussion SY-1, Roland TR-808 and TR-909, Jomox M-Brane, Future Retro XS, Purple Audio Action, A-Designs EM-PEQ, Spectrasonics 610, EL Distressor and Fatso, and more
- 30 Drum kits, including sampler patches for Battery, Kontakt, Reason NNXT, HALion, EXS24, and SFZ
- 62 Sound effects samples combining finely designed up-risers, down-sweeps, tension builders, and transition FX, along with esoteric and obscure drones, impacts, and soundscapes
Sound sources include the Future Retro XS, Korg MS-20, Roland Juno 106, Moog Voyager, Nord Lead 3, Waldorf Pulse, Pearl Syncussion SY-1, Jomox Mbrane 11, Elektron Machinedrum UW, and Roland TR-808 and TR-909.
In making the drums-only library, Wave Alchemy also used the following sound-shaping tools: Thermionic Culture Vulture Mastering Version, Empirical Labs Fatso, Empirical Labs Distressor, Cranesong Hedd, A-Designs EM-PEQ, Purple Audio Action, Spectra Sonics 610, SSL E Series EQ and Compressor, SPL Transient Designer, Sherman Filterbank 2, and API 512c Pre-amp.
