Shape the Rhythm With More Than Drums

The main drum categories give you the pieces needed to program a beat from the ground up. Start with the kicks and snares to establish the core rhythm, then use claps and hi-hats to build out the pattern. The added percussion can fill specific spaces without taking over the main groove.

Because the samples are chopped, you can place each sound independently in your DAW. This makes it possible to create your own drum arrangement and adjust individual hits as the track develops.

Add Movement With EFX, Sounds, and Loops

The kit also includes EFX, sounds, and loops, giving you material beyond the core drum hits. Loops can provide a starting point for a beat or become another layer within an existing arrangement, while the additional sounds and EFX can be introduced where they fit the structure of the track.

Rather than using every category at once, you can treat the pack as a collection of separate production tools. Build the main rhythm first, then bring in the additional elements when the arrangement calls for them.
