Darrell Thorp Signature Drum Sample Pack - WAV One-Shots & Trigger 2

What do you get when you combine one of the most iconic, rock drumkits in music history with one of the most in-demand rock mixing engineers today? You get an incredibly versatile, killer-sounding 1-Shot drum sample pack with plenty of attitude, and jam-packed with over 15,000 pristine 48khz/24-bit samples - personally EQ-ed and mixed by someone who’s made a career out of getting amazing drum sounds for platinum artists like Dave Grohl, the Foo Fighters, Twenty One Pilots, Switchfoot and more.

Darrell is a 10x Grammy® Award-Winning, 3x TEC Award-Winning Los Angeles-based recording & mix engineer with over 26 years’ experience - working in world class commercial studios in Los Angeles, Nashville, New York, London, Paris and many other locations throughout his amazing career. 

In this special WAV/TCI version of our popular Black Oyster Kontakt kit, you'll get the full core kit - including Black Oyster shells (maple snare, rack tom, floor tom and maple kick) PLUS cymbals, hi-hat and 2 extra snares (a Black Beauty and a Chrome over Brass 5x14) in convenient WAV and TCI formats. The WAV files include ALL of the individual microphone channels + "Natural" and "Rock" pre-mixed/pre-balanced PRESETS, all mixed by Darrell. You'll also get Alternative hits with even more tone and character to choose from. 

Layer the WAVs up yourself in whatever DAW or hardware sampler you want, or use these as multi-channel drum replacement (already velocity- layered for you) in Slate Trigger 2 TCI format for an incredible boost in sound quality.

You'll also receive a Bonus "Louder" folder containing all the shell samples professionally gain boosted an additional +1-2db for extra "oomph" and power, without any additional noise in the signal.

These samples really showcase Darrell’s signature sound – whether he’s working with alt-rockers, heavy metal icons or even a pop legend like Paul McCartney (whose band the Beatles put this kind of drum kit on the map), his drums always sound so…BIG, alive and real. The production here is punchy, and the kit is warm & resonant, making it a great kit for just about any style of music – but especially rock, alt-rock & hard rock, where the drums really need to stand out in the mix. If you want mix-ready drum samples that sound like you recorded them on a major record label budget, look no further than these samples.
