STN are extremely proud to announce the launch of the DruMM series of Native Instruments Kontakt modules and the first in the series DruMM - Big Grease Kit is a FREE download when you subscribe to the network.
DruMM is a journey into warping quality drum sounds on the fly without the need to spend hours trying to find the right series of effects and dynamics. The DruMM experience has been made to make it both easy for you to explore the madness of this device but to also help in your creativity.
The real power of DruMM lies in the layering process.
The fact that modules can be stacked on top of each other and layered using the same midi channel in Kontakt makes the series both extremely versatile and fun! With this in mind the samples have been processed using phase cancellation, polarity inversion and M/S, all resulting in specific bands being removed to hollow out samples for clean and explosive layering.
PLEASE watch the Drumm - samples and kit layering demo
Each module carries all the primary drum samples you would expect: kicks, snares, claps and hi hats and every octave has 2 kicks, 2 snares, 3 hi hats and one clap assigned to it along with the additional samples. This allows for each octave to carry a separate drum kit, so that means you get 5 individual mini drum kits per module plus all the other samples spanned and ready to 'hit'.
DruMM - Big Grease Kit has been designed with an assortment of samples to compliment the primary drum samples. In this module we have included rare ethnic drum samples to add flavour to your beat productions. There are Darabuks, Djembes, Davuls and Dayerehs, all processed and ready to drop into your mizes.
Feel free to download the PDF manual which explains all the functions of Drumm, the kit list, further info etc.
DruMM is about one thing and one thing only:
Layering and Warping!
Now go break some rules!

Really dope sounds with a bunch of control. There are plenty Kontakt instruments dedicated to acoustic drums and drum kits, however this is the first time I've seen someone take the time to create an urban drum toolkit for Kontakt.
Well done bro!
