Drummers can be hard to find for some non-drummers, and it’s even harder to reach a well recorded acoustic drum kit without a professional studio environment. The digital instrument JH_Drums is a solution to these problems.

Overview

The acoustic drum kit that has been sampled into the digital instrument JH_Drums includes each part of a standard kit. It sounds dry like a fresh recording, and all the knobs included lets you sit on top of the throne at the mixing table. There are volume knobs for each microphone, compressor settings, EQ-frequencies and the reverb effect. All of these separated to each individual part of the drum kit!

Aside from the casual set of knobs and effects, JH_Drums also include free mapping alternatives and velocity adjustments.

Here is a list of the parts included in the drum kit (and the microphones for each):

Kick (In, Out, OH L, OH R and Room)
Snare (Up, Down, OH L, OH R and Room)
Hi-hat (Close, OH L, OH R and Room)
Tom Hi (Close, OH L, OH R and Room)
Tom Mid (Close, OH L, OH R and Room)
