Vintage (1925 to 1965) Drum/Percussion Plugin


Recommended Posts

Anyone have a good suggestion for a drum kit plugin that has a 1965 or even much earlier sound? Specifically interested in very basic jazz kit plugins with brushes and no built in reverb. I currently use a kit that came with my Sonar Session Drummer some years ago (SmartLoops, GroovyKit Brushes), but I'm finding it rather limited.

All my searches for "vintage" drums seem to yield 1970s style drum sounds (or  what I refer to as "classic"). Maybe I need to search for "antique" drums instead! :)

NI has the Abbey Road Vintage drums, sampled with old skin heads & brushes. I use it often when doing 20's & 30's jazz tracks & Dixieland. 

I searched extensively in other libraries and nothing compares. 

Battery 3 had a great brush set circa 2005, but the kit was much newer and brighter.

I saw that plugin in my search. Initially overlooked as I imagined more post 1965 Beatles sounds like so many other folks seem to prefer. Will check it out. Thank you! BTW, do you post any of your vintage jazz and Dixie on BandLab? Would love to her it! :)

And my copyrights from the films that I score won't allow me to post samples, sorry.

But you could list the films you've scored that have those bits in them...? ;) 

 

 

 

I thought I'd seen some old jazz drums on Pianobook but cant find them now...but I ran across this funny one while I was looking:
