Cool drum packs for idiots such as myself?

[CommandSpry]

Hey, as an idiot who uses sampled drums, what is a cool pack to acquire, you know, not as overpriced or overused or overrated as Vengeance or oversaturated as pendulum's kit, something DnB-ish is what I have in mind?

Sorry if I'm being too vague, and thanks in advance (:

Synthesize your own drums, it's the only way to go. But on a serious note, synthesizing your own drums, while is a long and tedious process to get down just right and perfect, can turn you out drums that are much better than just about any sample you can find on the internet - if you do it right. I know that you're specifically asking for sample packs, so I won't go into detail, but if you want me to help you out with synthesizing your own drums, just ask.

Oh don't worry about it mate, I'm not a musician

Danny Byrd's dnb sample pack is awesome. It has a bunch of hihats, kicks, snares and alot of breaks. And the samples haven't been overly compressed.

lolwat. it's extremely hard to create synthesized drums which have the warmth and realisticness of recorded samples (if it's not please tell me how). I'd rather spend my time learning how to process samples than creating them from scratch.

The Loopmasters packs can have some really good samples.

I would recommend the 'Danny Byrd' and the 'Total Science' packs, if you're doing something "DnB-ish"

You could always man up and get something like Blokhe4d: Drum & Bass Vol 8, but it's pretty damn processed, or at least from what I hear in the demo. (I don't personally have it)

If not that, then I guess you could go Prime Loops and try Future Drum & Bass Drums. Despite what the demo depicts, the samples sound like they could be used for any kind of dnb, even liquid. However, knowing Prime Loops (I've only tried their demo packs but I know their signature sound) the shots will be REALLY REALLY processed.

Hm. You should probably listen to someone that's actually giving you what you're asking for because I'm really not. ;)

Yeah, true, synthesizing your own drums is pretty hard and stuff, but if you spend enough time, you can get pretty realistic sounding drums... Take a listen to this snare I synthesized. I personally think it sounds pretty realistic, or at least it's working good with my current WIPs, so I really like it. Tell me what you think

Oh I have Danny Byrd, but still thanks for recommending it though (:

Definitely sounds like a snare, though I can hear it's synth roots. Sounds a bit too shallow to be like a studio recorded snare, but would fit perfectly with a synth heavy track. I'm guessing that's what you created it for?
