The 10-ton monster of drums and percussion, this library redefines the term “heavy” with a blend of mega-processed acoustic drum hits, ensembles, and slams. Whether you need drums to accompany ultra-low tuned rock and metal or punctuate the most epic of epic trailers, Colossal Hybrid Drums does exactly what you’d expect, and nothing less.

Created using both real recordings and physical modeling synthesis, the library includes three primary kits: the drum kit ensemble (kick, snare, toms, hihats, and cymbals), the world ensemble (five distinct drums), and the mega tom ensemble (six unique drums.) Their massive sound doesn’t mean low-detail either: all hits are sampled with up to 8x dynamics and 10x round robins. Composers can drive and mold the final sound for easier mixing (or bigger slamming) with the 8 easy UI controls.

The acoustic material comes from Andrew’s personal collection as well as libraries like Tokyo Scoring Drum Kits, Forest Frame Drums, and Groove Bias, combined with all-new synthesized percussion and drum elements.
