Normally, you’re going to want to avoid clicking with your mouse on a picture of a drum kit on your screen. How many sounds do you need? What styles are you looking for? How much memory do you have available (some packs can get huge)? So there’s a bunch of reasons to use VST drum samples, rather than spending all the time and energy it would take to record or synthesize your own. You can also slice and dice the sounds and loops to create samples that you can play with a pad or a trigger with your hybrid drum set. Additionally, these can be loaded to a drum multipad or full electronic drum set and played live.

So what can you do with them?įirst off, you can select the sounds you want, build your best sequences, and also edit them to get yourself the perfect sounding beat. Many also come with full drum loops that you’re free to use in your compositions. They come in the form of sample packs, simulating either a single kit or drum machine’s sounds, to massive packs with thousands of sounds. Drum VSTs are virtual instruments that you can play, sequence, and otherwise manipulate in your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW).
