Old School Metal Drum Sound at the Tip of Your Fingers!

KVLT Drums II is a Drum Sample Library catered to cover all areas of 80’s/90’s/2000’s Underground Metal Drum Sound. Unpolished beauty, raw natural sound.

Whether you’re after chasing the sound of Norwegian fjords, Buzzsaw Sludge of Sweden, swampy marshlands of Tampa, Thrash attack of the Bay Area, ear-piercing brutality of East Coast Death Metal or Straight-Edge breakdowns of Mid 90’s Belgium; KVLT Drums II can cater that drum sound.

The graphic user interface allows you to process the kit individually or in groups. You can adjust gain, pan & individual mic levels per each and every drum. Meaning that you can nail the perfect blend of close mics, adjust the levels for overheads, room & FX channels. Total control over every channel.

Drum panels makes it organized and allows free control on panel placement and also ables you to choose to see and adjust only the drums you need to adjust not coggle the entire window with dozens of buttons and knobs which you don't really always need. Organizing buttons on the bottom bar (open all, close all, position in grid, open mix/FX/Routing tab for all) Makes handling large amounts of panels a breeze for mixing and setup!

Mic Features:
To ensure full control over each and every channel, KVLT Drums II was captured with multiple close mics, FX mics along with Overheads & Room Channels.

Close Mics:
Snare & shells: SM57 (1073 & Aural Exciter)
Cymbals: U47 FET (G9 & 55B)
Kick: SM57 & U47 FET

The Hell Mic:
This channel is the glue to make the kit sound even tighter together. Placed flat on the floor and compressed to death, The Hell Mic unites the kit.
Hell Mic: SM57 (Distressor, Limiter)

The Trash Mic:
If the Hell Mic is bringing the glue, the Trash Mic is bringing the grit. Bringing up those nasty overtones and that 4-track demo feel. Blend it in to get nice distorted harmonics or let this one dominate for Pure Fucking Armageddon.
Trash Mic: Unknown Talkback Mic (1073 & EQ)

Overheads:
Overheads is the crucial element to each and every drum sound. Some like to get the full picture out of Overheads while some like to carve out the lows and let it sparkle in the highs. We gave you the fullest, yet brightest possible starting point for Overhead sound so regardless of your approach, you are one-step closer in nailing a good Overhead sound.
Overhead Mics: Stereo Pair of KM184’s (V72 & 1084)

Room Mics:
Room Channel captured the small yet punchy sound of the brand new Soundstakk Studios. Nulled away from the kit, the room mics added weight and depth into the drums.

There's 2 ways in KVLT Drums II To adjust MIDI notes.

First one is on the individual drum panels, which makes it easy to see which note is for which drum / cymbal (hihat Closed / Pedal / Open etc).

The other one is MIDI map editor which allows you to see all the MIDI notes on one matrix and adjust them at once, and also load different MIDI map presets to match some major drum sample libraries and MIDI packs.

MIDI editor also shows played MIDI notes so it helps you to map your MIDI notes, for example, with an electronic drumkit that often times doesn't follow any standard for notes.
