arnevr Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Hi, I'm looking for a library where you can create nice atmospheric drumbeats for my film music. Something like this (the drums) Spectrasonics - Stylus RMX Demos - I Can Hear You Does anyone know something for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Wow, those are nice drums indeed, but I think they only give you the loops, it doesn't let you edit it, which takes a lot of the versatility. Try Storm Drum or Percussive Adventures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnevr Posted December 23, 2007 Author Share Posted December 23, 2007 I already own stormdrum, but I can't really make nice electronic sounding drum loops with that... Stormdrum is really great for Classical Drums... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhomas Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 The reason that those drums sound the way they do is that they've taken the drum samples and processed them. In the case of the higher-pitched drums (not the low-bass kick drums), which I assume are the ones you're interested in, it sounds to me like they've done a high-pass filter on the drums, added lots of chorus and reverb, and done some stereo effects. To do that sort of thing, you'd need a sequencer: Cubase, Logic Pro, etc. Alternatively, you could use someone else's drums. One possibility to try would be Freesound: freesound :: home page They have quite a selection of copyleft drum samples there, both loops and individual hits. You'll have to wade through a lot of stuff to find what you want, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnevr Posted December 25, 2007 Author Share Posted December 25, 2007 Wow that website is really nice... But I can't really find samples which sound like the sample I gave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikolas Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 I'm not sure if you already have the Stylus (which would also be a choice, as it's a great "library"), but other than that the main thing is to get a loop, or create your own (I have DFH Superior for example) and a few plug-ins. Huge compression, high pass, or other things as well, as nhomas proposed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
