Drum Designer: Drum Synth Plugin by UVI

Drum Designer uses four engines: Kick, Snare, Clap and Cymbal. Each one combines a large collection of component samples with custom 3D wavetables, filtering and DSP. The Kick Designer splits the kick into Body and Tone sections. You can choose a sound for each component, adjust its pitch, gain, pan and keytracking, and set its LP and HP filters independently. You can also change the phase of the tone and lengthen it, and draw custom envelopes in the Tone Amp editor.

The Snare engine adds two noise layers with the same level of control, and the Clap engine splits the clap into three shot layers plus a noise layer. Each shot can be edited for sound, time, gain, pan and pitch. The Cymbal engine uses two noise and metallic texture layers and can be used for hi-hats, crashes, rides, shakers and more.

The built-in sequencer provides eight engines (one kick, two snares, one clap and four cymbals). Volume, Pan and Pitch sequencers run up to eight bars long at resolutions up to 1/64t. You can control Time, Gain, Pan, Pitch and sends for each engine, then finish the sound with bus effects including a Compressor, EQ, Delay and Reverb. Sequences can be dragged out as MIDI to your desktop or DAW.

The library includes 5,700+ samples, 2,500+ drum presets and 398 kits, which gives you a starting point before you design your own sounds.
