Sound better with these 8 powerful, punchy, deep and thick kick drum samples recorded with the venerable Neve 1073 preamp. Perfect for helping your kit punch through a busy mix.
The sound of your drums makes or breaks your mix. Lacklustre drums will leave your mix sounding dull, lifeless and unexciting. Sound better now with our custom drum sample packs.
Custom recorded and refined by Audio Alpha, the Kick Drum Sample Pack features 8 powerful and punchy kick drum samples. Each sample was recorded using a premium recording path utilising the famous Neve 1073 preamp for a warm, thick sound full of character, punch and impact. First designed and released in the 1970s, and with multiple re-issues and clones appearing over its 50-year history, the 1073 preamp has become synonymous with warm sounding kick and snare drum recordings. Nearly every professional studio has at least one in their analog hardware arsenal.
Load these kick samples into a drum trigger plugin or sampler for phase-accurate real-time triggering and super-charge your drum sound! Suitable for all genres of music including Rock, Indie, EDM, Contemporary Christain Music, Houses of Worship broadcast mixes and Pop.
The Kick Drum Sample Pack includes:
CB Big Kick
CB Lo Kick
CB Lo Kick Accent
CB Sub Kick
CB Thick Kick
CB Thick Kick Accent
CB Woody Kick
CB Woody Kick 2
Each sample has been digitallyprocessed to maximise its tone, character and punch. Each sample has also been phase-checked and supplied in mono to ensure a sturdy, solid and balanced low end. Keep that low-end centred!
Some samples within the pack feature harder hitting ‘accents’ or alternatives to create a natural sound, avoid the ‘machine gun’ effect and help match the natural dynamics of the live-recorded drums.
Suitable for use in one of our advanced mix templates utilising real-time drum replacement, or simply use within your own session via a sampler to take advantage of the polished sound of these kicks.
