We provide multi-layered round robin drum samples—high-resolution recordings designed to capture the natural dynamics and subtle variations of a real drummer. These samples include:

- Multiple velocity layers for expressive dynamic response

- Round robin variations to avoid robotic repetition

- Multi-mic recordings (e.g., close, overhead, room) for full mixing flexibility

Note: We do not offer pre-mixed one-shot samples.

One-shot drum samples are individual audio files that capture a single hit or strike of a drum, percussion, or electronic drum sound. Each file represents one isolated sound.

Most of our samples are processed so they are ready to be added to your mix!

In 2025 we will start to include the raw files as well as the processed files - if they are included this will be noted on the product.

We don't offer support for SSD5.5 but you might be able to load third party samples (WAV) into it if you have the full version. Please see the official tutorial here: https://support.stevenslatedrums.com/hc/en-us/articles/4403633569559-How-To-Add-3rd-Party-Samples-In-SSD5-5-To-Create-Your-Own-Kit

Yes, you can—but with limitations.
Logic Sampler can load the samples, but it doesn't fully support the multi-mic options. Because of that, we haven't created specific presets for it.

For the best experience in Logic, we recommend using Slate Trigger or Kontakt Player instead.

We don't natively support Superior Drummer 3 as the current version only allows for the integration of third-party as one-shot samples. Unfortunately, it doesn't support loading the full velocity and round-robin layers included in our packs.

Kontakt Full (Native Instruments Kontakt) is the complete version of the software sampler. It allows you to load and edit any third-party or custom sample libraries, use advanced scripting, and access the full range of features for sound design.

Kontakt Player is a free version that only works with officially licensed "Kontakt Player" libraries. It cannot load non-Player libraries unless they are in demo mode with time limitations.

If a library requires Kontakt Full, you’ll need to purchase the full version to use it without restrictions. If it’s labeled Kontakt Player, it will work in the free version.

Installing and registering your Kontakt Player library is done in Native Access. Click here for full instructions on the Native Instruments website.

Yes you can! Our Kontakt Instruments support CC4 MIDI data for Hi-Hat control.

If you’re seeing the word “Demo” in Kontakt, it means you’re trying to run a Just Add Drums instrument that was designed for the full version of Kontakt—not the free Kontakt Player.

All of our Kontakt Instruments have a fixed MIDI mapping to General MIDI.

These are individual WAV files which you can add to any sampler you choose. We have given you all of the channels, velocity layers and round robins separately for maximum customisation.

These are .TCI files for use in Slate Trigger 2. You will need the full of Slate Trigger 2 in order to use these drum samples. The free versions of Slate Trigger 2 doesn't allow the loading of third party samples.
