Songs For The Deaf
127 reviews
Get the legendary Dave Grohl drum sound from QOTSA’s Songs For The Deaf. These boomy, aggressive samples were tracked in a tight, heavily dampened booth—engineered specifically to explode at high velocities. Uncompromising rock power, dialed in to smash through your mix.

“It’s hard to pick a favorite pack. Every new one I try sounds exactly like the drums they are trying to replicate! El camino and Dookie have been in heavy rotation in my writing sessions these days.”
"These samples are absolutely gorgeous. I love to mix & match various overheads, snare bottom, and room samples on every mix that I do."
— Jesse Ray Ernster (Mix Engineer)Doja Cat, Burna Boy, 1x Grammy Winner
"Enjoying these samples, especially The Wood Snare Collection! I used the Yamaha Beech on Judas Priest - blending it with Scott’s snare worked really well.
I’ve received a lot of compliments on the snare sound!"
— Andy Sneap (Producer/Guitarist)Judas Priest, Dream Theater
"I’ve got tens of thousands of drum samples, but most are either over-processed or too raw to use easily. The snare samples from Just Add Drums hit the perfect balance - ready to go yet flexible enough to shape to my sound. They’ve quickly become a staple in my setup."
— Chris Baseford (Producer/Mixer)Avril Lavigne, Nickelback, Rob Zombie, Daughtry
"I’ve been using the kits on all our latest demos and they sound killer! Nice work!!"
— Jack Collins (Guitarist/Songwriter)Dead Poet Society
"Amazing samples clearly made with care. I've used them in recent sessions and got great feedback on the drum sound. Highly recommend to any songwriter or producer looking for fresh, high-quality drums. It’s a go-to for me now."
— Max Helyer (Guitarist/Songwriter)You Me At Six
"Just Add Drums libraries are a game-changer. They are an essential tool for any producer who values quality and respect for the musical performance."

The El Camino package has brought a perma-grin to my face since I got it. Think I'm mostly using the blended mix, and couldn't be happier. Sounds big and whatever the opposite of sterile is

Amazing product, phenomenal customer service!
I purchased this set as a fan of Slipknot and I figured it would be a great introduction to the company. Well, I got the wrong version and reached out to the company after explaining that I wanted to trigger them with an e-kit. Chris walked me through every step to get things set up properly. Having set it up, it works flawlessly with my e-kit and the samples themselves sound outstanding, especially the cymbals which are often the weakest parts of these sets. I love the set and am looking forward to getting more! I have to reiterate, as good as the drum sounds are, the customer service is even better.
