Drummix FREE

Hi guys 

It is now 4 years since I released MyDrumset and since then the name has changed to Drummix with several professional products! MyDrumset was made as a test to see if I could make such a complex plugin. 

The recording of the drums was done very quickly with only me on everything from drumming to engineering. As you can imagine that is not a perfect way to record a drum kit and if you add the fact that the drums weren't tuned, one of the cymbals had a crack in it, the heads were old and I did everything in about 2 hours, it's nothing even close to the sound of the Drummix line of plugins. Still, I released it as a free public beta just for fun and the response has been marvellous. Not only did this plugin beat two of the well-known brands in an anonymous poll, but it also got raving user reviews and was even reviewed in Sound on Sound! 

The beta version had 3 presets: Rock, Rock Olympic and 70′s. The drums on all presets are a Ludwig Fab Four but on the olympic version I used an old Olympic snare drum. The 70′s preset was the same drum kit with a blanket over the toms and snare. The sound of these recordings has been used by thousands of musicians / engineers and has for many a sought after "indie" sound. 

Well, I thought this old BETA version needed an update! 

All the limitations of MyDrumset are now removed: 

* The interface is completely new and very similar to the other commercial 
Drummix plugins 

* I've added mute, solo, phase and panning 

* I have put all three preset's into one plugin (previously 2) 

* I have included a stereo version of the plugin for a quicker setup. No 
need to mess with outputs. 

* The drums now start on C1 

* The drums are now closer to GM map 

* The hihat switching is now included 

* Low CPU and RAM usage 

You can read more info and download the plugin here:

A got a PM that a great band who needs a little attention has used the drums on this song:

I hope this satisfies the wait! 

Best regards

    Bluenoise,   I'd like to check this out, see if I can get it set up.  Smaples sound good.  Looks like you've put in alot of work here sir!   So is it that there is one kit or free? which one?  Then we buy the others at $30 right?  (rock/metal etc...)   Or is it the older beta version of mydrumset that is free to try?

    ChuckC: There is one kit for free right now which is an old recording I did 4 years ago just to check if I could do the plug. It sounds interesing and could work fine for Indie or rock music. It has few samples pr drum but it has outputs for all microphones and sounds quite nice. www.bluenoiseplugins.com/plugins/drummix/beta-edition.html The commercial plugins cost 30 dollars each and sounds much better and has more information.

    Hi guys I have fixed a small bug in the plugin that made the Hihat not work properly for the 70's preset. Just download it again using the link Shareit sent you:-) Bjarte
