Musical Sampling Boutique Drums Medusa
Drum Kit & Sound Design Virtual Instruments for Kontakt Full
Medusa is a modern ensemble drum library created for trailer producers as well as film, game, and television composers. We also made it a point to smack the living snot out of the drums for the top velocities.
Getting the mix presets dialed-in was just as crucial and took the most time during Medusa’s production cycle to really get right. Hermes is a tight, punchy mix. Centaur is the all-rounder while Zeus takes excellent advantage of the room tone. The Gorgon mix is a hyped, massive, punchy mix designed specifically for trailers. It’s huge.
We created the Concussion Hits patch which is comprised of 49 unique, aggressively-processed hits designed to be used as massive accents and low-end support. We’ve also included a WAVs folder of those hits and more for those who prefer that workflow (also makes sense for longer samples like risers).
To complete the percussive side of Medusa, we created The Pulses patch - which includes a collection of live hybrid rhythms meant to act as detailed background layers in your percussion tracks. Want a bit more involvement with those grooves? Move that mod wheel up!
We've also included an arsenal of playable sound design patches which include drones, keys, guitars, basses, synths, cue starters, etc. - all kinds of material for you to start rippin’ tracks right out the gate.
