Listening to the drumkits in hydrogen - they seem nice, but not _that_

to work with linuxsampler. Ross Garfield 2 seem quite a reasonable
price: http://www.bigfishaudio.com/4DCGI/detail.html?589 However, I'm
not so sure how I would make use of the multi-layers or get them to
sound more humanised - maybe playing with a midi keyboard?
Alternatively (better) - any good soundfonts or hydrogen kits for
realistic drum sounds?

Hello James,
http://www.autodafe.net/gscw-drum-kit-for-hydrogen-drum-machine.html
Especially GSCW2 is nice.
http://linux.autostatic.com/hydrogen/BigMono.h2drumkit
That's the Big Mono kit from Analogue Drums:
http://www.analoguedrums.com/details-bm.php
I got the personal approval from the owner of Analogue Drums to host a
h2drumkit package of this kit.
And then there's the infamous ns7kitfree package. Unfortunately it's not
free anymore: http://www.naturaldrum.com/
However, there are Hydrogen xml files available and I have a h2drumkit
package of it. Can't host it publicly though.
AFAIK these are the best free/used-to-be-free acoustic drum kits
available for Hydrogen.
Gearslutz and Ultimate Metal [1] forums have drum sample stickies. No
licensing information for most of them.

In any way, the reason why you can't seem to be able to find "nice"
drum sounds is because not many of the freely available samples are
heavily and carefully layered. For a dynamic and "full" sound, LAYER A
LOT (minus bad reverb).
Else, sit on the throne. But even then, you'd definitely want to add
transient triggers, and then we go back to "nice" samples yet again.
What a nice recursion!
Thanks for the pointers everyone. Lots to check out!
Indeed, I did put together the soundfonts from the free MDK samples,
but that kit, nice as it is, has the drawback of no tom samples..
James
kb6 is a real BIG resource of Free Drum Samples
http://samples.kb6.de/downloads.php
but I cant say anything about quality of the samples, you need to try it
yourself, if you wone know it.

Hi Hermann,
Those are mainly kits from drum machines, practically no acoustic drums.
For those interested, I have a tarball with all the available kits from
KB6. Send me an off-list mail if you' re interested. All KB6 kits are
Public Domain btw.
Best,
Jeremy
