- Best Vsts For Hip Hop
Your initial post is already quite old by now, but I still want to give you some tips and tricks I learned in the past few years producing lo-fi hip hop. First off, you specifically asked for instruments. But you can honestly use every instrument (guitars, keys, synths etc.). Alot of the free drum samples out there are “taster packs” of the full, paid version, so the quality and diversity of the sounds can be really impressive. Below are the best free drum sample packs in 2020, that will give you incredible drum or percussion sounds without you ever reaching for your wallet. Djinndrum — free lofi drum kit; Drum PRO — free drum machine for hip-hop; Line of Legends — another hip-hop drum kit; DrumMic’a — created by Sennheieser as a showcase of their drum microphones (huge library) Obvious as it may be, free drum software is no where near the level of the paid options on the list in terms of tone.
Having a good drum plugin is essential to your mix, whether you’re sampling or playing a drum synth it provides the blueprint to your tracks. We don’t all have the convenience of an in-house drummer and the control you have over the sound when using digital drums is unrivalled.
We’ve collected ten of the greatest drum plugins available so you’re never at a loss producing your beats.
If you don’t have a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) to insert plugins into we collected our ten favourite free DAWs here or if you just want to play around with them there’s a great list of VST hosts here.
