The dm 307 Black Friday deal covers Heavyocity's Kontakt drum library at $99, 66% off, with the offer ending Dec 18, 2026. It pairs modular synth drums, live percussion and processed classic analog drum machines in one instrument.
The library holds more than 3,600 sounds and loops across 1500+ presets. The maker aims it at electronic, hip hop, industrial, ethnic and cinematic beats.
The download is 7.5 GB uncompressed, or 4.8 GB on disk with NI lossless compression. Here is what the maker lists:
Some of the multis are beats made by DJ/producers Kaiserdisco, Martin Eyerer, Mendo, Pirupa and Uner, plus cinematic composers Joe Trapanese, Jason Graves and Kevin Riepl. You can tweak them to taste.
The Grid is a 5-voice drum machine with 8 programmable patterns. You build a groove by clicking steps.
Stack 5 grid presets in a performance multi and each part gets its own FX, modulators and envelopes.
The live percussion was recorded over nearly a year. The signal chain was all analog: API, Grace and Neve mic pres and Manley EQs. The instruments run from congas and bongos to small metals, triangles and a range of drum kits.
The classic analog drum machine sounds were captured through Neve, Wunder and Chandler mic pres. They were then processed with outboard gear from UA, Eventide, Dramastic Audio and Dangerous Audio. The maker describes the result as punchy, crisp and dynamic.
The modular synth drums come from custom rigs built on VCOs, Vactrol filters, vacuum tube compressors, vacuum-tube distortion and analog bit designers. The maker says all sound shaping happened in the analog domain.
There are three effect levels. Master FX covers Reverb, Delay, Distortion, Modulation, Twist and Punish. Trigger Performance Effects sit in the middle, and each sound has its own ADSR, filter, EQ and tune.
Advanced Trigger FX are switchable in real time. You set how fast an effect engages and releases, or turn on the sequence button to modulate it with a 32-step sequencer. Punish and Twist add drive across everything.
Tempo sync is automatic. Dragging a loop's MIDI into your sequencer is drag-and-drop, and keyswitches trigger effects and stutters.
Loop Menus are mapped as breakout presets. You can play a full loop from a single key or mix layers from different loops in one preset.

The maker's minimum specs are Mac OS X 10.7 on an Intel Core Duo with 2 GB RAM, or Windows 7 with the latest Service Pack (32/64 bit) on an Intel Core Duo or AMD Athlon 64 X2 with 2 GB RAM.
