The Heavyocity Master Sessions Bundle Black Friday deal covers four percussion collections for $149, 62% off, with the offer ending Dec 18, 2026. It is an exclusive bundle of Heavyocity's Master Sessions line, all running in the Kontakt-powered engine.
Master Sessions is the maker's boutique line of scoring tools for professional composers. The libraries were recorded in New York City and each one focuses on specific instruments and ensembles.
Heavyocity says the series delivers an epic sound without the epic price.
The bundle holds four drum and percussion collections:
Every collection is a direct download only. Each ships with tempo-synced loops, menu and single kit presets, and the Stage for stereo placement.
Ensemble Drums has 7 multi-sampled ensembles and over 300 tempo-synced loops. Each ensemble has up to 10 drums played at once by 5 players. The kits mix taikos, roto toms, field bass drums, snares, concert bass drums and floor toms. Heavyocity added 24 more aggressive presets on top.
Ethnic Drum Ensembles has 6 ensembles and over 375 loops, with up to 12 drums performed at once by 7 players. The drums include daikos, bongos, congas, djembes, dumbeks, bodhrans, darbukas, batas, cajons and surdos. There are 28 extra aggressive kit presets.
Ensemble Metals has 12 ensembles and over 300 loops, captured with six players at once. The sources run from kegs and trash cans to railroad spikes and pipes.
Ensemble Woods has 11 ensemble kits and over 300 loops, also captured with six players at once. Sources include cajons, bamboo rods and struck acoustic guitars.
All four libraries share Heavyocity's own interface. It has global reverb, delay, distortion and chorus mod, plus per-drum or per-metal EQ and per-channel ADSR.
TriggerFX is playable for real-time control. Loop Mutator re-composes loops as you play. The Punish and Twist knobs are the signature controls.
The maker also tweaked, EQ'd, filtered and modulated the content for grittier, overdriven sounds and loops.
Ensemble Drums, Ethnic Drum Ensembles and Ensemble Metals run stand-alone and as VST, AU and AAX. Ensemble Woods lists stand-alone, VST, AU, DXi, AAX and RTAS.
The bundle needs Kontakt 5 (Player) version 5.5.1.451 or higher. Mac needs OS X 10.9 or higher, an Intel Core Duo and 2 GB RAM. PC needs Windows 7 or higher with the latest Service Pack, 32 or 64 bit, an Intel Core Duo or AMD Athlon 64 X2, and 2 GB RAM.
Disk space on NI lossless compression is 1.9 GB for Ensemble Drums, 1.96 GB for Ethnic Drum Ensembles, 1.5 GB for Ensemble Metals and 1.39 GB for Ensemble Woods.
