Synth Drums Black Friday pricing takes 91% off Wave Alchemy's drum sample library, leaving it at $6 until Nov 15, 2026. It holds 5,930 24-bit samples recorded from ten vintage synthesizers.
The maker calls it the most comprehensive and intricately designed drum library it has made. Each hit was crafted by hand, sound by sound.
One note from Wave Alchemy: this download does not include the Ableton Live pack.
Ten vintage synths were programmed to make the sounds:
The library is split into three sections, so you can pick how much processing you want on a hit.
The unprocessed samples are the source recordings, kept as they came straight from the synth. That gives you clean material to shape in your own signal chain.
The special processed section follows the same folder structure as the processed one. Wave Alchemy bounced these samples through vinyl and 1/4 inch tape to add character, tone, warmth and punch.
The tape set has 723 samples at multiple saturation levels, recorded via a Studer A80 MK1 tape machine. The vinyl set has 675 samples, recorded via a Neumann VMS 70 vinyl mastering lathe.
The drum kits folder holds ready-to-play kits, mapped for these software samplers:
The Kontakt kits need the full version of Kontakt. The free Kontakt Player will not run them.
All told, the pack is 973 MB of 24-bit content. Wave Alchemy says the attention to detail makes it a useful, creative addition to any electronic music producer's toolkit.
