Kev's Drum Kit
“Some of these kits are DIRTY and I love it. Such a wide variety of kits here from the super useful rock kits, to the more cinematic kits to my absolute favorite… The Synth Percussion kit. I’ve been getting great results making my own pulses with these and the onboard step sequencer and delay. Dudes great work - this library is insane. ”
-Producer/Composer/Sound Designer
Watch & Listen to Kev’s Drum Kit
The Core Concept
Kev’s Drum Kit started as a deliberately simple idea:
one raw, unprocessed drum kit, recorded in a tight drum room using stereo room mics. A no-nonsense Ludwig rock kit - classic setup with three toms, cymbals, a solid snare, and a big, punchy kick. Honest, tight, and raw.
But simplicity is just the starting point.
From that single Main Kit, the library expanded into over 40 distinct playable kits - ranging from lightly treated and natural to heavily processed, mangled, and characterful. Each kit transforms the same original recordings into entirely new sonic personalities.
Use the Layer Mixer for instant and easy mixing!
Kev’s Drum Kit is programmed to take full advantage of the Layer Mixer on the Main Page (Page 1) of the Triumph Audio Engine, allowing you to quickly customize gain, pan, and tuning for each layer.
This is especially useful when shaping the Drum Kit patches:
Layer 1 controls kick & toms
Layer 2 controls snares
Layer 3 controls cymbals
From our main kits, we created custom-programmed loops:
Over 600 total loops: 300 main loops and 300 MOD-FX variations.
Mod wheel control morphs loops from dry to heavily effected in real time.
Styles include straight grooves, indie & rock swagger, hip-hop, cinematic hybrid, big beat, full-tilt industrial rhythms, and many more!
Same groove. Endless redesigns.
All loops in Kev’s Drum Kit ship with matching MIDI files, giving you full drag-and-drop control over every rhythm.
Drop a groove into your DAW, reassign it to any kit, change the feel, swap sounds, or completely rebuild the pattern!
Both Formats Included: Kontakt & Sample Pack!
“I’m absolutely loving Kev’s Drum Kit!! Every instance is mad tweakable! Just by using the filter modulation and all the effect parameters... I just used it on an orchestral cue, it inspired the whole direction. Super deep but instant gratification! 10 out of 10.”
Credits: 4 billion streams multi-platinum with Duran Duran, Elton John, Collective Soul, Perry Farrell, Megadeth, and more.
A true Multi-Format Library
Sample Pack
Every copy of Kev’s Drum Kit includes a complete Sample Pack, giving you instant access to the 840 original WAV recordings of our Main Kit & Loops.
The Sample Pack contains:
209 individual drum hits from the Main Kit:
Bass drum
Snare
Toms
Cymbals (bells, crashes, hi-hats)
Sticks
Multiple dynamic layers for every hit, captured from pp to ff for expressive programming and realistic performance.
631 tempo-synced drum loops:
317 Main Loops
314 Mod-FX variations - effect-driven versions of the core drum loops, re-imagined through modulation, delays, distortion, evolving FX, and more.
Drop sounds straight into your DAW or sampler - No Kontakt required!
Kontakt Section
Patches and Folders - Kev’s Drum Kit features a curated collection of 163 patches and 38 loop MIDI files. We’ve organized it all into various subfolders to maximize ease and accessibility:
Drum Kits (42)
Loops (41)

Kev’s Drum Kit Specifics:
Use the MOD Wheel! Use the MOD wheel in a Loop MOD FX patch to go from a less/not affected version of a loop into an effects-laden version! For any non MOD FX patches, use the MOD wheel to control filter cutoff.
Use Velocity Layers! All Drum Kit patches in Kev’s Drum Kit are meticulously multi-sampled, featuring multiple velocity layers and variations per patch for expressive, dynamic performance.

“In typical Triumph Audio style, they’ve taken the simple concept of an “indie drum set” and built out something interesting and versatile. Kev’s Drum Kit not only gives you the punk garage band sound, but also gives great cinematic sounds as well. Hits, pulses, kits… It’s a veritable grab bag of options that will keep things sounding fresh whenever you need inspiration.”

“Kev’s Drum Kit is such a blast to play around with. It really sparks some cool creative ideas, thanks to its drum grooves and those clean, tight kits that you can slip into any genre. Whether you’re writing songs or doing something fun with scores, especially using those loop options, it’s just a great addition to your sound library.”
