    Best NEW plug-ins for hip hop drums/production?

    Sign in to disable this ad
    Wondering if anyone knows what the best NEW plugins are for hip hop -mainly drums. I am already aware of Rob Papen's Subboom & Punch, Beat Kingz , Big Fish Audio's the mashine and Playa.
    Also I find that most plugin sounds I preview (on the market over a year or so) are already sounding old -production sound wise. I am seeking newer hot plug-ins made by sound designers that KNOW hip hop.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Personally I think the best drums are from samplepacks and tweaked to how you want 'em.

    So if you're feeling like your plugins aren't doing the job, I'd recommend switching your focus to some good samplepacks out there. And just use whatever your favorite sampler is to sequence them. I use the one built in to Studio One. There's also Battery (which comes w/ some REALLY good drums), and also Poise is a good small one (MPC-esqe vst).

    Battery is cool it has some good drums... But yeah sample packs are probably your best best... Boi-1da has a drum kit that's free on his site and it has allllll kinds of dope drums in it.

    I have to agree ppl think plug-in are going to do your job for you..part of being a producer is sound design even at the basic level layering drum one-shots and tweak,tweak till you have about 2-3 drumkits you can depend on while producing
    find some video on youtube on making your own drum samples,layering etc....
