Spend more time making music instead of trying to find a decent drum or percussion sound. Accomplishing great drum sound requires significant effort, even when you are highly skilled for the task and have the best quality drum recording to start with.
We spent hours upon hours painstakingly editing and carefully mixing drums from multitrack recordings, so you don’t have to.
Taking a perfect blend of close, overhead, and room-miked drums, then expertly sculpting them for a robust, punchy, natural-sounding drum and percussion set, are bound to fit right into your mix!
Be ready to groove in minutes. Just load the Handy Drums Reggae plugin, throw in your desired midi reggae groove (midi loops available separately), and that’s all. We did all the other time-consuming stuff for you—a finished drum sound right out of the box. You are free to focus on the musical aspects of the track.
The intuitive interface makes tweaks a breeze.
PRACTICAL, INTUITIVE, EASY-TO-USE INTERFACE
“Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.” - Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Handy Drums do not require a complicated manual to use. An elaborate design of over 50 samplers and smart algorithms power your seamless experience behind the simple user interface.

Simple and immediate UI saves time. – COMPUTER MUSIC
MULTIPLE DYNAMIC LEVELS
Each drum, percussion instrument, and cymbal was sampled at multiple dynamic levels to ensure the instrument’s fullest dynamic range when played back. Handy Drums Latin Percussion contains up to 13 dynamic levels per instrument.
The samples respond accordingly with a very realistic sound and response. – RECORDING MAGAZINE
Throughout our tests, we never noticed any clipping or struggling to keep pace with our shifting tempo, even when aggressively swinging between extreme bpm and more leisurely paced plods. – COMPUTER MUSIC
ROUND ROBIN
Up to 20 samples per dynamic level
When a human strikes a drum, each subsequential stroke is ever so slightly different from the one preceding, no matter how consistently they are played. That’s why a human ear can instantly tell the difference between a roll played by a real person and a single sample being looped.
Each drum, percussion instrument and cymbal has been sampled numerous times at every dynamic level. During playback, no sample is repeated sequentially, but a different sample is triggered.
This culminates in the impression of a drummer hitting each drum with minor variations each time. Something many other ‘realistic’ VIs never quite nail. – COMPUTER MUSIC
24BIT SAMPLES
All Handy Drums samples come in 24bit wav file format for the ultimate resolution and sound quality.
IMMACULATELY-SAMPLED ACOUSTIC DRUMS
To achieve larger-than-life yet authentic natural-sounding drums and percussion, every step of the sampling process is critical. Starting with the instrument tuning, every component was carefully treated before even a single note was played.
They are recorded using the highest-quality microphones, preamps, and A/D converters to preserve every minor detail.
Handy Drums sound like an actual real instrument being played right in front of you in a room instead of a bunch of individual components sounding in their own isolated spaces.
We achieved realism by recording the full breadth of acoustic drums and percussion and their natural ambiance, then meticulously edited and mixed them in the post-production.
