“We wanted to create a library that sounds like a record before you even touch a fader—but offers the flexibility of a multitrack session.” – Toontrack Team
The Core Library, recorded at the legendary Galaxy Studios in Belgium, was never intended to be a "styled" drum kit. It wasn't recorded to sound specifically like a 1970s funk record or a 1990s grunge album. Instead, it was recorded to be pristine, dynamic, and neutral. The goal was to capture the drums with such clarity and fidelity that the user could then shape them into any genre imaginable. The Core Library is the raw clay, waiting for the sculptor.
Includes 25 snares, 16 kicks, and 32 cymbals.
Designed as a complete drum production studio, it provides the raw material necessary for everything from subtle acoustic jazz to high-gain metal.
The library was recorded at Galaxy Studios in Belgium, specifically in the 330-square-meter Galaxy Hall. This room is famous for its near-perfect acoustics and an incredibly low noise floor of just 14 dBA.
Whether you are writing indie rock in a bedroom, scoring a film in a studio, or triggering via a Roland TD-50 on a live stage, the Core Library delivers. It is deep enough for engineers who want to move every fader and simple enough for writers who just want to click "Rock - Ballad - 85 BPM" and start writing.
