DrumGizmo is an open source, multichannel, multilayered, cross-platform drum plugin and stand-alone application. It enables you to compose drums in midi and mix them with a multichannel approach. It is comparable to that of mixing a real drumkit that has been recorded with a multimic setup.<ref >[https://www.drumgizmo.org/wiki/doku.php?id=start]</ref>

In the case of Zynthian, DrumGizmo comes a bit bare, with no drumkits that you have to install yourself. And then activate the LV2 presets.
The official kit source for DrumGizmo is at kits – DrumGizmo Wiki.
Here I also drew a description of the individual kits:
=== CrocellKit ===
The CrocellKit is the kit used by Danish metal band Crocell.
The kit consist of the following drums and cymbals:
* 1 kickdrum (with double pedal)
* 2 hanging toms
* 2 floor toms
* 1 snare
* 1 hihat
* 3 crash cymbals
* 1 ride cymbals
* 2 china cymbal
* 2 splash cymbals
=== DRSKit ===
DRSKit came to be as a collaboration between the DrumGizmo team and Jes Eiler of DRSDrums. Jes creates handcrafted drumkits under his own label with an attention to detail not often seen on the market.
We gave him a call and asked if he would supply a kit for us to record. And being the stand-up guy that he is, he offered to lend us an entire kit for free. The kit contains the following components (Left / right placements as seen by the drummer):
* 1 kickdrum
* 1 hanging tom
* 2 floor toms
* 1 snare
* 1 hihat: Paiste Formula 602 Medium hi-hat
* 2 crash cymbals
* Left: Paiste Giant Beat
* Right: Paiste Formula 602 (Lend to us by Erik)
* 1 ride cymbal: Paiste Formula 602 thin crash
The kit should be usable for everything from jazz to rock.
=== MuldjordKit ===
“The MuldjordKit is a Tama Superstar drumkit with all the bells and whistles. The samples for this kit was actually recorded all the way back in 2010 when I was recording / playing drums for the Sepulchrum debut album. When recording drums I always sample the kit in case we need a cymbal or a single drum hit here and there to patch up the recordings. It turns out that I sampled it so well that it can be used with DrumGizmo.” - Lars Muldjord.
The kit consist of the following drums and cymbals:
* 2 kickdrums
* 3 hanging toms
* 1 floor tom
* 1 snare
* 1 hihat
* 2 crash cymbals
* 2 ride cymbals
* 1 china cymbal
This should be considered a metal or rock kit.
=== The Aasimonster ===
The Aasimonster is a large deathmetal drumkit used to track the “Rise of the Rotten” record by the Danish deathmetal band DIE http://www.executionroom.com. Converted to 2.0 format by user Chaot4.
It contains the following components:
* 2 kickdrums
* 3 hanging toms
* 1 floor tom
* 2 16“ crash cymbals
* 1 18” china cymbal
* 2 small china cymbals (Stagg 8“ and 10”)
* 1 Zilbel
* 1 Ride cymbal.

And its description is as follows:
Hello world! This is an eight channel drumgizmo bank of a brand new 5th hand Stagg Gia serie drumkit (kick 18, Snare 14×5, Tom 12, Floor 14, along with pure finest cast-iron time tarnished genuine Pont-à-Mousson/saint-gobain cymbal kit. Captured throught a saffire pro 40 with Beta52a, I5, D2 x2, MK105 matched pair as overheads and M/S coupled EM800 with tweaked RB500 (with fethead triton) as room. No processing, just a time adjustment between close mikes and overhead. M/S room couple is unprocessed (though it may be clever to reverse the stereo or play it in mono. Dunno…) because that’s what they were made for: Distants… And witches are made of wood, duh?
=== Sommerhack 2016-Kit ===
This percussive kit was made in-situ at the Sommerhack 2016 hacker camp in Denmark.
Instruments:
Hand clap
Slapped chair
Large wooden log
Small glass hit with a spoon
Camera shutter
Metal coffee mug
Finger snap
The above kits can be downloaded from wiki of drumgizmo
or directly from storage Which paid off for me as some of the wiki links didn’t work.
=== SM MegaReaper Drumkit ===
Michael Osvald created these two kits from free drum samples in wav format. He described the creation in a post on his blog
=== Salamander DrumKit ===
The correct download link is a little difficult to find in the subsequent discussion, so they will put it right here.
=== JazzFunk DrumKit ===
This drumkit is orangetree samples conversion for drumgizmo. The xml files are in discussion
Audio samples are taken from orangetreesamples.com
This drumkit was the only one I couldn’t get working.
=== Tchackpoum DrumKit ===
James Peters make free acoustic drum bank for DrumGizmo, 1.7 GB, from sasmples on https://www.tchackpoum.fr/ 1
You can read more details here Free acoustic drum bank for DrumGizmo, 1.7 GB, round robin - Cockos Incorporated Forums
James Peters describes this kit as:
I think it’s well suited to rock, blues, metal, and so on. It’s probably not the best for jazz due to the lack of jazz-type articulations (no brushes used instead of sticks, etc.) It’ll probably take some EQ and compression to sculpt it just right. This is about as raw sounding as it gets; it’s good sounding, but raw. It’s a very good starting point for using reasonable amounts of EQ/compression any mixing engineer would have to do on a good neutral recording of real acoustic drums.
