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.
+
+

Author is Sardonicus (sardonicus [at] free.fr)
+
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 ===

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.
