Fjordheim Drums is a realistic sounding vintage drum set. Breathing life into rhythm sections and midi grooves across a broad range of musical genres
Experience the combination of over 20 years of experience recording drums, a world class drummer, great acoustics and cutting-edge sampling technology.
A Rogers Holiday 1968 set, recorded through a collection of vintage mic and ribbons, Neve and Trident preamps.
A vintage drum set recorded in a 80m2 sounding recording studio with one of Norways most renowned drummers, Børge Fjordheim.
Two distinct signature effects are included in the patches: The MPC BEAT and the AMPEX601. They sound remarkable on their own, but adds a very cool edge when mixed in with the other signals.

Realistic Drums That Transcends
We love sampler instruments that sound human. This library represents a giant leap forward in what we thought was possible with sampling drums and perc.
The sets have 3 round robins and a variable amount of velocity layers. Rolls and bows doesn’t have round-robins, but often several variations triggered from velocity.
The trademark of this library is the variation between the hits. Every single stroke is unique and performed differently than the previous stroke. Emulating the natural variability of a live drummer’s playstyle.

ADVANCED TIPS AND TRICKS
Where to begin…
We use this library on every project, we love it, and discover new things every time. Sometimes we just bang on the bass drum, sometimes we just use the beautiful cymbals. Other times, we use the full set. maybe through a compressor plug-in.
It can do so many things. It is super-realistic. For example by experimenting with the ampex601 line and the spring reverb impulse responses, you can closely replicate the diverse drum sounds that Lana Del Rey has utilized over the years. The room mics provides beautiful acoustic sounds and the MPC line for more chip-punch. Mix the lines to your preferred taste.

Open - close hi-hat script
HI-HAT PROGRAMMING
An additional built-in script feature allows the open hi-hat sound to quickly mute when the closed hi-hat is struck. This functionality is located in the second script-slot within Kontakt’s EDIT mode.

THE LENGHT OF EACH SOUND
For really detailed drum programming, a crucial parameter to consider is the release slider. By default, all drums resonate fully, but if you require shorter sounds or need to reduce voice count on dense MIDI tracks, it’s advisable to experiment with the release slider settings. You’ll find it in the ADSR controls, by clicking on VOL or DYN.
CHANNEL STRIPS
DRUM WIDTH AND EQ
Further tweaking can be done on individual tracks by using the channel strips. For example the width control allows you to control stereo image of each track. Sometimes a hard mono sound on close, mpc2000 or ampex601 signal can be cool. Other times it might be nice to go wider on room mics for example. The default is how we think it sounds best.
Some drums, some cymbal rolls and drum rolls are copied on all three drumsets for ease of access and because it might be useful to have them available on all sets.
“there’s a distinct liveliness to the Fordheim samples that begins to sing when driven by MIDI from a human performance. It’s that dancing around the grid vibe, but there’s certainly some kind of magic in the way the samples have been performed, captured, and programmed in the engine.
This one will be a favorite for a long time to come.” — P.C
“They are wild and precise and primal – just wonderful. It’s like I’ve found my soul mate. I say that because now I feel that at last, after so many years, I have the freedom to stop looking for another percussion library because this is the one for me.
…I love this library. You guys are geniuses. And Fjordheim Drums is a work of art in and of itself. Incredible.” — P.B
“For acoustic drums I’m mostly a Superior Drummer 3 guy due to their wealth of quality samples and versatile built-in grid sequencer, but Fjordheim offers a sound and vibe that I haven’t heard in SD3 or anywhere else.” – P.C
