Virtual Percussion

This is amazing tool must have VST for your percussion sounds! 10/10, I also recommend getting the VDL Drumline package!

I spent $50 on this and don't get me wrong I love it, but the only issue I have with it is that when I try to use a tremolo on a suspended cymbal it doesn't sound like it's being played with mallets it sounds like it's being played with drumsticks and it sounds so bad. Kinda the same thing with the gong, I wanna add gong rolls to my compositions and arrangements but it just sounds like crap. Please if there's anything you can do to help me with this I will be so happy!

👍These instruments are great, I like them a lot, some are cute, for example, Slide Whistle, Flextone, Vibraslap and Xylophone, they are very common in cartoons and nursery rhymes. But I found that most of the products seem to have increased in price a lot. I saw some products that were originally priced at $19.99, and suddenly increased to $49.99 around April or May this year. Many products have increased in price by about $30-40, although not all products have increased in price, but this situation still makes me sad...😭 But the sound of these products sounds good, so I will still give a positive review. There are actually 84 instruments in this set, including: Agogo Almglocken Angklung Ankle Bells Bass Drum Bass Pan Bell Plates Bell Tree Bird Calls Birds Meinl Bongos Brake Drum Cabasa Castanets China Cymbal Claps Claves Concert Toms Congas Cowbell Crash Cymbals Cricket Crotales Djembe Double 2nd Pan Doumbek Drum Kit Earth Plate Electric Bass Electric Guitar Energy Chimes Finger Cymbals Flexatone Frog Garden Weasel Glockenspiel Gongs Guiro Hi-Hat Ice Bell Impact Drums Jam Blocks Lead Pan Log Drum Maracas Marching Machine Marimba Ocean Drum Piano Propane Tank Rainsticks Ratchet Ribbon Crasher Ride Cymbal Rototoms Shaker Shakerines Shekere Siren Sizzle Cymbal Slapstick Sleigh Bells Slide Whistle Snare Drum Splash Cymbal Suspended Cymbal Swish Knocker Taikos Tam-tam Tambourine Tang Tangs Temple Blocks Thundersheet Timbales Timpani Trash Can Triangle Tubular Bells Typewriter Vibraphone Vibraslap Vibratone Waterphone Wind Chimes Wind Gong Wood Blocks Xylophone

The sounds are great. However I’m finding simple things that stand outl. The bowed crotale sound doesn’t sound bowed and theres an attack on each note. The “play with shaft” featrue in Marimba works great, but the xylo version changes pitch down a half step then back up every other note. unuseable currently.

I LOVE the effort put in to make this a reality. But we need rack combos. Maybe MS as a whole could benefit from enabling multiple unpitched instruments on a single staff, not just the VDL plugin - this needs to happen on a wide scale with user choice freedom!

The only good thing that I got from this was more realistic sounds. Tremolos play cymbal rolls, theres not vibraphone pedal option, notes are delayed, and when a note is released it plays it again. This is a really bad library that should not be $20. This should be free.

no one cares abt all the "enhancements" that are being added. we NEED rack combos!!!!!!

I'm leaving a negative review here in hopes that it's genuinely seen (especially since I'm not the first person asking for this). The sounds here are solid. I bought it wrongfully assuming drumline would be included since that's what the language suggested, but it's still a good value considering everything you get and the relatively high quality. But as someone who's trying to collaborate with someone who uses VDL through Kontakt, not having combined auxiliary percussion parts actively prevents me from being able to write on the same level. This is a very needed change!!

Love it but it needs rack combos. It's a nightmare having to change instruments just to create a rack part.

I love using this version of VDL for muse score but the thing I'm always missing is racks since I always write for marching and indoor.
