Extinction Level Event – Master Kit

Extinction Level Event is one of the most natural and realistic drum libraries on the market. We meticulously sampled each aspect of our drums so that you had the most musical, dynamic layers possible. We developed a custom mixing panel right into ELE where you can control drum bleed, microphone levels, and even bring in your own one-shot sample right into the instrument.

We also spent a LONG time creating amazing presets for you to use that’ll fit right into your songs… but the mixing panel includes all of the EQ and post-processing tools you need if you want to tweak and create your own sounds. There is also a fully functional MIDI Groove Player inside of ELE. Now you can select the perfect groove for your music right within ELE and drag it into your DAW—without needing to program a single drum hit.

Did we mention that ELE runs in the Kontakt Free Player and is fully integrated with NKS? Yep. You don’t need to buy anything extra when you buy ELE! ELE also makes MIDI-remapping a breeze, so if you prefer to play on an electronic drum kit or just want to change the notes for your drum map, it’s only a matter of a few clicks and boom, done!
