Instant, organic rhythms

From simple solo beats to complex ensemble parts, Session Percussionist offers a versatile collection of drum patterns, rolls, and single hits in an intuitive engine. Explore over 2,000 rhythm patterns recorded by renowned session musicians and adapt them to your tracks using flexible editing features: from African grooves and Latin polyrhythms to claps and clicks for your next pop hit.

Authentic Percussion Parts

The library includes shakers, tambourines, congas, cajones and more – a total of 58 carefully recorded instruments with multiple mixing options. Quick results are provided by ready-made ensemble presets, each with up to five slots for instruments that can be played simultaneously or individually for unique expression.

Find drum patterns quickly

Simply enter the rhythm you want, and the new Session Percussionist engine will find loops and patterns that are perfect for your project. Easily preview suggested patterns and drag them into one of five interchangeable slots to quickly create your own arrangements. Customize patterns manually or with the built-in step sequencer: add and remove notes, change velocity and articulation, insert flams, and more.

Streamlined Workflow

Browse ensemble presets and explore a wide range of carefully curated kits with matching sound presets. The browser makes it easy to find, filter, and preview sounds by genre tags, instrument types, and tempo ranges. Audition of ensemble presets is synchronized with the tempo of your project for a faster workflow.

Your Virtual Studio

Personalize your sound on the mixer page, where you can adjust EQ, compression, reverb, and delay settings, and route individual signals and room mics to the direct outputs for individual processing. Remove unwanted high or low notes with the articulation filter, change the pitch, timing, and stereo width, then position each performer in the virtual studio using the XY pad and activate doubling for the perfect fit in the mix.

Play with Kontrol

Session keyboards Percussionist is fully integrated with Kontrol S-Series keyboards. Use the intelligent Light Guide illumination , which visualizes loop, single, and roll zones on the keyboard.
