DrumAccess (Drum Libraries)

Welcome to the DrumAccess libraries page

We are very happy to present our drum libraries, usable by everyone, but specially designed for the blind.

We recently noticed that several Drum VSTi developers had completely overhauled their interface, rendering their products unusable, even with the LBL extension for NVDA.

We have therefore decided to do without these companies which, despite multiple attempts on our part, remain deaf to taking into account the accessibility of their graphical interfaces.

So we're announcing the release of a series of drum libraries, which we hope will meet all your needs.

DrumAccess - Gretsch - Broadkaster Kit Damped

60,00 € each

In the 1970s, many popular bands adopted a drum damped sound, characterized by muffled drums and controlled resonance. This sound was emblematic of the era, giving the rhythms a drier, more percussive quality. Bass drums often had heads with internal padding to dampen their resonance, while toms and snare drums were muffled with dampeners or foams. This style of production helped create a distinct vibe, often associated with genres like classic rock, funk and disco. Over the next few years, the drum damped sound returned to the forefront, popularized by influential British bands. These artists have reintroduced this iconic sound into new musical contexts, reinventing it for a new generation of listeners and musicians. This resurgence has reinforced the nostalgic appeal for the sounds of the '70s while injecting a fresh, modern feel into the contemporary musical landscape.
