What it is
Redline Trailer Drums is a Kontakt-based cinematic percussion library from NKS partner Fallout Music Group, built for trailer and promo composers who need tight, mix-ready punch. It layers three distinct sound worlds - heavily processed organic drums (bass drums, surdos, odaiko, taiko, toms, snares, rim hits), hybrid ensembles that fuse those acoustic recordings with electronic elements, and aggressive synthetic trailer percussion - all tightly edited rather than left as raw, wide-open recordings. A dedicated Rolls engine adds fully playable, mod wheel-controlled drum rolls that loop seamlessly and trigger release hits on cue.
Who it's for
Trailer, promo, and hybrid score composers who need percussion that cuts through dense orchestration without extra mix work, plus sound designers scoring sports packages and advertising spots.
Key features
- 18 organic, 18 hybrid, and 14 synthetic drum ensembles, each recorded with 5 velocity layers and 5 round robins for zero machine-gun repetition
- 15 playable ensemble rolls (6 organic, 5 hybrid, 4 synthetic) with mod-wheel velocity blending and loopable playback
- Built-in shaping tools on every ensemble - Crush knob saturation/compression, 3-band EQ, high/low-pass filters, reverb and delay, plus Close and Room mic blending on organic and hybrid patches
- Full NKS 1 and NKS 2 integration, running in Kontakt 8.8 or the free Kontakt 8 Player
