The deal
$39 at Plugin Boutique (down from $49) - 20% off. The sale runs through September 1, 2026.
What it is
Speed Metal Drums is a virtual drum instrument from Ugritone built around a Tama ArtStar II kit tracked for a razor-sharp, high-octane '80s hi-class metal sound. It ships with six snare options, five toms, and 14 cymbal selections, all tuned for punchy attack and ultra-short decay so fast riffs stay tight and articulate. Seven hand-crafted genre presets get you into a usable mix fast, and the engine also loads custom WAV, AIFF, or FLAC samples if you want to build your own kit.
Who it's for
Producers and drummers working in speed metal, thrash, and other aggressive metal styles who need drums that can keep up with lightning-fast riffs without turning into mush. It also suits anyone mixing heavy tracks who wants a dedicated metal kit instead of adapting a general-purpose drum library.
