Thank you very much for releasing such wonderful content! I am using your various sample packs heavily in a 100% DIY electric drum set I am building. In particular I love your 13" / 14" snare drums (in their various tunings), and your 8" / 10" / 12" toms.
If you are interested in seeing my work, you can do so at https://hackaday.io/project/6881 and (currently outdated but soon to be updated) http://drummaster.digitalcave.ca . I am also in the process of posting videos showing the kit in action, with your samples used prominently.
Again, thank you very much!
Cheers

man, these drum multisample packs you've uploaded are astounding! I can't thank you enough. You have done an impeccable job capturing the subtle nuances of each drum and cymbal. These kits are AT LEAST as good as the best commercial sample sets I've heard, if not better. There is a sense of painstaking love and attention to detail that I am hearing and feeling in these recordings that many commercial kits lack. For you to have taken the time and energy to record and upload these all for free for freesound users is so commendable. Thank you so much.
