Barebones drum rompler that has way too much of CPU usage...pass. Sounds are decent at least, worth sampling.

Just like DSK's other kits, this plugin comes with unassigned outputs. You must assign them to get audio out. Once you do, this is a perfectly usable kit. Once you have your track set up and producing audio, I advise saving the track as a template. Then the plugin will be set up to work every time you add it.

This plugin is badly let down by an appalling oversight in that it fails to allow the user to configure which midi notes trigger particular parts of the drumkit. The snare is usually assigned D2, but DSK Drumz assigns it at E2. Using this plugin would require that all my midi drum patterns would need to be rearranged, which is just not worth the bother. A big fail.

Works fine on Reaper 5.15 on XP SP3. You just have to assign the outputs from your FX host track to receives on individual drum tracks - can't see any way to reassign audio sends in the VST though. Uses the 'Less is more' principle. Pretty good for free, the interface is clear.

To all those of you who are saying this VST doesn't work properly; remember this is a 32 bit plug-in that you're most likely trying to run in a 64 bit program. I use both Mulab 32 and 64 bit versions so i can use 32 and 64 bit VSTs.

DSK is friggin awesome and everyone that downloads there free samples should send them at least a dollar. BUT this did not work for me on Cubase Le5. I have downloaded a few of their VST instruments without any issues, but this one unfortunately didnt work.

I know there are better Drum VSTs out there, but this one still sounds more than OK. Ideal for any genre of music, I give it a 4

Hi, I'm using ableton live - I can get the VSTi in the program, but when I press the buttons on my midi controller it doesn't make a sound? Does anyone know the reason?

Check the "red button" in the "channel" under the "number button" and the "s" one... Turn it on (red) and try... If it didn't work or it's already red... Look at the top right corner there's a "small keys" (keyboard-like) turn it on (it will be colored to yellow).

Hi Frank, yea this is just enabling the Midi for the program. This doesnt work with this specific VSTi
