Hey all, I am a newb looking for a percussion library that is more on the processed and epic side of the spectrum.
More specifically, the percussion in the following tracks is what I had in mind.
I plan to branch out to wood/metal/cymbal or tuned percussions later but for now, all I want (hopefully using the correct terminology here) are these *thud* and *thwomp* sounds. Obviously epic perc libraries that go for upwards of $700+ would fit the bill but I am looking for:
1.Something that will help me dip my toes in, so to speak.
2.Something I should save up for and buy when the time comes. (Hopefully costs $400 at most.)
From what I've seen Hans Zimmer percussion from SF sounds similar enough, but I couldn't find any other budget or non-budget perc library that sounds like this (the bass drums just don't even come close to cutting it in most libraries I've seen.) Would especially appreciate help finding a budget library that I can at least play/experiment with, but regardless, If you have a similar sounding library that you enjoy, as long as it isn't egregiously expensive, I would appreciate hearing about it. Thanks!!
(Also, a shout out to Trevor Morris, he really killed it in this game's ost)

If you want follow the official thread here:
. All of the libraries recommended thus far are kontakt player compatible I think, save for Spitfire hammers, which does its own thing.
