Meet REGGAE STANDARD: the best-selling virtual drumset for Reggae music productions, now available for your pedal drum machine. 

 

Primarily influenced by the drum sounds from Bob Marley and the Wailers records, this drumset was recorded with modern equipment for a more transparent tone.

 

These drums would sound equally at home in Reggae, Roots, Ska, Afro-Beat, Funk, or anything else you may have in mind.

 

We sampled snappy, warm, and full-sounding drums for our Reggae Standard drum kit, providing a solid foundation for your live performances and practices alike.

The piccolo snare used for the Reggae snare sample is tuned high and tight, cutting through without sounding harsh.

The kick is full and rounded with a clear and pleasant warm attack.

Toms are single-headed with a very short sustain.

 

Also included are a small auxiliary snare drum and percussion sounds of woodblocks, cabasa, shakers, glass bottles, tambourine, cowbell, and triangle, making this one of the most comprehensive sampled Reggae drumset around.

 

We emphasized capturing natural dry room ambiance with top-of-the-line Earthworks microphones.

 

If you’re looking for the best-sampled, authentic Reggae drum kit for your personal pedal-drummer, this is for you.

 

This product is included in the GoranGrooves Complete Collection 2026 for BeatBuddy.

 

Reggae Standard is also available as a plugin for DAWs in VST, AAX, and AU formats and as a Standalone app for Windows and MacOS. It includes the BeatBuddy (1 & 2) format.

 

A comprehensive collection of Reggae beats for your BB, that work perfectly with this kit can be found here.

ULTRA-REALISTIC DRUMS

Unmatched in drum realism, GoranGrooves’ kits sound like real drums and percussion being played right in front of you in a room instead of a bunch of individual drums sounding in their own isolated spaces.

 

GoranGrooves’ meticulously crafted drum samples blend science and art, imbuing a unique character that defines the identity of any drum machine or software VI they are played on.

 

You’ll still get the size and breadth beyond the form factor while keeping within BeatBuddy’s 100MB RAM framework.

MULTIPLE DYNAMIC LEVELS FOR DRUMSETS

Each drum and cymbal was sampled at many dynamic levels to faithfully capture the instrument’s full dynamic range.

 

Each instrument comes with enough dynamic levels to produce a believable performance on your guitar pedal drummer.

ROUND-ROBIN SAMPLES FOR DRUMSETS

A human ear can intuitively tell the difference between the same snare sample played repeatedly and a real drummer playing a snare drum. When a drummer strikes a drum, each sub-sequential stroke is slightly different from the one before, no matter how consistently they are played.

 

We sampled each drum and cymbal numerous times at various dynamic levels to solve this. Then, during playback, samples are swapped, and a different sample is triggered for each hit.
