Our free snare drum plugin features ultra-realistic sound through physical modeling. Use MIDI notes to trigger the in-built exciter and change tip hardness and rimshot parameters.
For added realism the MIDI triggered values can be adjusted with a bell shaped probability curve. The exciter feeds into a waveguide resonator algorithm which lets you change drumhead tuning, snares tension and hit position.
