In this video, DC Snares creator, Davide Carbone, walks you through what DC Snares has to offer.
DC’s Snare Production Method Made Easy
Drum and bass producers have become familiar with David Carbone’s revolutionary Drum and Bass Masterclass pack; call up sounds quickly, accentuate the rattle and wires of a snare, combine live and electronic sources, add a huge reverb with a gate. Now these methods and tools used by DC are combined into a refined workflow and dedicated plugin, creating the freedom to make unique snares for any genre.
Not Just any Randomiser
Algorithmically human Randomiser which also auto-generates a name based on content. Create bespoke snares, hits and soundscapes with endless permutations - in an instant.
Four Customisable Sound Slots
Four customisable sound slots allow you to select from the 684 internal samples, drag and drop your own samples, load up a synth engine or auto-populate with the randomiser to layer sounds. Each sound slot has its own adjustable amp and pitch envelope, inviting producers to further customise their sounds.
Pitch and Amp Envelopes with Real Time Display
Quickly reshape your sounds by altering the pitch or adjusting your audio envelopes, and see the waveform update in real time both for each sound slot, as well as overall. The waveform display updates in real-time when adding or adjusting the internal FX, allowing for complete visual control of your snare experimentation.
Twelve Proprietary Insert and Master FX Slots
The custom-made FX are a big part of what makes DC Snares unique, replicating a typical FX chain used by Davide Carbone in his design process. The ‘Sizzler’ is a world first that replicates how a room responds to the rattle of a snare, while the ‘Resonator’ and ‘Transient Shaper’ are specifically made to suit snare creation. Any of these effects can be easily reordered for maximum impact.
Playable Performance Engine
DC Snares thrives as a live instrument. Utilising a MIDI controller or the internal keyboard, pitch snares up or down, and create powerful rolls using note divisions.
Assignable Modulation Envelopes
Four mappable envelopes and hundreds of parameters ensure total flexibility and endless possibilities within your sound design.

This is the best straightforward plug-in to come out in a while
Congrats Davide & Team for the release of yet another great sound design/music making product!
The visualization of the effects in waveform is a great feature, hard to separate a tool like this from being a me too, but this has many cool embedded and cool compact features! Nice!
best kick drum plugin ever that also does snares
Let's not understate how useful that live view of the waveform is for the compression. Compression can be a slightly more challenging concept to understand, and tuning it right can be opaque. Traditional compression viewers don't necessarily help in understanding the alteration to the waveform, however the way it is presented here--live changing of the waveform itself--is far more intuitive.

Indeed. It could be a great concept to implement to any DAW's timeline
Yup as a DnB producer this one is a buy for me 😀👍
Just bought it and loving it, thanks! I already have suggestions: - I think Velocity should be a modulation source, for extra expressivity - Could we please have a user folder (or more that one)? gonna be messy once we have hundreds of our own sample - Randomiser is fun, could it be Midi mappable? (or implement Program Changes) - Would be nice to be able to delete presets (this way the Randomiser would be more "curated") - In the 'Division' section of the keyboard, when pressing 2 notes, the repetition could speed up or slow down, sort of like a portamento but for the beat divisions. This or maybe the division could be a modulation destination

I can't get the demo 1.0 vst3 to be recognized in Reaper 7.11 Windows 11. Scan doesn't bring it up and I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. The folder is there in Explorer, but not in Reaper. Also doesn't show up in Davinci Resolve or (I know) Audacity (just wanted to try it elsewhere).
awesome
Nice, i like it.

How does it handle phase issues when drag your own samples in?
It looks like a great solution. Obviously, DC Kicks next then?

I agree. If so, I realllly hope they add a phase flip switch to each layer. DC Snares could use a phase flip as well. 😀
I miss a master AMP and a copy paste option in the edit, pitch, amp section :)!! Otherwise this seems super cool!!
1:00 bro was about to play master of puppets
Would be nice if you can see the key when you shape sounds
A great complement to Big Kick, but all my drum sounds are created in Big Kick, thanks.
When for example randomize it, will it build a sound by using signals (synth) or samples or a combination of both? I just want to know what it is that I buy.

The Randomisation does not include the internal synth engine at launch but it will. Generally I don’t find randomisers useful so it was really important for us to have something that sounds good for launch. I think we’ve started well and our beta team loved getting lost in the randomiser. You can turn FX on and off in the settings but apart from export audio, expanding the randomiser to incorporate the synth engine and various signal routing and FX is a priority. Try the demo it’s free and hope you like it.
can u drag out master audio file into the DAW?

Number one request from our beta team and the next feature on the list. It’s a deep plug and really wanted everything else perfected. Next update you will be able to drag rendered audio straight from the master waveform to the DAW. Obviously you can drag and drop into any of the sound slots no problem.
Fantastic, I just buy it one, but it is unusable because they crash my DAW when I load the instrument plug in DC Snare.

Is there pitch detection for user samples?

We tried this and given how many a-tonal transients are involved it’s hard to get to a point where we were satisfied with off the shelf tech. It will happen. Just needs some deeper thought and trial.

I bought it and used it. It’s really CPU hungry sadly. I have and M1 16ram and I need to increase buffer size anytime I use the plugin, or else clicks and cracked. Shame, not sure I’ll keep using it cause this leases with my workflow

We have an identical setup and not experiencing that at all. The 'Sizzler' effect requires a significant amount of computational power given its complexity but aside from that it should be very CPU efficient. Please try reinstalling and restarting and if you are still having problems please report them over at our forum. Thank you.
Why is this not on rent to own??
I didn’t see any support for being able to affect parameters via velocity for those who find expressive variation important.

It's coming!! In fact the underlying mechanism is ready, but we had to focus on the most important things before release. Velocity control of parameters and start point etc will be coming in an update very soon.
Just bought it , but only to realise … oh .. it’s only one shot samples ? No round robins to avoid those ugly machine gun effects when repeating a snare in a fill etc ? Would be great to see RR’s especially on the acoustic snares
Dude feels like he used to create the hardest tracks in the past 😂

I can see that at face level it looks like a four part sampler, but it's been years that artists I work alongside have been asking me to make a plugin that focuses on creating snares. The effects including the 'sizzler' are snare centric and a world first, the pitch-able playable divisions, the realtime waveforms with realtime displays, not to mention the hundreds of sounds I made for it, the randomiser and of course the workflow. The purpose of this plug was to stop the constant scrolling looking for the perfect snare and allow for craftmanship and enjoyment in the process of making a snare! Try the demo its free and hope you like it : )

Correct in terms of being able to do the same in your DAW. But it will speed things up and help you find combinations that you might not be able to get via your DAW. I might be biased as I'm one of the devs, but I've found it a super fun and quick tool to get great snare and percussion sounds, much quicker than in the DAW for me. YMMV
