Addictive Drums VST
Looking for great sounding (and realistic) drums? Look no further.
I know this site is all about free VST plugins, But i just had to share it with you all.
The best part about Addictive drums (besides the quality)is that you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out how it works, A few hours and and mixed with compressors and other tools you'll have a killer weapon to work with.
Try the demo version out!
You'll get 1 full drumset in the demo version.

DigiDrum Pro
DigiDrum Pro is a five part drum and percussion VST plugin suitable for most genres of digital music production.
It features an intuitive user interface packed with loads of sound editing parameters. The sound itself comes from a wave rom containing reproductions designed to resemble classic percussive instruments. These sounds are processed as you wish through the use of sound parameters and velocity controlled expression parmeters.
* 5 separate DigiDrum parts with 5 user definable audio outputs
* 27 classic drum and percussion waveforms
* User wavefile import
* Parts can easily be layered to create even more complex sounds
* easy sound preview ensures intuitive preset programming

TS-808
The TS-808 is a software emulation (VSTi plugin) of the Roland TR-808.
The TR-808 service notes provide full schematics for each voice.
I used them to make SPICE simulations of the circuits. I also analysed the best samples I could find (The Tape808, by Goldbaby), and tweaked the sounds until the waveforms and spectral content were as close as possible to the real thing.
Most of the voices have more parameters and a greater range than their hardware predecessor.
