Less theory, more feelings.
The Contemporary Drama Toolkit is a ready-to-release sound kit professionally crafted and created by award-winning composer Samuel Sim and our team of composers to help you play music without theory and without sacrificing emotion. With 72 individual instrument patches and 44 combinations, expression is embedded in every sound, allowing you to focus on your music instead of the software menus.
CDT’s sound palette has been carefully thought out, as is the case with the hugely successful British Drama Toolkit. Derived from a masterful blending of raw material – the soft, chorus tones of Juno 6, iconic MS – 20 textures, vocalizations and inspiring lead lines played on guitar, electric cello and electric violin – all processed through an enviable collection of analog effects, vintage pedals and modules Eurorack. Everything blooms from the simplest variations in the game, from whispering textures to bold melodies, opening up a world of sound in every patch.
Building on the success of the British Drama Toolkit, the Contemporary Drama Toolkit is a continuation of sounds created using the same intuitive user interface. This carefully curated palette unfolds easily around the keyboard, smoothly blending auxiliary textures with the leading lines, while leaving you room to develop a personal connection with your composition.
For those looking to take an alternative approach to assessment, this toolkit gives you complete creative freedom without any technological barriers, allowing the music to simply be influenced. Whether it’s a bygone era or a dizzying future, discover the world in every patch and unleash the potential of every storyline.
The Contemporary Drama Toolkit provides the most instinctive, direct connection to the heart of your composition, giving you the freedom to create music in an instant.
Similar to the British Drama Toolkit’s unique approach, CDT techniques use the entire keyboard and rely on velocity to reveal the enormous range of expression of each patch, giving you the freedom to forget about the computer and react instinctively to drama. It is a collection of carefully selected sounds, ready to go wherever your imagination takes you.
