Drumlabooh is an easy way to write drum tracks as MIDI at your DAW, using Hydrogen kits, Drumlabooh/Drumrox kits or SFZ.
Drumlabooh was written as the replacement of Drumrox, my fork of DrMr (see Nicklan’s DrMr and Filipe Coelho’s fork.

DrMr is cool C/GTK+2 LV2 plugin that I used for a years, but then DrMr stopped support current Hydrogen’s drumkit format. First I “fixed” kits XML files manually, and at the some point I made the fork of DrMr called Drumrox and fix it at the XML parsing level.

June 06 2025 – Drumlabooh 10.0.0 release (“Freestyle”)

Hello! This version features drum kits of a new kind. Any directory with subdirectories full of samples can serve as a drum kit. Just put the top level directory of such “kit” to the $HOME/drum_dirs (Linux) or C:\drum_dirs or D:\drum_dirs (Windows). The drumkit of that type will act as Drumlabooh’s Alternative samples kits, so you can select samples within each slot by +/= buttons. Please read the Manual for details.

Just a small example.

We have a folder “My Drum” with subdirectories “01-Kick”, “02-Snare”, “03-Hihats”. At “Kick” we have samples bass-rock.wav, bass-gabber.wav, bass-triphop.wav. The same for other subfolders. We put “My Drum” directory to $HOME/drum_dirs and “My Drum” drumkit will be available at Drum;abooh’s kit selector list. Yes, it’s a kind of magic.
