How to find drum sets

[persist]

UPDATED 03/30/2025

Use the forum search function to locate and download almost (but not) all of the user-created drum sets

• click on the magnifying glass icon in the upper right of the page
• type the string Missing kits and it returns this:

• click on the first result and scroll to “Missing Kits” and click to open
• pro tip: to easily find this page again, it’s a good idea to bookmark the link in your browser
• use the keyboard shortcuts for Find e.g., Command+F (macOS) or Control+F (Windows) to find a specific word for the kit you want e.g., CGuitar or Fiddle and it will return Dropbox download links

The only kits I could not find quite so easily were the SUB-Standard Pro Plain and SUB-Std Pro PL Bass 0-31 kits which I use a lot in the songs I post; to find these kits using the forum search function:

• type Substitute and click on the second entry in the results

Here’s a link to the SUB-Standard Pro Plain kit

Some user-created drum sets are based on premium library drum sets (Vintage Ludwig and Standard Pro). If you bought those kits and you need the versions with bass, you’ll have to show your proof of purchase receipts to the users that created the derived kits with bass. It works best if you send a PM to the original posters (OP). Hint: You can use the Substitute kits to preview what the OPB songs sound like.

Can we update the links above to ones that work in the new forum? The old forum is not displaying the above pages.

I only found one link to the old forum in this thread. If that’s what you were referring to, I caveated that link.

Shame about the old forum. Looks like a lot of good content was lost.

Substitute Standard Pro with Bass kits

This link contains both the 0-31 and a 62-91 mapping of a kit that can be used wherever Standard Pro with Bass is required. Generally, you will need the 62-91 kit. Standard with Bass used a 63-91 bass mapping. I have added an additional low D note. The sources document tells you where the waves were sourced.

Persist,
I’ve done all of the above and still can find: SUB-Std Pro PL Bass 0-3. I have purchased the Standard Pro and Vintage Ludwig.
Also, is there a version of Oh, Pretty Woman with bass?

Did you mean to say that you cannot find the SUB-Std Pro PL Bass 0-31 kit? The kit is within the zip file that holds 2 kits and a pdf file. All you need to do is click on Phil_Flood’s link, download the file, unzip it to your desktop and use the BBMO to import the SUB-Std Pro PL Bass 0-31 kit (or whichever one you need).

@tcalvin48

Also, is there a version of Oh, Pretty Woman with bass?

Here’s a display of the search results for Pretty Woman. You probably want the first one listed.

[tcalvin48]

got it, thanks. that’s the version I have of Pretty Woman (OPB), I don’t hear the bass if there is any. the drum kit is Vintage Ludwig. I must be doing something wrong…

@tcalvin48

I must be doing something wrong…

Try the other kit that was in the zip file.

[tcalvin48]

Persist, you’re really dealing with a Luddite here. I don’t see any drum kits in the zip file:
Chrome HTML Document
SNG File
MIDI Sequence
RPP File
RPP-BAK File

For the drum sets, you need to unzip the file from this link: (apparently, you clicked on the zip file for the song); Dropbox (click on the word that says Dropbox in blue font).

If you need more help, please DM me.

Go back to the first post in this thread and follow the directions. Hint: “missing kits”—you’ll find the kit you need.

I can see where you get SUB-Std Pro PL Bass 0-31 from that zip file. Where can we find SUB-Standard Pro Plain?

I actually own the official Standard Pro, but this should help others.

To help others (and avoid issues as “search” drifts), here are the links to the posts to find missing kits and to find the standard pro kits:

• "Missing" drum kits from the Forum
• Substitute Standard Pro with Bass kits

Found by typing SUB-Standard Pro in the forum Search

Here’s the link to the kit: SUB-Standard Pro Plain kit

I’ve also updated my Helpful Links that are included with every song I post to the forum.
