Drake Drum Kits & Presets

# Frequently Asked
Questions

Everything producers ask about Drake drum kits, FL Studio presets, downloads, licensing and usage for Windows.

## Downloads & Access

The Drake drum kit for FL Studio includes 808 bass hits, layered snares, hi-hat rolls, trap claps, open hats, rimshots, vocal chops, melodic loops, piano stabs and atmospheric pads — all formatted as WAV one-shots ready for FL Studio on Windows.

Yes. The Drake drum kit is available as a free download for FL Studio producers on Windows. Use the Download Drake Kit Free button on the main page.

No account required. Click the download button and the pack downloads directly to your Windows machine.

Pack sizes vary. The full Drake drum kit is typically 200–600 MB depending on which version and which included packs are bundled. The exact size is shown on the download page before you confirm.

## Compatibility & Technical

Yes. All samples are standard WAV files compatible with FL Studio on Windows 10 and Windows 11. No additional software required beyond FL Studio itself.

The WAV samples are format-agnostic and will open in any DAW on any operating system. However this resource is specifically optimised for FL Studio on Windows — preset files (.fst, .fxp) may require FL Studio for Windows to function correctly.

FL Studio 20 or later is recommended. Core WAV samples work in any version. Preset chains and FLP templates are built for FL Studio 20/21. Some Gross Beat or Patcher presets require those plugins to be installed.

The core drum kit WAV samples work in FL Studio’s built-in sampler — no extra plugins needed. Some preset packs may reference Gross Beat, Sytrus or Harmor. These are noted in each pack’s description before you download.

All samples are 24-bit WAV files at 44.1 kHz unless otherwise noted. They are uncompressed and ready to drag into any FL Studio project without conversion.

## Drake Presets for FL Studio

Yes. This page links to Drake FL Studio presets including vocal chain presets, mixer presets, mastering starters, Gross Beat presets, Patcher presets and stock FL chain presets. Each is listed separately in the Presets wheel.

Download and unzip the preset file. Place .fst files in your FL Studio Presets folder (usually `Documents\Image-Line\FL Studio\Presets`). Restart FL Studio and access the preset from your plugin’s preset browser. FLP templates can be opened directly via File > Open.

Gross Beat is a time and volume manipulation plugin by Image-Line used widely in Drake-style production for stutters, half-time effects and rhythmic gating. A Gross Beat preset is a saved configuration that instantly applies those effects to any channel in FL Studio. You need the Gross Beat plugin (included in FL Studio Producer Edition or higher) to use these presets.

## Licensing & Usage Rights

Usage terms depend on the final license provided with each downloadable pack. Review the license file included with each download for full usage terms before using in any project.

Commercial usage rights vary per pack. Some packs are fully royalty-free for commercial use; others restrict redistribution or sync licensing. Always check the included license file. When in doubt, contact the pack’s original publisher before distributing commercially.

Redistribution of the pack files themselves is generally not permitted unless the license explicitly allows it. You may share this page link freely so other producers can download directly from the official source.

This is an independent producer resource page. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or in partnership with Drake, OVO Sound, Republic Records or any associated entity. Artist names are referenced for descriptive purposes to identify the musical style and inspiration of the listed sound packs.

## Production Workflow

Download and unzip the kit. In FL Studio, open the Browser panel (F8), navigate to the unzipped folder, and drag individual WAV files into the Step Sequencer or the Channel Rack. For the FLP starter template, go to File > Open and select the .flp file directly.

Drake-influenced trap and R&B production typically sits between 60–85 BPM for half-time-feel tracks, or 130–145 BPM for straight trap arrangements. Many producers use 72 BPM for the atmospheric slow-burn sound and 140 BPM for high-energy bangers.

Load the 808 WAV into FL Studio’s native sampler (FPC or Sampler channel). Use the pitch knob in the channel settings to tune the 808 to the root note of your chord progression. For chromatic 808 runs, map the sample across keyboard keys in the plugin editor and play melodically in the piano roll.
