    Is there any kontakt library or vst drum instrument that has this snare drum and kick sounds?
    Hope this post is on the right place. TIA

    I'd try with a drum library that lets you mix the mics. Mute/turn down the top and bottom mics and bring up the room and overhead mics for the snare. Probably put a reverb after.

    Do you know a library close to that sound?

    Strezov Creative Toolbox Drums Free, Krimh Free. Both work in the free Kontakt Player.

    Start with close mics at 0, leaving only overheads and room mics. Bring back a bit of the direct mics when you're happy with the OH/Room mix.

    But truly - pretty much any library that lets you mix mics works too.

    Agree with xorome. But I'll add that it's not so much the kit as how it was mixed and the fx used. His real kit probably sounds nothing like the one in the vid.

    you wont find a library that sound exactely like that track

    what we hear there is the result of a "complex mix", lets say, with

    4 parallel layers:

    -dry drum sounds
    -parallel compression-saturation-whatever
    -parallel room sound compressed-distorted
    -parallel reverbs

    all layers in a processed drum buss


    some notes: High hats have a very different ambience/reverb than the snare, same for the KD

    I think that any of the free library quoted by xorome is a good starting point for the "dry drums sound", but to obtain a similar result you need "mixing"
