Turn Your Sample Packs into Logic Pro Drum Kits
Kit Maker can help you quickly create tons of Logic Pro drum kits from your Sample Packs or Maschine Expansions. Our app is primarily known for creating drum kit presets for MPC, Ableton and others, but we also have an easy way to make kits for Logic Pro using our Numbered Files format!
These kits are created as organized folders of 16 sample drum kits. Although it is not a direct preset file, loading a kit is as simple as dragging the contents of a kit folder onto the Drum Machine Designer's pads!
These are not direct Logic Pro preset files, but are kit folders which can be imported into the software.

Why use Kit Maker instead of importing samples manually?
Kit Maker creates the kits for you! It automatically creates 16 pad kits. Each kit is grouped together, organized, labeled and ready to import.
