Drum and Bass Environment by 36db

Overview & Inspiration

Explore the world of Drum & Bass and submerge yourself into the powerful and complex sounds, effects and production techniques used by the leading producers.

This Environment is created with expertly crafted, fully functioning instruments, Drum Racks, FX chains, channel strips, and MIDI using only Ableton Live native plug-ins. The beauty of 36db is that it’s truly modular—you can work entirely within the Environment or extract any element individually. Simply drag and drop the tools you want into your session.

If you like the production style of High Contrast, Rudimental, Noisia, Shogun Audio, Skanna, AMC, Andy C, Ed Rush, Goldie, and Pendulum then this Environment is for you.

Features & Highlights

Complete Production Environment – Three meticulously arranged Live Sets provide everything from full production templates to individual drum channels and pattern libraries. Each set is built to inspire and educate.

Professional Drum Design – A custom Drum Rack featuring 16 expertly selected samples, plus a dedicated channel strip that shapes your drums with surgical precision. Whether you need punchy breaks or deep, rolling basslines, the foundation is here.

Musical Building Blocks – 45 MIDI clips spanning drums and melodic content give you instant access to authentic Drum & Bass patterns and progressions. Use them as starting points or deconstruct them to understand the genre’s rhythmic complexity.

Sound Palette – Seven synth sounds and one bass sound designed specifically for the genre. Each instrument rack includes color-coded macro tips and preset snapshots that reveal the thinking behind the sound design.

Professional FX Chains – Five uniquely designed effect chains, two return channel processors, and a custom master channel strip. These aren’t just presets—they’re mixdown tools that show you how the pros create space, width, and impact.

Built-In Learning System – Open the info tab in any Instrument Rack to reveal insights and tips. Color-coded tutorials explain what each macro achieves. Flip through presets to discover new textures, or hit the randomize button for instant creative inspiration.

How to Use

The Drum and Bass Environment works as both a learning tool and a production accelerator. Load the full Environment to see how a professional Drum & Bass track is structured—from arrangement to automation to final polish.

Want to focus on drums? Load the Individual Drum Channels set and study how each element is processed. Looking for rhythmic ideas? The Drum Patterns set gives you instant access to authentic breaks and grooves.

Every element is designed to be extracted. Drag instruments, FX chains, or MIDI clips into your own projects. Deconstruct the synths to understand their architecture. Reverse-engineer the processing to level up your mixing skills.
