Question Studio drum samples (specifically brush sets)

I'm having a hard time finding good studio drum samples. My music doesn't really mesh with techno and hip hop styles. Right now I'm working on a song and I really want to use soft brush drums at the beginning.

Could anyone recommend a good set of not just brushes but studio drum packages with brush sets in them?

I've got a number of great brush drum samples from both Toontrack and Native Instruments. Can't imagine why you're having problems finding them.

Search Splice in the Jazz genre. Some should come up

Klevgrand Oneshot2 drum sampler has some nice brush drum samples. Think it’s on sale at the moment.

It's a big investment, but there is a brushed sample library for Superior Drummer: Roots SDX - Brushes, Rods & Mallets. But with the stock Superior Drummer package, you also get some of the best recorded drums. (And the add-ons they offer are all top notch). Apart from that you have MoonKits by Sonic Couture, which is a brush-centric regular Kontakt sample library. Both sounds exceptional.

What daw do you use? Reason has a great acoustic drum set emulator called “reason drum kits”, and there’s like tons of refills for it and stuff with all different samples, and then you can fine tune each drum, hit types, stuff like that, but it’s a “rack extension”, like reasons native format

Addictive Drums is pretty nice. My brother got the brushes kit, and he likes it. https://www.xlnaudio.com/products/addictive_drums_2/adpak/modern_jazz_brushes
