Overview

Decent-Sampler-Drums MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server designed for generating configurations for DecentSampler drum kits, enabling users to create and manage drum kit presets efficiently.

To use the server, install the necessary dependencies, build the server, and configure it within the Claude Desktop app. Users can generate presets by providing a directory of drum samples and following the usage guidelines for simple or complex presets.

  • WAV file analysis and validation - Global pitch and envelope controls - Multi-mic routing with MIDI controls - Round robin sample playback - Flexible velocity layer handling - Muting group support - Auxiliary output routing
  1. Creating custom drum kits for music production.
  2. Analyzing and validating WAV files for drum samples.
  3. Configuring complex drum setups with multiple microphones and routing options.
