Thrash DI by SampleOddity.
SampleOddity has released Thrash DI, a commercial sample library featuring clean DI recordings of a guitar suitable for use in heavy metal music.
Amp up this direct-input sampled guitar and let fly with metal mayhem! You will need a decent amp sim to fully take advantage of this instrument. Thrash DI also includes The Riffmaker, a powerful and versatile step sequencer built to construct brutal riffs.
Thrash DI is available for purchase via SampleOddity’s website. The sample library is priced at $49 and contains 650MB of audio material (download size of the RAR archive is 252MB).
The full version of Native Instrument Kontakt is required in order to use the supplied NKI patches. However, the library also contains individual WAV files, making it suitable for use in virtually any software sampler.
Note that the included sounds are DI recordings of an electric guitar. The samples should be processed with a third-party guitar amp and cabinet emulation software. You can find many of those for free right here on BPB.
To get the basic idea about the quality of the sounds included in the library, check out Thrash DI Free. It’s a free sample pack which was released a while ago by SampleOddity and is included in BPB’s round-up of the best free guitar sample packs.

I’d need to hear something clean before considering a purchase … no doubt it sounds good amped though
good point!
have you tested Thrash DI Free, though? those samples are clean, afaik.
Hi, thanks for the comment! Though Thrash is meant to be played amped, I’d be glad to work up a demo of it played clean for you… or as mentioned below, you can grab the free version at http://www.sampleoddity.com/thrashdifree and try it out. I edited the newer commercial release’s sample pool more recently so it’s not 100% identical, but the free version is representative of the tone.
Also, the intro to the Lost Paradise demo is Thrash DI clean aside from some delay and compression.
Looks to me like the free version is no longer available:(
It is, actually, at http://www.sampleoddity.com/thrashdifree . I had temporarily taken down the link because I wanted to update the freebie to use some of the more recent samples in the commercial release. But the original version is still there at that address. Sorry for the confusion on that! When I made the free version I wasn’t planning on making a commercial version, and so just called the free one Thrash DI… when the time came for the commercial one, I wanted to use that name, so I’m rebranding and updating the freebie… but the old version is still at the linked address.
it’s still available! i’ve updated the link on the Free Sample Shootout page.
