Toontrack is a Swedish music software company headquartered in Umeå, co-founded by Mattias Eklund and Andreas Sundgren. The company originated from a personal quest for better-sounding drums — Eklund and Sundgren were making video game and film music and couldn't find drum samples that met their standards. Their solution was to record their own, enlisting Tomas Haake, drummer of Swedish extreme metal band Meshuggah, to create the "Drumkit From Hell" sample library. That project evolved into DFH Superior, which laid the groundwork for Toontrack's flagship product line.
Toontrack's core offerings are virtual instruments and audio plug-ins for music production. Superior Drummer 3 is their professional-grade drum sampler, while EZdrummer 3 provides a more streamlined workflow aimed at songwriters. The product family extends beyond drums: EZkeys covers piano and keyboard instruments, EZbass handles bass guitar, and EZmix is a mixing and mastering plug-in. Each product is supported by extensive expansion libraries — SDX packs for Superior Drummer, EZX for EZdrummer, EKX for EZkeys, and EBX for EZbass — as well as MIDI packs that provide pre-played drum patterns and grooves.
The company has built a roster of collaborations with high-profile producers and engineers including Eddie Kramer and the late Al Schmitt, as well as iconic recording studios like Capitol Studios and Abbey Road. Artists such as Devin Townsend, Meshuggah, and The Dillinger Escape Plan have used Toontrack software in their recordings. With offices in Sweden, the US, the UK, and Germany, Toontrack has established itself as one of the leading developers of virtual drum and instrument software.
Toontrack has 90 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Expansion Packs, Virtual Instrument, and Drum Machine. Their gear is featured by 57 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Electronic, and Metal. Notable users include Ola Englund, Tyler Joseph, and Jake Pitts. Most Toontrack products fall in the mid-tier range — professional-grade without flagship pricing.
