A lot of forum reading and question asking of my own made me decide to take a chance and upgrade EZD to Superior 2.1.1. Time passed and I played with BFD and Addictive demos, neither of which pulled me in completely. I was blown away by the sound, but didn't care for the hi-hat playability at all. Then some time went by, and I bought EZDrummer on a whim because it was cheap. I also saw a great video of him playing at a convention. Actually, yes, I watched many videos of Glen Sobel playing and thought it sounded great. Matt may not like the kits (did you like the demos on the site Matt?) and I'm sorry to hear this, but they are available for all to hear via our many demos which show the kits as default. you can check out all the kits being played on Vdrums (by Glen Sobel) at our site to produce your own opinions. We have shipped SSD to many Vdrummers and the 99% have been extremely happy. I had quite a bit of fun playing with it. You could also consider Addictive Drums, which has a nice, relatively unlimited, demo/tryout mode. I found that Superior "plays" much better than EZD for e-kit use, and you can continue to use your EZD kits and EZXs. Still, IMO, if you do anything, save your pennies for a Superior Crossgrade.
I don't know whether the sounds are better in the upgraded version. However, the full-on edition of SSD isn't all that different in price, IIRC. To be fair SSD LE is at a different price point than SD2.0.
Nope, I was pulled right in, and ended up jamming for an additional half-hour (and staying up way past my bedtime). I feel that I could have much better spent the money on the New York Studios Vol2 SDX that Toontrack just released.Īfter the SSD session, I loaded up SD2.0 to see if I was being unfair. Perhaps I need to spend more time tweaking, but I kind of feel like the basic sounds just aren't there for me. I did play around with the room ambiences, etc, but it didn't help enough. In my opinion, the kits just don't sound very good, and don't have as much subtlety as EZD or Superior's samples. I found not one kit that "pulled me in" and made me want to jam. My out-of-the-box experience was basically blah.
#STEVEN SLATE DRUMS 4 VS EZDRUMMER FULL#
Sincerely thankful for any advice.Well, I just installed SSD LE, which I purchased using the discount, and after playing through all the kits, I have to say I'm hugely underwhelmed and kind of bummed (and glad I didn't pay full price, or buy the full-on version). At the price point, it's very appealing, but I don't want to risk buying something that won't sound good or usable. I have no experience with Steven Slate drums. Also, hard disk space feels like it would be an issue with SD3, it's so huge! The price is fine at $150 or whatever it is, and the step up to Superior Drummer is considerable. I have tried the EZdrummer demo, and it sounds great, but it's also very limited. I want to make music with a more natural acoustic feel (as opposed to super polished and processed), so a vst that would work for that would be preferable.
I'm looking for something that works well with external triggering, and that can be tailored to work with my recordings, so things like "muffling" individual drums, access to several ride and crash cymbals, etc would be great. I have added EZdrummer 2 to the cart, and was just about to pull the trigger - but I wanted to check with you before I do something I'll regret. I'm looking for virtual drums for triggering my electronic drum set.
