The one thing I dislike about all the clips posted here is that snare ringing after the attack. I always feel I have to gate that out. It's the Sonor snare right? I always end up using that one and lately I just blend it with other samples. Not as obvious being unprocessed but this is the same snare soloed:

Maybe it's just this particular snare but I hate that ring.

I'd rather listen to a mix with AD than SD. There's something horribly generic about a song with SD in it, not sure what it is but probably just the overabundance of mixes on here done with SD. Even though more compressed, I feel AD has a more natural sound and better sample rotation. To truly get an incredible sound out of AD, you have to tweak it. Have a real drummer come over and tweak it, that'll save you a lot of trouble.

Could someone do my a favor and run this through addictive on whatever settings show up stock (I want to hear how this sounds with whatever AD defaults to).

i have slate and AD - never messed with SD unfortunately.
out of these two, slate is better if you want to have a decent drum sound in no time.
however, the best results come from blending them. i tend to use ADs cymbals, slate kick and toms, and the snare will be a 50:50 blend of AD and SSD.

Ah that's more like it. haha
Thanks man, I'm compileing some examples of all the drum software out right now. That midi file has a lot of what people want to hear (blasts, double kicks, jazz beat, rock etc...).

Never tried AD but I am getting very satisfying results with SD2. The main thing for me, is thinking like a drummer and thinking how the cymbals react to the playing. The only thing I am having a hard time sorting out is the hi hats - drummers usually swing the tempo of the hats and THAT is really tough to imitate.

Your'e not alone. It's one of the reasons most programmed drums dont fool musicians.
Under the heading of .... I'm a guitarist, not a drummer, Damn It!!
I'm thinking about buying a drum trigger replacer software. Can't I buy any of the available $100 software programs like EZ Drummer, and then get samples online for more sample choices? My concern though is, am I limited to a certain number of toms/cymbles I can play at one time? For instance, if i wanted to do a Rush cover, could i do it on EZ Drummer?

Sure, I'd say so. I usually make my own beats up for songs but just for jamming and maybe fill ideas it's worth it.
Just did a quick web search and I don't think so, i couldnt even find the midipacks for sale anywhere else, looked on Thomman, Musician's Friend and the GC website, nothing. I got mine at GC back in summer of '09.
I have used Addictive drums for like six months now and have got pretty good sounds out of it.
Btw im new at replacing drums, i feel like i should replace the kick from addictive drums with some samples. How do you do this in logic pro9? I know i have to route kickdrum out of addictive drums to the seperate track but i cant seem to find any software for logic to do the triggering. Is there any free ones?
