Double Bass Mania II

[TheDuke]

Anyone using Double Bass Mania II (or I for that matter) from Beta Monkey? I listened to the sample downloads and they sound ripping. Just wanted to know if anyone has any "real world" lowdown before I spend $30!

The disc downloads are here: http://www.betamonkeymusic.com/dbm2.html

Anyone with the good word?

Why not just program those beats yourself? I listened to the demos and they didn't sound that impressive.

yeah got them 1 N 2 not the worst you can do... depends on your skills in programing.

I wanted to avoid programming and get real drums. Just was wondering if anyone actually had and used this one but it aint much $$$. I thought the grooves sounded great actually.

I actually have DBMII. Its actually better than the first. Saves time from having to program drums and getting ideas down as they come into your head.

Full,

Hey, sounds great - thanks for the info. I am going to give it a go as well. I definitely want to get ideas down and not fiddling with so much in the way of drum programming.

FullMetal,

Do you have any music you created with the Double Bass 2 disc yet? If so, I 'd like to hear how it sits in the mix for you.

The sample music Beta Monkey has up for the loops sounds good to my ears:

I am just how it handles faster tempos. Same sounds?

I will post something later tonight to give you an idea of DBMII. For now, here is something I did with the first DBM.

Full Metal,

Excellent work - nice collection of classic metal (I checked out your other tunes as well). Seems like that disc is a bit more raw and old school then the second one which definitely sounds more like stuff out now.

Then again, it all comes down to the riffs and playing. So, I am sure you're making whatever you have for drums sound good! Look forward to more when you get it posted.

Full, you do anything with the new one posted anywhere?

 

[FULLMETALSPEEDO]

Sorry about that. I had a crazy evening last night and never was able to sit down at my computer. I will have something tonight.

I suppose DBM stands for "Dissapearing Bassdrum Man", I can't hear one in your sample fullmetal
