[Chryst Krispies]

That snare on the Chili peppers demo is BALLLLLIN

 

[KeithRT99]

they sound pretty close to the originals.

 

[theunforgiven246]

Awesome man, you might have a future customer here (its between this or some form of DFH, and I'll probably end up with this because I'm lazy and these sound fucking amazing as is)

 

[Ben Johnson]

Slate, you magnificent bastard.

These samples will soon be the love and bane of all AE's. Love, because the legwork is already done. Bane, because any chimpanzee who wants to make a record has complete access to KICKASS drum sounds without having to do any of the aforementioned legwork.

On behalf of all the wannabe's and n00bs out there, I say thank you.

 

[jangoux]

Awesome! How much will it cost ?

 

[botus99]

I'm LOVING those sounds! I'm really interested to hear the Steely Dan, Tool, and DMB samples too. VERY nice work Slate, just hope its not to big of a hit to the wallet

 

[Ermz]

Sounds ace, as usual! I think I'm more than satisfied enough with the 1.5 Elite Mixer Edition though... you're making drum mixing too easy for us, man!

 

[felipe-x]

Awesome! How much will it cost ?

free for guys like me

 

[felipe-x]

METALLICA and ACDC cymbals sounds aweomse!...

 

[JeffTD]

Will the samples be offered un-processed, as well?

 

[Metal Overload]

what about some van halen drums, i like those

 

[Gustavo_Loureiro]

Can't wait to hear the TOOL samples!

 

[Ronnie_Rocker]

freakin good! i´ll be the first one to buy, and you know it already got the Slate drums and Slate elite mixer

 

[fistula]

i like the songs too) sounds funny - the old stuff played with changes! ahah

yeah - great sounding samples!

 

[reneisgod]

i hope the release date aint to far away i cant wait any longer

 

[blackbird]

Sounds Awesome!!!
Any upgrades from Elite Mixer Edition ?

 

[SickBoy]

what about some van halen drums, i like those

Alex certainly has an instantly recognizable sound, I wonder what he does to achieve it... It may vary a bit from an album to an album but the essence is always there.

 

[CJWall]

Will the samples be offered un-processed, as well?

I doubt it, that's not really the point. But, would be a cool bonus!

And wow, these sound amazing. I didn't realize they were programmed until I read the thread once through again.

Wow.

 

[VH100R]

I when I heard the Metallica demo.
