Thread here.

Speculate away.

More drums, updated interface, hopefully some added mixer features/functionality (built in VMR would be nice, Superior style :hotjump

Maybe some kind of Ez Drummer II groove finder sorter thing.

Didn't he promise no updates until the bugs were fixed and AAX was finished recently?

Someone pointed this out on Gearslutz the other day and Steven popped in to explain it:

SSD/Trigger is under Yellow Matter Entertainment (who also work on the Raven and Dragon/Fox hardware) and a different company/team/office location to the guys in "Slate Digital" that work on VCC/VTM/FGX etc. The Slate Digital guys are exclusively working on the AAX updates (VMR is apparently "done" and currently in beta testing)

As far as SSD5 goes, I just hope the interface can actually fit on a laptop screen this time...

SSD5? niiice..
i´m very looking forward to it!

would be awesome if they also have some kind of flow-note technology for cymbals and hihat as 8Dios Zeus has

Wtf is flow-note technology?

 

[HOFX]

ZEUS is the first library to utilize our new flow-note technology. One of the challenges with normal drum sampling is that elements like hats and cymbals artificially stack upon each other. In reality a cymbal doesn’t stack. It partially mutes when its hit again, while also carrying some sound from the previous hit. We call this concept Flow Note.

Hopefully better than crashed so no notes technology.

Haha I recently got a new laptop and put SSD 4 on it and noticed it didn't resize anything. I'm using Reaper and have the correct "resize plugin window" settings applied but no luck.
Is there any work around to this?

 

[Trevoire520]

Not as far as I'm aware.
