Maybe instead of doing this, you could release like a genre related LE edition.....Like 3 metal kits. 99 bucks ....3 rock kits 99bucks and so on...... Shit Ezdrummer is 149 plus the EZX DKFH for another 75.....thats $225 and you only get 2 kits....and the orginal one is shitty.

I would buy it right now. I actually was hoping there was an option like this. I did a search and thought this was an old thread, but it's 2 days old meaning it isn't out yet. But I cannot afford Platnium right now, and Slate drums were my next purchase, and an option like this helps out hugely.

Steve,
This is a good idea, but a better idea would be offering downloads of your kits a la carte. There are only a few kits out of your packages that really appeal to me, and I don't want to drop $300+ to only use a few of them.
I'd probably go for the EX, but it depends on how they sound.
EDIT: I saw that you aren't able/willing to do a la carte due to licensing....sorry.

I'd be interested in this as well. However, I would like to see an option of paying a small few to get a physical copy sent to us. Personally I like to have a physical copy for my software.

I just bought platinum today. If these are new kits (are they?) then I would pick this up as well.

ok we are working on it.. thanks again guys..
also, we still plan on making a virtual drum locker... what is this? This means we make a little audio snippet of every drum and cymbal in BOTH rooms so potential customers will hear exactly the sounds they are getting.. so for snares.. a little snare roll and some smacks.. some tom hits, cymbal crashes.. etc.. sound helpful?

Yeah the virtual drum locker sounds cool. I seen it on your home page and I've been curious to when it's coming, so I guess it's still in the works?

Bumpity bump for Mr. Slate. Tried to go to the Slate website to ask, but all I got is the header and the rest of the page is black. On doing a refresh, I got a server error. Must be doing some updates?
EDIT: Got in using firefox, so e-mailed my question there. Page just doesn't like IE right now I guess.
yeah virtual drum locker is in the works... as for EX packs... how about this:
Steven Slate Drums Platinum = everything we make, every kit, cymbal, etc.. $329
Steven Slate Drums EX Pack = 10 all purpose kits (2 metal, 3 rock, 1 Nashville, 2 vintage, 1 reggae, 1 Zep Kit) $99
Then.. EX Expansions a la carte for $49 and come 4 kits each... METAL HEAVEN would have Metallica, Pantera, Deftones, Dream Theater... Then VINTAGE CLASSIC would have Steely Dan, and some new Vintage kits for $49... Then the MODERN ROCKER pack would have another 8 for $99... etc.. So the EX pack starts with the player, all the others are expansions for the player.. kinda like the toontrack EZ system.. Sound good? So basically you'll cover a lot of ground with the original pack, but can always add on as you wish... Or the Bigtimers can just get Platinum..
Hows this sound?

That idea sounds great man, $150 for a ton of sick metal samples is a great deal. Will purchase for sure.
