Hey guys...

I'll give it a try and open a preset collection-thread for Superior 2. It didn't work for Addictive Drums-presets, but maybe there will be more participation here.

So ... post your presets. Awesome would be to also post a example soundfile and information on processing (internal FX-only, further processing in your DAW etc.)

I'm reworking my preset again, so I'll post it in a few days.
 
Heres mine:

In my daw I compressed, eq'd the kick and then fooled around with some parralel compression on that. For the snare I read Oz's guide on acoustic drums for metal and experimented with some stuff he said about recording the snare. The toms suck, in my opinion, but I have no idea what to do for the toms in this program. I also rolled the eq off at about 625hz for the overheads and added a tiny boost to the 3khz region.
Also I tried to make use of the room mics as well, but I dont think theyre turned on in that preset.

Heres a link to the drums i programmed for an Architects cover:

Songs called Buried at sea, havent got the guitars to it yet as my imput just broke and ive gotta do some soldering :)

Hope you enjoy, and please feel free to give me some pointers as I'm a noob.
 
I am starting a preset page on my site for all drum programs. I'm looking for mainly Addictive Drums, DKFH/DFHS, EZ Drummer but will accept and post whatever you have. Drop me a line and contribute!

I'm starting it today so it'll be shitty at best until later this week.

When you say presets, are we just talking your EQ/Comp and 'tricks' for stuff like EZD and original DFHS, as obviously you can't mix within the program, and thus have presets. I'll share (if people actually want my settings!) once the demo is finished.
 
You can include outboard program/plug-in presets or screen shots of setting, etc. I'll just add those as a zip/rar to be downloaded with the drum apps' preset. You can check out how I have it so far. It's gonna go thru some major changes over the next couple weeks I can already tell you that. I still have a lot of HTML and other web coding to figure out. My goal is to make it easy for anyone to find great presets for their type of music so they can focus more on writing and recording than tweaking drums. not to say that they shouldn't learn to tweak...

I'd like to see how far I can take this. Maybe it could become a really valuable resource for musicians around the world?
 
what happened? I'd love to try some presets from some experienced users. I'm having a hard time getting a good metal sound with SD 2.0 :-(

Cheers
 
Holy fuck, I'll be able to use this thread soon.

I"m stoked.

Ah okay...
I think the kick has too much room and it's too loud in the overheads. It's really woofy ... same goes for the toms.

I just fiddled around with it at the moment and didn't even save the changes. As soon as I've got a bit more time to tweak I'll let you know.
Thanks so far ... your preset really sounds usable ;)

The last clip rocks by the way
