Time for SSD

[AgeOfGeburah]

So I have been resisting the urge for some time now but I guess I'm jumping on the SSD train aswell.
Some samples are just THAT good.

My question is, which EX would you recommend for someone that almost entirely use samples for metal?

Thinking about the SSD + 2 EX offer.

So name 2 Expansions for metal, that you believe is the best!

Thank you!

You can save a few bucks if you get this
http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.co...s-EX-Special-Drum-Library-Software?sku=584239

You get two download codes in the box. I got it before christmas.

As for the packs, well Metal pack ofcourse and I chose Pop&Rock Volume 1 since it has the slate kit.

Another good deal is the audioMIDI 5 EX packs for $80 deal they have going on, but they only have a limited number avaialble so if you are going to buy it, get it soon.

5 for $80 Deal

They also offer the basic EX pack for $79 - so you can get the whole EX set for less than $160 and have all the kits.

Something to look into if you have not already taken the plunge.

Pop Rock Vol 3 is another good one. I got that with the original deal.

Get this:
SSD Ex @ Audiomidi

...And use custom kick/snare to get the perfect drum sound!

I got this deal about 3 months ago, and had a nightmare downloading them, so they just sent me a code for Platinum instead.. I think it 2 or 3 extra kits..

I'm sorry but I still don't understand..

Is it better to get TRigger for replacing VSTi drums? Because Slate himself says no on his site.. (or the Kontakt packs.. I don't dislike Kontakt, as some pplz here)
I mean I don't need to replace any real drums, just my midis..

Or should I wait for version 4...?

Then my order might result in the same manner.
They took my money but didnt send any codes, I've sent an mail asking what happens now.

Edit: oh nevermind, they send the codes manually. Guess I'm too eager to test this stuff
But hey, my mail might actually speed it up!

I say wait for 4.0, but hey that's just me.

SSD or "Steven Slate Drums 3.5" is a Virtual Drum instrument.. use it for creating virtual drum tracks from midi grooves or edrums/pads/keys..

TRIGGER is a drum replacer.. use it for replacing or enhancing live drums (or other drum virtual instruments such as superior).

SSD does NOT include raw samples, wavs, gogs, or tci's.
