Or at least not any of the ones I've tried. None of their "metal" kits are tuned to suit someone tuned to E. The reverbs Toontrack has stock on their kits I usually mute and go with Valhalla Room or Valhalla Plate.Īll their kits sound great it you are doing modern stuff tuned to Drop C. Haven't got one where I like the drum tuning. I actually think all of the kits I have from them are tuned too low for more classic stuff. Big fan of their brand, and the usability and design and everything is fucking excellent, but for the exact drum sound they don't cater exactly to that. Don't get me wrong, I love Toontrack and I've spent a lot of money with them, but they don't really do 80s metal drum sounds. :lol:įor a more "classic" metal sound like that, I have a number of problems with Toontracks stuff. :lol:Ĭlick to expand.The "whip crack" snare on that album is fucking amazing, specifically on Evilution.
#SUPERIOR DRUMMER 3 FULL#
Good way to rule out velocity as a culprit and tell us we're all full of shit, if nothing else. For kicks, if you ARE using quick loops with max velocity, try dropping in a similar drum beat from a MIDI pack recorded by a live drummer with some human velocity choices, just for kicks, to see how the preset sounds change.
The raw drum sounds in Superior 3, and the way the program interprets articulations and turns them into drum performances by layering samples, is extremely natural sounding, provided you're willing to put the work in to get velocities right.Ĭed, I know you're saying velocities are irrelevant here, but are you using pre-existing loops with fairly natural velocity variation, or did you just program something quickly with all velocities at 127? If the latter, then velocity absolutely impacts tone and amplitude of a drum part, and all-max velocities are going to make a mess out of any compression, at a minimum, plugins on the drum kit, as well as probably not play nicely with EQ settings that are expecting something a little more nuanced. The only project I've done with Superior, though, UI built a kit and then routed it into Reaper, and mixed it there. I've used them here and there while demoing out ideas, and for that purpose, they're totally fine and I have no complaints. I honestly haven't spent much time playing with the presets in Superior 3. which on the other hand, has more realistic velocity dynamics (especially hihats) Yes I do differentiate between what I LIKE and what "sounds good" compared to album recordings.Īnd SSD5 and PD just sounds way more finished and usable than Superior 3. well, I guess, perfect sound for "djent" bands, overall the presets do sound pretty good. But it has a little fuller sounding presets than the overly clicky/trebly SD5 stuff.ģ. Steven Slate 5 has decently realistic velocity levels, but not like SD3. Presets vary but most are quite bad to my earsĢ. Superior 3 is easily the most realistic when it comes to velocity, hihats and all that. I already regret making this thread because it's stupid and a WASTE OF TIME when I could be ROCKING OUT instead.Īfter trying out a few I THINK I like Steven Slate 5 the most.īut the "realism" factor is very different in these:ġ.
