I actually did a few session in the A-studio at Avatar where they were recorded and I can personally attest to the fact that it is indeed a perfect room for recording drums. The SD drums regular drumset was recorded at Avatar Studios. In fact, it was, “Wow, great recording!”Īnd my love affair with this program has only grown since. I wasn’t told that it was SD…and my first thought when loading them in wasn’t, “Oh great, fake shitty drums”. The band sent me the individual audio files, labeled as an acoustic set would be (kick in, kick out, snare top, etc.). I still remember the first mix I did using the SD drums. I am in no way paid by the folks at Toontrack (unless of course they’d like to start!), I just freaking love their product. Now I might sound a bit like a fan boy in this post, so I apologize ahead of time. I never heard one that I thought sounded even remotely close to lifelike.Īnd then, along came Superior Drummer. Lifeless, soulless, plastic, 2-D sounding pieces of junk. Ten or fifteen years ago, I freaking hated drum programs. Remember how old school drum modules sounded?
