Opinions on ADPacks for Adictive Drummer?

So I see a few packs for sale via the CW store.  Anyone purchased any?  What are they like?  Worth the $$$?

    I just got to try out the Indie kit and it was simply great.  I just posted a song over in songs forum (Happiness is a Warm Drumkit) if you want to hear it in all its glory.  I tweaked it up to be huge, but it is  awesome addition to AD no matter how you use it.

    Every one that I've purchased has been excellent. I own the Retro, Black Velvet, Jazz Brushes, Funk, Session Percussion and all the separate kit pieces. The funny thing is that I use pieces from all the Paks for my main kit I created. Only the Jazz brushes is used on it's own. Sometimes I use a certain kit from one pak but that all depends on what I'm after. I like the sound of the dry and will eventually get that and the Jazz sticks.

    Notation, the original DAW. Everything else is just rote. We are who we are and no more than another. Humans, you people are crazy.

    Thanks for the reviews, guys.  I might just have to jump on a couple of those ADPacks.

    Listen to the demos at each ADPak, they are good and realistic examples. I have most of them except the retro and heavy metal genres. Reel Machines is a really nice ADPak that can be variated a lot, if you are into synth pop/ 80-retro stuff.

    Don't get fooled by the JAZZ kit ADpak.... it sounds wonderful for all kinds of music, including PROG ROCK if you are into that sound.....

    I got the jazz brushes and it's worth the money. I've mapped drumtrax over to AD so I have a lot of midi patterns available, but I'm sure I'll get a couple more ADpaks ...
