IK Multimedia/Sonic Reality Drumtracks on sale at 50% off, are they worth it?
I got a message from IK Multimedia advising that their Drumtracks packs--each of which contains 10 song-length drum tracks in 16-bit 44.1 kHz WAV format--are selling for $15 each through August 1. Anybody tried one or more of these? Is the playing/recording quality/general funkiness pro quality?
Thanks, lightninrick

Hello IK Obi,
just wondering about the length of the drum tracks; they are said to be "song length," though the times (duration) shown on the track list are much shorter than the actual song length.
Can you clarify that please?
Thank you.

Thanks.
What I'm trying to find out is, are the drum tracks full length - from the beginning of the song all the way through to the end of the song, or are they abridged segments?
Thanks again.

Sometimes they are the full song they come from, other times they are abridged and other times they are different but done "in the style of" the original song such as lifting signature grooves from it (not the recording but replaying the parts).

Thanks for explaining. I'm glad that I asked, because the term "song length drum grooves" led me to think that they were, well, song length drum grooves. I must admit, I don't get it...

Hey guys! Yes our drummer tracks are on special right now for our 15 Year Anniversary Group Buy! They are meant to replace a pro drummer!
With due respect, I was hoping to hear from a user, not the vendor. Are there any users? I can't even find a review of these tracks on the Internet. Regards, lightninrick
