Drumcore Ultra - $599 or $639- depends where you look on the site.
 
Wow
 
 

 Who would buy this?  That's a lotta BFD, SD2, EZD, AD2 who have proven track records.  Taking this long on a product makes me ? development.  With the competition that has surmounted since then $199 may be realistic. To me that would be like recent Tracktion priced at $399.  I also have Riffworks. Guess when the last time they worked on that?   Those prices scream arrogance more than reality.

$49 for Lite and $249 for "prime".
 
They would claim Prime and Ultra to be offering something different, but it just looks like a massive collection of Audio loops to me with single hit, MIDI based stuff added in (the old Kitcore.) I have no interest in Prime or Ultra but they may appeal to those who want audio loops in a convenient player. The price still seems high when compaired to some loop libraries.
 
I would also be reluctant to spend any more money with the company given the fiasco in bringing this to market. It’s over two and a half years since that took pre-orders.

I only ever had Kitcore and found it useful. I preordered the Drumcore 4 light as a 64bit player for that. Of course in the time I have been waiting I have added much and probably wont use it frequently.

I don't have much interest in the audio loop part of the program.

So, installation seemed to go OK but very clunky. Now I need the migration program to Import my Kitcore 3 stuff, its not in my downloads. Lets see how responsive support is?

Deluxe = mostly audio loops.  
 
Submersible Drumcore licenses not transferred to a Riffworks account. Make Music did this with Garritan products. All Mackie Tracktion 2.3 licenses were transferred to Tracktion developers who then gave you Tracktion 4 free. Lack of license transfer is why I will never consider this product. Even Cakewalk still carries my Sonar 2 licenses.

 I can think of many. Sonar browser, Reaper browser, oh wait any DAW has one.  Talk about being late to a party. So many drum modules have been out.  They would have to really market this like Submersible did. They also failed to go 64 bit when their competitors did.

This could be why I don't have the migration program, I hope not, It was certainly implied that the Kitcore content could be used in DC4, but that was a long time ago! I am waiting on support to get back to me.

The free "sweatener" kits that were given out early in the delay period work in my Kitcore, and they appear in my account.

All my old libraries transferred.

I just received a response from support with detailed instructions. I will give it a try tomorrow.

I ran the migration there was an error message but it seems to have migrated my Kitcore content OK. I need to dig deeper, maybe some of the sonic reality expansion packs were the issue.
No, stuff missing from the migration for sure!
 
Authorisation was straight forward but beware iLok haters!
 
Not impressed so far, no multiple outs that I can see, unless I am missing something this is a big step backwards from the old Kitcore.
 
And - its crashed Sonar already.

Well, ran the migration tool again and the error message says, "users licence is not an upgrade type" I think this is different to the first time but I cannot be sure.
 
So back to support, who at least seem responsive.
