Now that I've upgraded to Platinum, I have to decide which ADpacks to get.  Rather than impulsively clicking on the ones that fit my style of music (since I already have more Rock patterns and kits than I know what to do with) I thought I'd take a deep breath and ask what others got.  Are there any standouts? If I had the time, I'd sift through all the demos, but I think I'll probably go for something like the Funk or Jazz types.  Writers Block and Punk might be worth a listen.  Just wondering what peoples experiences were. And I thought it would be neat to ask since I never started a new thread before;)

Fairfax 1 and 2 and Blue Velvet.  The others OK, but not nearly as good as these, in my opinion.

Jazz sticks, Studio Prog and Black Velvet.
 
So far I like the Jazz Sticks most - and not just for Jazz..

I got Fairfax 1=I like it and it's not just a rock kit
Session Percussion=I like the "kit" type format of percussion in this one
Jazz Brushes=I wanted some Jazz brush sound and now I have them.
I already had Indie and it's a good one.
I feel good about those choices, no regrets. I would like to have Jazz Sticks and Fairfax 2. I tried to fill needs with my choices. I am very happy with the new ones.

Wasn't that impressed with Fairfax 2, not sure why..

I auditioned all of the packs and went with Fairfax 1, Funk and the electronic one.
I like the electronic one as it sounds good and has a lot of content and I like the Fairfax.
Not so sure about the funk one now but what with having EZD2 with a bunch of expansion packs and SD2 I do have a lot of choice (also known as too much choice).

Grum.

Subjective of course, but my inventory is Black Velvet, Vintage Dry, Studio Pop, Studio Rock, Studio Prog, Session Percussion, Fairfax Vol1, Fairfax Vol2. So far my favorite is Studio Prog. 
 
Superior Drummer used to be my favorite program (actually my son is my favorite, but since moving to Japan, he needs to get a "quiet" kit, read MIDI Pads), but I have switched to AD for many reasons including ease of use, set up, etc.
