Black Velvet, Session Percussion, Funk, and some snares.

Looking for variety, I got:
 
Black Velvet - Loud, Grunge, Rock
Studio Percussion - World, Dance, Funk
Reel Machines - Electronic , Dance, Pop, Rock
and the associated Midipaks - Loud, Percussion, Reel (recognising they can sound good with alternate kits).
 
I already had the Studio Pop, Prog, Rock from X3.
 
I figured I could get the Fairfax Bundle  (1&2) at a bundle/sale price (if the GAS levels rise). But whilst demoing they probably weren't even next on my list ... which was probably Vintage Dry. Is there a bad choice? Sound all pretty solid for their respective jobs/genres to me.
 
Still to choose my kitpieces.

I considered getting the Jazz brushes, just to have that variant available. But then I figured, in 15 years of recording I have never had the need for brushes. Nor could I foresee the upcoming need. (of course now that I have publicly stated this, tomorrow I will indeed no doubt have a surprise need for some brushes sounds!)
 
So rather than add to the vast collection of relics that are gathering virtual cobwebs? I went with Fairfax 1, Black Velvet and Retroplex! Yes the old faithful, big drums go boom!!!

During Black Friday discounts I bought seven midi packs, at $10 back then. Any pack named  "... songs" is great.

XLN can be slow for support. Took me two weeks last time.. 

I contacted support a couple times and it took two days for a response. The responses were well worth the wait. I'm an AD fan! (I believe I even convinced them to change their WEB site to clear up the confusion between "upgrade AD2" and "AD2 engine only".

Fairfax 1
Black Velvet (enjoying this one!)
Studio Percussion

I picked up Black Velvet, Metal and Session Percussion, now I have all but 5. Fairfax2 was the one that I wanted but skipped till next time. I like Black Velvet alot.
 

Fairfax Vol.2, Jazz Sticks, and Session Percussion. 
I picked up the corresponding MIDIPAKS for these kits.

I keep wondering what they would do next, they seem to have covered most bases. I would be interested in a Hot Rods Kit and a Mallets kits. (as well as a stack of percussion Kit Pieces)
