In celebration of Drum Month, Cakewalk has put together the first ever collection of Session Drummer 3 Quick Kits. These pre-mixed project templates load right from quick start menu in all three versions of SONAR X3 without any assembly required. Open a quick kit, drop in your sequence, and you’re ready to rock with great sounding drums. Happy drumming!

Hi, I just downloaded these and followed the directions in the readme. I get to the step where I'm asked to merge the templates...I never get a prompt to merge. I have Windows 7 64 bit, X# Producer...am I missing a step?

Thanks, Andrew! Another great freebie.

It's possible that it did not prompt you to merge. Some systems do and some systems don't. It may be a user setting. Regardless, go to  C:\Cakewalk Content\SONAR X3 Producer\Project Templates and see if you have 65 Quick Kits there. If you do then you are golden!
 
If you don't, go back to Project Templates.zip file that you downloaded and make sure you select C:\Cakewalk Content\SONAR X3 (Producer, Studio) as the destination to extract to.

Good job.
 
For those who have issues installing find your Project Templates folder (if you don't know where it is look in Sonar Preferences). Open up the ZIP,  within the ZIP navigate to Project Templates folder. Drag the files contained within to this folder.

Ab Fab ! Thanks a lot Cakewalk - and well done Dan, terrific set of templates...
