ToonTracks Superior Drummer 2.0 SDX Expansions...

It's available at audiodeluxe.com for $79.99 and this from a very reliable source.

$99.99 is quite the bargain. And I wouldn't be surprised if they can be had for less from the usual local resellers. I know I've been waiting for a sale to get my hands on the Roots combo. Just a heads-up for those interested.

Roots is the one I've been eyeing for a while now.  The sample tracks up at Toontrack sound really good.

Indeed (a la Tealc). 

Picked up Roots Brushes, Rods and Mallets.  Thanks for the heads up!

I don't have roots yet.  but I bought NY Vol 2 & Music City both for $79 each recently from audio deluxe (yeah, I'm behind!)

But you're still ahead of me in post count.


Not that either matters.


Oh wait, now that I have both Roots, I again own all Superior Kits as well as all but one EXZ (Number One Hits, don't care for it for some reason).

Maybe their a bit swamped with sales from the $79.00 SDX kits.  I've seen these sales bring vendors to their knees before so it's a possibility there is a delay.  Hope you get it soon.

I know I'm just being impatient, but did anyone buy from audiodeluxe today and get your serial numbers yet?

Last time I did buy from them it only 2 hours to get the serial.

It has only been 3.5 hours but still......

Bapu--it is my experience with audiodeluxe that they do NOT send serial numbers for the SDX expansions unless you tell them that that is only what you want; they ship SDX due to the size.  They only send serial number for the EZX expansions.  I know because I ordered NY Studios SDX a couple of months ago and waited and waited for the serial numbers.  After a couple of email exchanges they said that they do not do the serial number for electronic delivery option with SDX.

Well, I bought from my SDX from my guy at Sweetwater...who matched AudioDeluxe's price...but said I'd need the "installers" so he'd send me the box.  Go figure.

I've never ordered from Audiodeluxe, do they offer serial number only ordering?  When I upgraded from EZDrummer to Superior earlier this year, Florida Music Company sent me the Toontrack VSSD Box (a boxed set of all of Toontrack's installer discs for all the released EZX and SDX installers as well as the other drum related products) so in the future I would just require serial numbers for purchased products.  

I made that purchase after Root's was released and it came with the installers for both the Stick kit and the Brush, Rods, & Mallets kits so no media would be required if I purchased it from them.

At this price I'm really tempted to buy Roots, possibly both libraries.

does anyone have any of the MIDI packs?  are they worth $29 each?

Ja.


I think they are worth it. In fact, the basis for these drums were from some of the purchased MIDI.


Like Rain, I'm simple.


Oh wait, he did not say that about himself.

I'm considering EZ Player Pro, maybe this'd help. Sometimes I really like the hat and kick in one pattern but the snare's a bit over the top and such.

Anyone has experience with it? Seem easier than to breakdown loops into your DAW and then merge them.

EZPlayer Pro is a cool little programme. Easiest explanation of it is the two videos, which you may have seen.

Thanks for the quick reply, guys. Seems it could fill the gap - there's one thing I'm not totally fond of in Logic and it's deep editing midi drums grooves. I guess I should be ok w/ my laptop's native resolution.


Ordered. :P

I own the Jazz midi pack and love it.  Morgen Agren is a great drummer with nice nuanced playing.  I was going to get the Roots midi pack last month because I figured it would cover my Morgen drumming needs until the Roots SDX expansions went on sale.  But with this unexpected sale, I just went on and bought the SDX and of course get (same) midi files included.  So, my expereince is that the midi packs are more than decent especially with Morgens creative drumming.  Some of the midi packs however are the same grooves as the ones included in their SDX counterparts, but some are not.  So you need to be carefull and figure out if you already have them in a SDX or EZX expansion.  For me, I found that the Jazz Midi pack is NOT the same as the one in the Jazz EZX, but that the Roots midi pack is the same as the midi files in the Roots SDX.
