Hi
Is there anyone who can give me a hint what to look for to get some nice and gentle drum grooves to match classic light ballads? I especially like "side stick" grooves. Addictive drums ballad groove pack would probably be a good fit for my music, but since I only have the free version of AD, I am not able to buy this package (without buying the big package, which of course I could, but then I get a lot of grooves that I do not need because they are too "noisy" for me).
Are there possibly any of the additional packages you can buy for Session Drummer who could meet such a need?

Thanks for your help

Have a look at the Platinum Samples midi grooves, includes format for Session Drummer as well.

toontracks sells tons of midi packs

don't know if they are compatible with what you have, but worth looking at

Another +1 for Groove Monkee

Agree that the Groove Monkey and Toontrack grooves are good sources for midi drum grooves.  Have not tried Platinum Samples yet.  For odd timing and progressive rock style midi grooves you might also take a look at http://www.oddgrooves.com .  They also give free grooves away each month as part of their newsletter; so sign up on the site.

Thanks for all replies, I' check them out

Thanks. jan
