I know this is probably in the wrong forum, but Sweetwater have a 50% off sale on EZX.
 
They do this from time to to time.
 
I highly recommend the Nashville, Classic, Claustrphobic and Twisted kits.
 
Post back if you ar interested.

Audio Deluxe is always cheaper...

Cart price is $34.99

Don't tempt me!  I've just upgraded to X2 and don't have anything left for more drums.  I have EZD and invested in the Funk kits (I tend to use the Jabo one a lot).  Very impressed with EZD - sounds and midi patterns are all excellent, and the VSTi is totally stable.  Far better than Session Drummer imo.

I know what you mean - but £25-ish is a bit hard to ignore.
 
I'm tempted by the Jazz, funk and Vintage rock.
 
I highly recommend the Nashville - fantastic toms.  Don't be put off by the name, it's not just for country.  I picked the the Twisted and claustrophobic for fifteen quid from timespace.com on specials.  If you're not on their mailing list - get on it.  I didn't think I'd use the Claustrophobic much, but it's a killer - really cuts through in a mix.

Hey,JB. Don't forget to pick up the Latin Percussion EZX. It is a must have if you use any percussion. I use Superior and I am very happy with the drum librarys but it dawned on me that there is not so much as a maraca in there. I use 2 instances of Superior, one loaded with the drum kit, and another loaded with the latin library. The LP is well worth the price.

Audiodeluxe is selling Pop EZX for $34.99 - this one is usually at least $10 more than any other EZX

Thanks, Sidroe, I have been contemplating that one as well.  What to do.  I can afford to get them, but could I afford the ensuing divorce?

I've just seen the New Rock Solid EZX.  Looks/sounds geat.  It's not on the Sweetwater site yet, but is another temptation.

Thanks for the tip.  I have Pop/Rock, Latin Percussion, Funkmasters, Classic, Nashville, and Vintage Rock EZXs.  Thinking about getting Pop! and Electronic.... any thoughts?

@Sidroe - I think Latin should be my next purchase, but a quick thought on maracas - I've always recorded them live with real maracas - it's amazing what a difference it can make to the feel.  The same is usually true for tamborines, too. But I'd still like all the other stuff - congas etc.  More cowbell..
 
@ tbosco - I don't have those, so can't really comment except to say you can never have enough drums..
