update done, thanks for the heads-up
 
I haven't used AD much as I already had EZD2 + some kits and MIDI.  I guess I need to experiment some with AD so I don't miss something special :)
 

As far as I could see , the upgrades were for Pro Tools AAX. I saw that go by a couple of times when the files were installing.

Sure love the Electric Grand. And the classic one.

How many midi paks ewe gots oh great Bapster?

When they get my CW coupon sorted out I will own all kits, kit pieces and MIDI packs.
 
The only thing I won't wont own (at this moment's offereings) from XLN is the Electric Grand.

Hail to the King, hail to King XLN!!

 
 

I thought EZD2 was going to be my go to because of the midi pattern tool for writing songs.  I was wrong. 
It is so easy to drag a pattern into a track that I am no longer needing that feature.
For the drums and how you can tweak 'em, I like AD2 better in overall sound and usability than my beloved SD2.
I just wish it had an export wave function for each channel based on the whole song like SD2 has. 
 
I really like how the velocity sensing and mapping has been pre-designed to work with a bunch of hardware. My multi-zone snare and hi-hat are responding really well with AD2.
 
I am enjoying Fairfax-1, Rock Drums, and Jazz Sticks at this point.
 
Happy camper here!

After getting AD2, I went ahead and sold my licenses of EZ Drummer & SD2 (which were my goto drums).....which helped me buy more adpacks!! :)

bapuYou cannot use your three choices for new packs. I already asked XLN support and they said no, only current pack and none of the future packs. That makes sense. Your 3 choices are the entry. They'll need to recoup on the new packs. Cash is the only way to do that.

Damn. Understandable but still kinda sucks. :(
