Toontrack is offering ezDrummer users a chance to upgrade to ezDrummer2 for $99 when it comes out May 6th. I was all set to go for it until a friend of mine pointed out that for the same amount of money ezDrummer owners can also upgrade to Superior Drummer2. SD2 for $99 is a no-brainer for me so I jumped on the offer. Funny thing is I never received the crossgrade offer for SD2 through Toontrack?
 
Anyway here's the info for those interested.

Hi George, thanks for posting this. Yeah, it's a no-brainer for SD2 (I got this same deal a few years back, but most of the time, I prefer to got the EZ way out as I don't have the patience to tweak). There seems to be a lot of hype on EZD2, so I'll wait a bit and see how this plays out. A popular complaint is that Toontrack doesn't notify users on upgrade deals, so I'm not surprised you didn't get anything.
Good to see you in here......
Patre :))

If you bought it at Audio Deluxe you also get a $20 gift card...making the effective price $79...

Patre, Good to see you to my friend. I like the simplicity of ezDrummer as well but for the price of SD2 I had to jump on it.  I know what you mean about the hype surrounding EZD2 although it does look like a nice upgrade from EZD. I see it as EZD on steroids with a few extra options to tweak things if so desired. Alittle more tweakable than EZD. Lol. Shame on TT for not notifying their customers. Guess everyone can't be as awesome as Cakewalk. 
 
CClarry, Thanks for the info. Unfortunately I did not do the crossgrade through Audio Deluxe so I missed out on the $20 gift card. Oh well... still a bargain at $99, eh...

Yes indeed...SD2 and BFD 3 are the top dogs....no doubt about it...

I've been wanting to get SD2 for the longest time but couldn't justify the expense. The crossgrade price leveled the playing field for me. I wonder if EZD2 is 16 or 24 bit?
 
Heard great things about BFD. I'll probably end up getting it too if it goes on sale. I'm sure it will at some point but for now I'm all set with drums. 
 
CClarry In your opinion how does ADD compare to SD2? I'm liking it quite a bit but I've always felt that SD2 was well... Superior. Lol.

TT often sends out pricing which says you can buy it off the site for X amount or a lot cheaper from a retailer. Bizarre.

Never received ads from TT regarding discounted prices. Weirder still I do get email ads advertising new products. I dunno?

Keep watch here and cclarry will tell you about good deals when they come up. (If my wife knew how much $ cclarry has cost her, she'd be pretty wizzed off!) I thought about doing the AD deal for SD, but I'm just going to sit back and see what happens. I'll let a few get EZD2 and see if it works as advertised. I think EZD2 is still 16 bit. All things will go on sale again.

That's a good plan Clint...the 16 bit thing was one of my issues with EZ2 as well...

Geo....AD is kind of "in between" EZ and SD.  It offers more then EZ, but not the "Sound Quality" of SD2...

BFD 3 offers the whole shabang and more...I love it.  What I hear and can do with it is far greater...

BUT...for $79 effective dollars....I'd be ALL OVER SD2 ...that's a steal...and
with SD3 probably "lurking" in the background...probably a very wise investment...IMO..
