Build in some copy protection and some added value in the form of MIDI files, and, voila, you've got some SD Expansion packs. No?
The problem is that Battery doesn't have Instrument Busses that are featured in Kontakt 5 (and heavily in SD), and virtually EVERYTHING relies on the scripting, which can and will misbehave if the groups aren't lined up in the order the script expects it, etc. So yeah, I'm pretty sure it won't happen. |

But wouldn't a function that swaps out the SD drum sample data for the Battery data solve that problem? i.e. Battery snare samples replace SD snares, Battery cymbals replace SD cymbals, etc. That way the remaining buss routing remains in tact, it just works on different sample data. -B ---- Berfab So many plugins, so little time... |

That might be possible, but I don't see the will in NI to do it.  Hell, Kontakt still doesn't have a way of batch-replacing sample references at all. |

Superior drummer is the only thing I use. Recently I got the "roots" kits and the sticks kit is fab. |

http://samples.kb6.de/downloads.php Nice link. That's quite a library of samples. |

I know a ton of people swear by it, but in comparison to the other programs listed above, the overall sound doesn't measure up. That said, I think the MIDI groove library and the MIDI expansion kits on offer for this are excellent, but I try to use them with re-mapped BFD2 or Studio Drummer. Cheers -B The key to superior drummer to me is having things separated, using eq and x drums allot. I hate most of the kicks for example. I can make most of the snares sound great, but I usually have to pull the snare out of OH/room quite a bit and then use a separate verb for that (though I actually really like a pretty dry snare most of the time) Complex? You betcha. But the samples sound the most realistic to me so it's worth it. I've considered getting BFD again, but the examples sound so poor It's like might as well stay with what I have. |
