As always these are some great,great entries. I've had fun auditioning and programming patterns with all the different kits.
What's made the choice even tougher is that each patch has so many elements, and I like some of the individual drum sounds better than others.

1. Dub Kit + : Elegance and efficiency in sound design. It's got great sound and variety with so few modules.

2. Micro Machines : Buzzy, glitchy, and fun. This kit has a lot of character, which I like.

3. ZEBR_e_A_k : This is a really nice kit overall. It seems quite flexible/useable in a variety of types of tracks.


Cheers to all the entrants.

1. ZEBR_e_A_k (Good kick and snare and good tweakage, the toms I didn't care so much about but I liked this kit best as an all-rounder.)
2. TrumSet (A nice electronic kit also with good tweakage.)
3. fantapsy kit (Plenty of choices for lo-fi kits, but I liked the sound of this one on my test loop.)

Really great presets

I can't believe how much work I put into every single detail of my preset and now it doesn't have the slightest chance

Simpler seems to be better sometimes

Wow, brilliant patches!

My vote:

1.) Angry Kit (Very versatile and punchy, interesting variations)
2.) ZEBR_e_A_k (Good range of sounds)
3.) Micro Machines (Interesting!)

I also liked the rhythmic idea of the murder drum kit and many other details the authors did put in there.

Thanks a lot to everybody who participated!

The courageous have spoken: drums are not easy, especially in ONE patch! My votes:

1. Dub Kit +
2. Angry Kit (MW + PB + AT)
3. Micro Machines

BTW, I really liked the wood blocks in murder drum kit

I didn't have much time for this ZPC, but I did try to do a single authentic sounding acoustic bass drum... I was using 4 channels of synthesis for it and it was going to take tons of fine tuning... Urs: might be time for some kind of resonant box model

1 [3pts] Dub Kit+ - A lot of little quirks and subtle variations popped out at me with this one, so it had a lot of depth when playing

2 [2pts] Micro Machines - Very 'correct' sonically, and also a good range of sounds

3 [1pts] Hello Kitty - I think perhaps the potential of this one is a bit hidden, it sort of asks for a certain percussive style, and has creative sounds in that context

A bit harder to judge this one for the same reasons it was hard to make patches - it's really multiple sounds put together. Congrats to all for squeezing it all in, sometimes the limitations inspire as much as anything and there was a lot of that in this contest. There was something in every patch!
