ok , I will try to imagine that everyone is having tons o fun discovering the intricacies of the hihat, snare and rim.

nice changes birrbits, the layering sounds more natural now.
One general question about dk+ if anyone knows, why when playing from a controller keyboard do the samples cut out and soon as you release a key? I noticed if I hold any key down while manually drumming it lets the samples ring out but I only have so many fingers

perhaps I don't have something set up correctly?
cheers

edit(yes my 1985 jx8p is the problem here, it sends a all notes off cc after I release a key,thanks birrbits)

maximilians, the samples don't cut out for me when releasing a key. I would assume that my keyboard is generating a midi note off upon release.
I suppose you could try looking at the events with midi-ox.

I also forgot to mention, with this version of the kit I would reccomend using the 'do not normalize' option in DK+

finally I checked it, thanks birrbits!

no sure which version I have,
but I like a lot the snare, the bass drum and the cowbell,
the HH sounds very hard hit (?)

BTW do you want me to upload it at
http://thedkplus.dashsignature.com
?

I'll be taking a trip in a few weeks to rerecord the cymbals with a more appropriate set of mics. (The Rode NT1 I used is really too sensitive for that type of thing).
The snare is a mix of the nt1 at a distance and a close mic sm57. The bass was with a superlux pra-51a (awesome cheap bass mic).

Please do post the kit on the user site.

Also, tonight I'm finishing up a second DK+ kit project, will post soon.

more goodies?

. Do you have other cowbell samples? this one is a little flat to me.(i hate to say anything),but it doesn't really match the agggresive nature of the other samples.

no, you are right to say it

that cowbell sample wasn't taken from that 'session'...
its from a really old recording of his kit

The cowbell is definately on the list, besides you can't just have ONE cowbell sample

Hey birrbits, I finally got around to playing the kit. I love it- rough and raw, I am using it in a track now, if I ever finish it

I will post it for you to hear. I would love to hear some more kits from you- one can never have enough live, unprocessed drum sounds, IMHO.

Sounds great pw, I would love to hear the track.

For my next drum sampling project.....I was actually contemplating a certain MediaVision Waveblaster daughtercard....soundset by a company who rhymes with Borg

Update #2 (or do I say version #3?) coming this weekend following my trip to rerecord the drums (and especially the cymbals)...
