Hey there,
I'm sure some of you guys did your demos with a drum computer or software like Superior Drummer 2.0...
I bought SD 2.0 a couple of days ago hoping to find a vast choice of different rhythms to choose from.
At that price point - compared to the WAV loop CDs that I have... But maybe I expected too much.
It only comes with a few different types of MIDI grooves. Those do have a lot of variations, but none of them fits the song I have in mind. And I can't change the feel of the song just because my drum loops don't match.
I tried to program something on my keyboard, but compared to the MIDI loops, my finger drumming really sucks. It's hard if you want different snare strokes etc. that a real drummer would do naturally etc.
So... unless I buy full blown digital drum - which I won't as I can't afford or play it...
How do you guys do this? I saw that there are a few MIDI loop libraries on the toontrack website for sale, but you can't really audition them, it doesn't say how many songs they contain and I don't want to buy them without knowing what I pay for.
Any suggestions on how to solve this or how to program great drums at home?
Thanks,
Mat
