Subject: [OT]Good drum samples?
Message #220541
I am still hunting for a REALLY GOOD drum-sample-set or virtual-instrument. I currently use BFD and have both the original kit and the Steve Albini extension kit, but find the snare samples 'thin' and 'scratchy', the under-snare mic very harsh with no pleasant 'highs' to bring out and the cymbals seem to sound a little 'out-of-phase' or something - they just don't 'ring' right. I know this is all a matter of personal taste, but to put it into perspective I recently heard the best drum samples I've ever heard - home made by some guy with a drum kit and a a prject studio - warm, rich, full and fabulous - he was very proud of them and wouldn't share them - can't blame him really. Why do all the sample sets sound so 'thin'? I have also used DFH and as well as a couple of ProSessions sample sets and always find the a similar problem. IS IT ME???? PS: I know the ideal solution is to get a real drummer - but that is not possible or desirable for my situation...
