lowdown Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) Good deal going on for EZdrummer at the moment. Download price $29.00. Just about the easiest Drum module/sampler around, with some great expansion packs. I have had stuff from Sweetwater before, no problems at all with them.

paul_5 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 +1, I love EZ drummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urb Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I use Superior drummer a lot and love it - but EZ drummer is great too - so well, easy, to use and it sounds great - highly recommended - I struggled with BFD for years and SD was such a relief I haven't used anything else for the past couple of years... EZdrummer is a great place to start though. I'd also recommend EZplayer Pro which allows you to brows and edit MIDI files - which makes putting together long drum parts a lot easier... but that actually is a feature of EZdrummer... so buy this now - it's bloody brilliant.

clarkpegasus4001 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 i use EzDrummer and I can highly recommend it. I also have Addictive drums but unfortunately there's a fault with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowdown Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 Looks like the deal has expired Jake, I posted the link last weekend. I think it was one of those get in quick deals. Its worth checking in at sweetwater.com from time to time, They are always doing deals on download software. Garry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noelk27 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Or why not get the vastly superior BFD Eco instead http://www.fxpansion.com/index.php?page=103&tab=276 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious as to why you think it's vastly superior. Not that I doubt you of course, but it would help me decide whether to splash out on it despite having committed myself to EZD and several expansions.

lowdown Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 ECO has a really nice FX section within the mixer. Everything in the box really. Kit sound wise, they both sound great. For me the FX is the swinger with ECO. But hey at £29.00, a real bargain regardless. Garry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charic Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 My guitarist is using SSD (Steven Slate Drums) and they sound great although I'm tempted to go the EZ Drummer Route. On the one hand it means we can do drum work across two computers (SSD) On the other it's added versatility...(EZ) hurrumph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus27 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I'm new to EZdrummer and so far having a blast. However, I want to start writing my own drum pattern and songs. Will EZdrummer work with Pro Tools and is it possible to use EZdrummer to write your own drum patterns/songs within Pro Tools? Total newbie here so go gentle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you can either edit the midi track in house or import one from tuxguitar or whathaveyou. I know this all sounds a bit vague but I don't use protools so I am not entirely sure how you set things like that up.

lowdown Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 Once you have the Synth/VSTi [EZdrummer] inserted in ProTools [Or any DAW] and a Midi track assigned, you can just write in a drum part in the Piano roll view, or the score/editor view.

Dropzone Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 On topic sort of but a bit to the left. Can anyone tell me how / if you can add your own bass drum to EZD and if so does anyone have a link to one that is a good warm dance drum sound (thinking David Guetta) Thanks Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
