This seems like a great product! Sound-wise, this is just what I’ve been looking for…. for the LONGEST time. The super-realistic drum samples that have come out over the past few years have lacked one important thing (IMHO), and that is PUNCH! The fake drums in my little 1990s Roland SC-88 sound module cut through a mix better. IMO, you have to be a fairly good recording engineer to get a punchy-kickin sound out of products like BFD.

However, here’s the rub. I only work in a 100 % virtual environment. No real drummers here… just midi drummers. Before I plunk down any money, I would like more assurance that the sampler mappings will be well done and low maintenance on the end user. A well thought out GM kit with multiple velocity layers would be really nice! (Kontakt or Battery would be my format preference)

Thanks
