i use some of the basses too...i also love trilogy for bass. the korg m1 and wavestation have a lot of the sounds in my korg TS.
sampletank 2 has some good sounds too... just gotta go though them

as for how it works with nuendo 3, flawless....simply go to your vst instruments(f11) load it up. and start loading drums...
if you'd like i can send you a few joints.. 1 or 2 track done with hardware vs software.. i bet you'll get atleast one of them wrong...
Cool:

I'll take the quiz and see if I can tell the difference.

One of my best friends just purchaed an MPC 4000, and most Hip Hop heads here in NYC swear they are a must for your studio and workflow. So we are going at the age old battle; of MPC/Hardware vs Guru/Software

I also am pretty much a software based guy, I have a Roland A33 Controller, Mackie Control, Trigger Finger, Triton Rack with Moss card, Motif ES Rack for hardware. For software, I have Battery, Stylus RMX, Hypersonic 2, Trilogy, Atmosphere, Reaktor, Pentagon I, z3ta+, Absynth 3, Reaktor 4, Pro 53, B4 Kontakt, Halion, Big Tick Rhino, Xphrase, Albino, Sonik Synth 1, FM7, Omni Synth, Plex, Reason, Waldorf Attack, PPG Wave, Virtual Guitarist, The Grand, Scarbee Rhodes and Wurlitzer, and more that I can not remember right now.
