Default Which Drum Vi has better sounds?

Slate
BFD
Superior Drummer and
Addictive Drums


What type of sounds? Processed drum hits ? Clean natural unprocessed sounds?

I have BFD2 and it's a very natural clean drum sound - what about the other two? How do they compare ?

What's wrong with Addictive Drums?

Truthfully, all are good, and which is best is simply a matter of taste. What I like about Addictive is; value(on sale, its a bargain for a really solid package), ease of use(I like the way XLN allows you to filter the loops to make searching a bit easier), routing to separate tracks(seems more intuitive than SD2, but I have not used the others mentioned) and integration with my Roland kit was dirt simple(wish I still had it). Granted, SD2 offers a lot more options for sounds with all the EZX stuff

It is a matter of taste. If it sounds good to you and you are comfortable using it, then it's good.

Well the reason the question came about was because of slates advertising of a radio ready sound

So that got me to thinking if it had already production compressor EQ's on it I would spend less time modifying the sound that I wanted

Quicker turn around so I can get these free songs out to the people

The simple solution for this is, save a template for drums. I have a track preset with all my drum tracks, plugins, sends; all ready to go.

I can add a vote for Addictive Drums for sound quality, ease of use, and the way you can send each kit piece to a separate channel.
