Is It Just Me Or Is Strike Very Disappointing?
Undeniably sounds great and the breadth and variety of available grooves are impressive.
However, it's buggy on my system (didn't install properly, GUI flashes or loses focus when mousing over active plugin window, regularly crashes Pro Tools when changing presets, etc). Plus it has to have the most convoluted way of working possible. To use the style editor you need to manually switch between eraser, arrow and pencil tools and you better make sure you are clicking very precisely or it isn't recognized as an edit. Now let's drag the pattern as midi into a track. Ummm, no, you need to drag it into empty space to create a bunch of new midi tracks (one for each drum) then manually assign them to the plugin channels. And let's not forget the whole "midi channel plus two" issue to use it in kit mode. I have to say it is decidely un-PT8. Very, very disappointing, especially for the price. The bundled BFD Lite totally pwns it for functionality and is at least it's equal in sound quality. First Digi plugin that really disappointed me. Thoughts? |

First digi plugin that disappointed me: Dverb
I actually think strike is probably my favorite virtual drum plugin. Sure, it has bugs, but none that stand in the way of my workflows. I think it's likely we'll see a strike update soon that addresses some of the issues people have with it and when that happens IMO it will truly stand out as the best vdrum plugin. My 2c

Idiosyncratic is the word you may be looking for...
Still great though.
