Default Drums On Demand

Hi All,

Anyone familiar with this product? From what I can tell it is not a plug in like BFD. I guess if anyone is using them I would be interested in:

quality of the kits?

ability to manipulate tempo?

Can the samples be triggered by MIDI?

Likes / dislikes.

How do they compare with BFD?

Thanks for any comments,
Rick

DOD are pre manufactured loops and one shots.

They sound good, as they're real drums recorded with real good mics in real good rooms played by real good players.

They come is various BPM configs, and can be adjusted using time compression/expansion with the trim tool.

BFD is a drum module with exhaustive amounts of data included.

Two very different animals.

I use both.

Youre better to get the Rex versions of DOD, that way you
can drag and drop them into the timeline and they will
follow the tempo changes you set automatically - no need
to use time stretching, which will seriously degrade the quality,
(which is execellent). The only draw back sometimes is that
you find your self dictated to by the loops rather than the
other way round, you can rearrange the beats slightly within
a loop but its not always successful, hence why i use DFH
more these days
