But a lot of the new SDX's are also really large. The Death and Darkness SDX is 183GB and it's fabulous. The DW kit is so killer and well sampled. Totally worth the money.

Waves does pretty well too. Every once and awhile you'll have to clear the cache, but I haven't had too many issues with it. Although I still dream of a day where we can have one or two auth and manager systems that work with every plugin. I guess this could happen with an App store/Microsoft Store way of buying and installing plugins.

Re: Drum VI recommendations
It looks like there are a lot of different add-ons available for EZDrummer. I assume they give you different kit options, which might be nice for alternate sounds, but what is the basic selection of grooves like? Do you really need to get some of the add-ons too in order for EZDrummer to be useful in a variety of genres? Again, I'm mostly interested in rock, jazz, country, etc.

The plugin updaters from the vendors who have central installers are great. I can update over 100 Plugin Alliance plugins in one go. I avoid getting into bed with vendors who have few plugins and short histories in the business unless I really am tempted with the product(s). Stephen

I do tend to use Battery instead when it comes to electronic kits, however, even though I have the AD2 I have their "Reel Machines" kit. Not because it's bad in anyway, its actually quite good, but there's a certain workflow that you generally want with electronic music and Battery better suits that. It allows you to add any sample you want and offers you many ways in which to manipulate it. You don't get that kind of workflow in AD2 or Superior Drums, but that's because they're distend for a different purpose and are quite good at it. |

It'll be well worth getting EZD2 first before the EZD3 upgrade, because if history is a guide the old factory libraries become paid EZXs once the new version is out. They're promising a lot of new grooves too in 3. I don't think there's any brushes kits in either 2 or 3 factory libraries, so another reason to pick up Nashville in a sale at some point.

Re: Drum VI recommendations
Thanks for reminding me of my one complaint about EZDrummer and Superior Drummer. They both tend to have way too much snare in the overhead channels. The fix is pretty simple as both allow you to control bleed, so taking the snare bleed in the overheads down 50-70% solves sit for me
