eDrums and VSTs
Приєднався 24 лип 2023
I cover rock, metal, funk, RnB, EDM, country, pop and hip-hop drum samples/VSTs/plugins. Most of the time I am playing the samples/plugins live via e-drums. I've reviewed software from companies such as GetGood Drums, Hertz Drums, ML Drums, BFD, Mixwave, Room Sound, Bogren Digital and more -- and it's a blast to do it!
About me: I've been drumming for 25+ years with both acoustic and electronic drums. I've had many edrum kits in my life, from Yamaha to Roland to Alesis to Simmons to a DIY kit made from wood, mouse pads and PVC (hey, I was young). Currently, I play a Roland TD17kv drum kit with a few addons: an extra CY-5 cymbal, a Lemon 13" ride & three rack-mounted PD8 rubber pads. I use a 2Box Drumit 5 module purely as a trigger-to-MIDI interface for the PD8s. The TD17 module goes via USB to the PC. The 2Box module sends MIDI out to a MIDI-to-USB converter and then via USB to the PC. A Focusrite Scarlett Solo is my audio interface.

which would you recommend for classic country?
hi, the tchackpoum website doesn't exist anymore but I can give you a link to my dropbox to download these kits. I am the creator of the banks and the tchackpoum website.
Awesome! Do you mind sharing the midi mapping for kontakt? Thanks!
Yeah, this sounds pretty good. I wonder how it stacks up against my release. Wanna try Deviant Drums?
I had the same thought about that brass snare, as soon as. I tried it, for some reason, “Sad but true” just played in my mind.😊
I bought this and was very pleased with the amount of options available plus the compatibility to my DAW, very user friendly and what I love the most is that it is mix ready.
How did you map your drums to bernando drums? I bought it but can't map my drums
Here are a few more ideas for review because this channel would be a great place to have all drums VST in one place with one style of production which I adore BTW! CounterKit by Kyle Brownlee ezdrummer 3 Kurt Ballou Vol II Drums by Roomsound
Good stuff. I enjoy your channel! Please make GGD reviews if you can. Thanks!
SMOOTH!
which vst did you use in the video?
This is great, thank you! I was able to hook up my Nitro Mesh through a USB cable and did a midi take, but I can't figure out how to export a consolidated wav as well as wavs for separate components of the kit (ie. hi hat for one wav, bass drum for another wave, etc). How do I do this?
Hi any reason why when i hit the kick drum on my e kit its the hi hat the response in bfd player.
Any reason why in bfd player when i kick the kick drum on my kit its the hi hat that response in bfd player
Is there anyone here who can honestly tell me that Superior Drummer 3 sounds MORE realistic? Particularly the hihats? I'm looking forward to figuring out what I may be doing wrong when listening, because I think there's a huge difference and BFD3 usually sounds about 20-50 percent more real (at minimum)
What about cymbal chokes?
I'm a complete newbie. Just got the Alesis Nitro Max kit. it comes with BFD Player. Is it possible to use BFD player in GarageBand for Mac? If so, how would I do that? Thanks.
How do I turn on the humanizer?
Hello thanks for yours videos 👍...if you had to choose between, ml drums dwell...yamz or ggd benny greb ?
I get slight popping with bfd player. My rig is definitely powerful enough.
the link for tchackpoum drum kits is dead :(
Direct module to laptop is not for me..coz i don't have a high end gadgets.. But i do have interface sacrlet 6i6 but no idea how to connect interfere and record v drums on my reaper...can u plssssss explain it to mee in details
Great great video, thanks for the time you invest on these. Question, have you tested or made a video about Native instruments studio drummer?
Super demo! Super drummer too!
Just bought it. Another great review! I'm going to need a bigger SSD (I'm now on 2 Tb)
Great video thanks for the advice. I have a Roland TD07KV, running all thr appropriate stuff through an iMac, reaper and I have purchased Counterkit from SoundBlind, however my snare, hi hat and tom isn't picking up but everything else is. How do I overcome this so I can get the full kit to work on my kit? Floor tom, bass drum, cymbals and rim shot works but the rest don't which is frustrating!
is it possible to just record the module sounds? i'm fine not using and vsts /drum plugins
Pretty decent. Can you play fast kick drum for an example? I ask cause the snare still kind of machine rachets when played fast.
Are you familiar with drumforge?
Hi, is an easy midi mapping/learn for edrums available?
I Love ML Drums! I have all! Did you check DWELL? A DW Collector 90s Kit...Simply Fantastic!
What library would you recommend to get closest to a sound like on Refused’s The Shape Of Punk To Come? It has a very organic yet punchy sound with the absolute best snare and toms I’ve ever heard in a mix
I actually use Krimh Drums for kick, toms and some cymbals and ML Drums for the snare and the rest of the cymbals. ML snare is I N S A N E
Holy cow do these samples sound good. You can hear the depth of which they were recorded. So many drum libraries, so little money eh?
You got it, my friend.Very true. And I kinda messed up the audio on this video -- the crashes are too loud. Im not sure what happened, but it really does sound quite excellent. If you're pop, or want a classic funk/pop/rock kit, its just perfect.
But only one snare sound basically
I am a huge fan of Glenn and his channel, I might be wrong but I think ELE was more to do with Jackson Ward who did all the sampling. I am so tempted to get it. What kind of latency are you getting, I assume from stand alone app?
Thanks for clarifying that! And good question. I tested the first versio of tghe ELE 2.0, so they may have improved the resource-demands....but latency was good. I did have to raise my buffer level for my audio interface a tiny bit above the normal (from 64 to 96) but even at 96, the latency is not very noticable at all. I tend to be able to play fine with latency up to 128 or just above. so 96 was fine.
@@eDrumsandVSTsthanks for the reply. You on windows or Mac OS?

not one good video on mapping an e kit with ableton, huge opportunity for someone
Im sure it is! Pretty popular DAW. But I dont see myself spending the money for it, unless they have a free option I can use to make the vid!
Why is it that nobody mentions the Cakewalk DAW?
I used Sonor, which I believe was related to Cakewalk, about 25 years ago or so. but hnestly i dont know why that is the case!
@@eDrumsandVSTs I started using Sonar from it's first release. Cakewalk was the company and Sonar was the DAW they produced.Then not long ago Cakewalk the company was purchased by the Gibson Guitar company and they continued development of the product naming it Cakewalk by BandLab, and offering it free of charge to anyone. Now they have two paid versions but continue to support the free version.
The crisp ringing snare on Virtuocity is my favorite snare tone, even though I played with heavy hitters most of my career. Yeah, sometimes a deep wooden snare is great, but the metallic snap to a tight thin snare is something special. All of the kit except the dead kick on Pop Pink Drums sound amazing. Most tones are really alive, but the kick sounds like someone playing it through a big cotton ball under water. Too fake drum techno for my taste, but I guess some might like it. The Reaper sample is much nicer. The full and musical hollow ring on the bonus Svorzando snare is absolute magic. The rim shots on Buzz are great too. The Simone kit sounds great with all drums, and if one wants a bit more sub on the kick of the first track, it's easily done with EQ, but I love how live it is. The second track kick sounds so much more compressed, but it's still live. There are too many nice toms throughout the video to comment on. I'm an old retired bass player who paid attention to drummers very closely for decades. Nice selection. Thank you for the demonstration.
Thanks for your input! We bassists and drummers must stick together! I agree on all your points -- the reaper kits are extremely good for being free. they are very good anyway!
Thanks a lot !
There's also RW5 Complete Bundle by Ryan Wilson. Pretty good multiformat drum sounds.
Looks nice...is there a free option? or are you just suggesting in general?
NVM i see the free link...thanks for the heads up!
How do i use this with my Roland Td17? Idk how to get this setup
start with the TD 30 MIDI map -- you can check the video and see where I clicked to get that section up.
I'm using it since since some time already. I like the realistic sound.
Great free drums!
Can’t remember if you mentioned or not but how much is it?
I usually dont, because plugin prices change so much, but right now this one is 71 euros, so youd have to convert for whatever you are, unless you're in europe of course.
Why can't I output each sound channel of the drums from the sampler with separate channels to process each one
Which DAW do you use? Just google "mixwave multi out channels" or something, that gave me a bunch of good looking videos to explain it
