I think this expansion pack just set a whole new president, not just for Toontrack but for MIDI drum programs in general. Everything is just very well thought out and it sounds incredible! Tough act to follow. A serious good job! Thank you for this!
YES YES!!! We love you Toontrack!! We need more Metal and this might be one of the best. Lots of variety, especially the snares. Also asking for a friend, will there be a Nu Metal/Alternative expansion in the future with the current resurgence of the genre? 👀
Aww! Great stuff! I mean, these to guys are so right! It might sound like platitudes and advertisements, but: Even NOT being a pro musician this Toontrack stuff changed my life, literally!!! Or maybe, because being not a pro. Perfectly mixed drums by a pro engineer in great rooms with mics for thousands of dollars, live into my beautiful ears...Wow! I guess, I wouldn't have stuck to the edrums and this deep dive into MIDI, music production, edrum DIY if I hadn't ordered ED2 with the low-priced edrum kit. Damn! I was blown away ... of that sound and realism AND quite pissed that I didn't know about this great combination years earlier. And I tried GGD, Mixwave, ML Soundlabs, BFD3, Krimh Drums etc. There might be ok for some backing tracks, sound ideas ... but for VST drumming I love this Toontrack ED3 and SD3. I have a lot of possibilities to play expressive with tons of articulations. Haha! More than I used on a real drum set. Great job, dudes!
Dirk being Megadeth drummer, is for him forbidden to say, that One on One is mainly famous because of Metallicas Black Album? Of course, Rust in peace was recorded there too :). But seriously, I am looking forward to play this EZX...
YES!!! That's what was hoping for this year's Metal Month. Finally a real Metal EZX again after all the post-industrial-whatever stuff of the last years. Already purchased!
Hey! This is a unique and never-before-released recording. There will be no SDX released and based on this session. But the EZX can be utilized in Superior Drummer 3, of course!
@@Harrysound I agree. I'll also add you can open these EZX releases in superior drummer and it's practically a "version" of sdx with all the included options you don't get in EZ Drummer.
In my EZXes i have 'Crash' and 'muted hit', but there is no 'bow tip'. And If i load Crashes from the core library in my EZXes, they also lose their bow tip@@DEADLINETV
@@alexsuckow9526 That is very odd. When I look at my Metal Mania and click on any crash, from the drop down menu where you change crashes I can see at the "preview articulation" section Crash, Bow Tip and Mute Hit. When I change it to, say, Bright Room, same options. Make sure you're updated and all.
@@DEADLINETV Thank you very much! All my Toontrack products are updated in my product manager. In Modern Metal, Metalheads, Gospel i have only Crash and muted. In Drums of destruction and Custom shop i have only Crash 😅😭 And bow tip from the core library only works with the kits in the core library. Grrrrr! Again, thank you very much!!! Greetings from germany
@@toontrack I need a like purposely deader kit cause y’all got like eight metal kits, but look at the popularity of these dead kits we want more of those
Listen to audio demos of all kits, find tons of info, interviews with Dirk and Chris etc. on our site!
www.toontrack.com/product/metal-mania-ezx/
Finally! Two hi-hats and low-tom on left side - ideal!
Dirk's such a superb drummer ,and genuine humble human being!

I look forward to November every Year, and the reason is metal month! 🥁🤘🎶
Lovely sounds
Thanks! Dirk and Chris did an amazing job on this!
Awesome sounds indeed. Dirk is an amazing drummer! Great that he did this kind of signature library for Toontrack … and for us.
YES YES!!! We love you Toontrack!! We need more Metal and this might be one of the best. Lots of variety, especially the snares. Also asking for a friend, will there be a Nu Metal/Alternative expansion in the future with the current resurgence of the genre? 👀
Always the best from Toontrack!
🤩 Thanks!
I love this EZX! Brilliant!
Really love how the toms sound on this EZX, especially on the 1990s HI-FI preset. 🤘🤘
Yesss dry toms that don’t have a lot of ring.
Glad you like it!
@@UseTheSupeRsonic That's exactly what I remember from band rehearsals, flat toms through my earplugs.
@@toontrack Cheers. I was lucky enough to see a lot of bands live in the early 90s and was always a fan of that drum sound.
wow, sounds great!
Wow this sounds really good. Had to pick up a copy!
Awesome!
Welp, there goes my weekend! Very excited to pick this up
Have a great songwriting weekend!
OK this sounds great 😮💨
Thanks, happy you like it!
the new snare sounds are fantastic and the overall sound of the drums is killa 🤘🤘 time to write some new metal stuff xD
Thanks!
very cool!
This rules. Love Dirk
Aww! Great stuff!

i agree
🤘
Please make an sdx with Eric Valentine!
That would be stellar
Personally I'm excited for the soilwork kit ❤
They should have recorded *THE* Black Album Gretsch Kit and Tama Bell Brass Snare in One-On-One for the exact Black Album Drum sound..... @toontrack
It would be amazing if we had an EZX of Aquiles Priester.
@toontrack
Great sound/tone
As a sd3 owner...will there be also a sdx version?
✌️
I think they only do an EZX of an existing SDX, if they have released this as an ESX first I’m not sure an SDX of the same product will be be released
Hey! This is a unique and never-before-released recording. There will be no SDX released and based on this session. But the EZX can be utilized in Superior Drummer 3, of course!
@@ThyWorshipMetal Didn't Progressive EZX come before Progressive Foundary SDX?
@@toontrack Sad... I would INSTANT buy just for the One and One room sounds. Raw sounds.
@@universox The EZX includes an orginal mix preset, which is the raw unprocessed recording.
06:49 this sound slaps !
any planned for making superior version??
They already answered no. To be honest these , what I would call “next gen” EZX releases are really all we need.
@@Harrysound I agree. I'll also add you can open these EZX releases in superior drummer and it's practically a "version" of sdx with all the included options you don't get in EZ Drummer.
When will the SDX be available? 😆
Sounds great! Maybe next time a EZX with Matt Mquire? Would be great!
Will there be an SDX this year?
Sounds great. A Chad Smith EZX or MIDI pack would be sweet.
Naahh! We need Gavin Harrison!
What the hell did Yoshiki do to mess up One on One before it got sold again and reopened?
HOLY SH. Please, please launch this ROOM in a SDX format.
Just use this EZX in Superior Drummer and you will have the room with bleed controls
@@melvinbrinsontrue! This library will not be an SDX but it can be used in Superior.
Please do dual zone Crashes (bow tip) with all the EZXes, like the core library😊
You can always load those crashes!
In my EZXes i have 'Crash' and 'muted hit', but there is no 'bow tip'. And If i load Crashes from the core library in my EZXes, they also lose their bow tip@@DEADLINETV

And bow tip from the core library only works with the kits in the core library.
Grrrrr!
Again, thank you very much!!!
Greetings from germany
That was a little misunderstanding, I meant the EZ extensions in general
Please Toontrack. Just take my whole wallet!
Shall I?
When y’all gonna make a dead kit
it exists in the core library of EZdrummer 3. The tight room. Recorded in the deadest of dead booths.
@@toontrack I need a like purposely deader kit cause y’all got like eight metal kits, but look at the popularity of these dead kits we want more of those
Also, can you make a preset that works with VAD rolling kids especially the VH-14d hi hats I mean they’ve been out for three years at least
Give us sdx with the same drum kit.
You can use this expansion in Superior Drummer 3.
@@toontrack Yes, but there will be no all bleeds and mics. The functionality is less than if it were a library SDX like Death&Darkness
