    Fun fact, the kit was not plugged in to electricity. All power was provided by Ben’s drumming.

    EZDrummer 1 & 2, Superior Drummer 2 & 3, Steven Slate Drums and Get Good Drums: I've got them all. But nothing, and I mean NOTHING comes close to this library. It works so well. Ballou and RoomSound hit the sweet spot with this.

      Certainly! We've actually created a whole bunch of routing presets that will make Kontakt's routing extremely simple in every DAW. Additionally, we've got a TON of educational videos coming after the library's official release on 12/23.

    this sounds amazing. was considering getting a Roland TD-17 kit which lets users import sounds via SD card. I've done some audio recording before but never really messed with DAW or KONTAKT. Would it be possible to get those sounds onto the card and how would one go about doing that? Thanks.

    • @RoomSoundDrumSamples
      @RoomSoundDrumSamples  5 років тому +1

      It's not possible to add this library to your drum brain. The realistic sample playback is due in large part to our customized sample playback engine built in Kontakt Player. Plus, the library itself is very large in terms of file size and wouldn't fit in the limited memory of the drum brain.

      Converge uses acoustic drums to make their records. We sampled the actual drum kit used on their records in the same studio where they record (Godcity) in order to capture tones that are remarkably similar to the sound of those records. See more here: www.roomsound.com/products/kurtballou/

    The drums sound fine and Ben's playing is stellar, but it won't replace an acoustic kit. There's little dynamics, most hits sound exactly the same.

    Let their sadness be our blessing
    Let their losses
    Lead the way
    The dark horse will one day come
    To free the light from all of us
    One day the dark horse will come
    For all those born to die
    And those that lost the fight
    (How many fallen friends died within our sights)
    Let their hard roads be our way out
    Let their passion lead the way
    The dark horse will one day come
    To free the light from all of us
    One day the dark horse will come
    No matter the man or the machine
    Beasts will become what
    They were meant to be
    In the name of lovers in the name of wars
    We'll show the demons for what they are
    Dark horse ride
    Towards the light
    Dark horse ride onward
    Towards to light
    Onward

      I'd suggest checking out the product page at www.roomsound.com/kurtballou.html . We have a demonstration of all the snares with no processing at all on them. I think you might be inclined to change your opinion if you heard the snares by themselves. At any rate, we appreciate your feedback!
