I love that Jason isn't hyping anything, he's just being human and real. So nice to have the lack of ads and clickbait. I'm so intrigued by this world, even though I'm a total rookie at it. Added bonus: How much fun Jason is having opening his new gift. :)
I've owned Damage 1 for many years and it's really a great drum library. But Damage 2 is in a whole other league. The naturalness, cleanness and power of the sounds is unprecedented. I really look forward to start using this in my upcoming productions.
I'm just wondering if Damage is useful anymore! I have it with Komplete Ultimate, but not gotten into it yet. Only now starting to do cinematic and epic percussion. I know the sounds of Damage 2 are incredibly good. If I get it, will I ever want to use Damage again?? I seriously don't know when and where I would still use it.
@@chrissullivan1673 HI Chris. For my part I think that the first version of Damage will be very sparesly used, since Damage 2 is so much better in all categories. Maybe some of the loops can be used here and there as fillers, but Damage 2 will definitely be the workhorse, since it sounds so much better.
@@chrissullivan1673 Damage 1 is still nice to use for some aspects. For example in my opinion it's still easier to set up for industrial rock songs outside of scoring, more like using a kinda regular drumset. But that may just be because I am not so used to Damage 2 and have been using the first one for around seven years. Also the Hihat from Damage 1 clearly has more steps from closed to open. I think it's six or seven. The one from Damage 2 has just three. I am currently building a kit in Damage 2 right now which can be used for industrial and electronic rock songs right away though. I think most of the time I will be merging them together, because each one has it's strengths. Anyway, I have become such a Damage-fan that I refuse to use other drums than D1 and D2 - simply the best stuff :D
Dammit Jason, I had already decided to pass on this for now and save the money - but after watching, I'm buying it after I type this. Thanks for the great video. High 5 my friend.
sourcefor Hybrid. Sometimes ITB but always master externally. Studio is temp for another month or so...the other racks are behind the door due to fan noise :)
Got a mixing question. Just purchased Damage 2 and my wife and I are used to mixing drums in separate tracks (lows, mids, highs) to get the EQ just right. This guys playing the entire spectrum of frequency all on one track? Will this muddy the mix? We're composing with synth tracks, risers, bass, vocals. I'm concerned the immense power house of Damage 2 and all of its imbedded reverb will create a challenge regarding the entirety of our compositions. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Johnny, thanks for writing in. You can certainly use one D2 instance and then use the Master FX to shape the overall sound since these drums were programmed and designed to work well both in solo or ensembles. Assuming you are referring to “low, mids, and highs” as the different drums - you can program each stem (low, mid, and high) on a different instance of D2 (3 in this case) to have dedicated processing over each group of instruments. Additionally, you can always edit the Tone Low and Tone Hi controls on each individual drum to further shape them in the ensemble. Hope this helps!

This video sold me. And the loyalty discount for Damage 1 is a nice bonus. Thank you, Heavyocity!
I really didnt expect to see you here
I think they really should have just made it an update for Damage. Damage 2 is just so uninspiring to me.
Jason’s walkthrough could quite possibly be the #1 selling tool for Damage 2 🤣
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen. He’s professional, educated in field, and just letting that inner child have fun. Best way to sell a product
Thanks for taking the time to record this. I also listen to the dry microphones first, so this was immensely useful.

If i was in serious need, i'd get it instanly after Jason's reaction ! ;D
You had me at close mics.... Just Wow. Great vid. Thank you for posting!
This is the legendary composer of the legendary Tomb Raider (2013) Sountrack
great presentation...love the close mic demo!

Tried both and Damage is better than Damage 2.
Okay, this video sold me, purchasing tomorrow!
The fastest 30 minutes of my Life :-) Amazing both the library and the presentation!
I was already sold, but after seeing one of my favorite composers go through this library, I might just crap myself!

I love how Jason is having fun here!
Die Lache ist genial Mann😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍!!!
Ok, gonna buy This one too. Wow
That initial reaction to the close mics - the aftermath of having finally chased down that sample library dragon!
Love me some Jason!!!
The expression on your face is priceless.
this sound is measured in the richter scale
Let’s go!!!
Made me want to buy Damage 2.. again!!
😂
Watching you play with this new toy has made up my mind. Im getting this!! Im a drummer too
man im joying his facial expressions its like watch a kid at his favorite drum show
'how in the name of John Bonham did they get this sound with just close mics?'
Just seen this at plug-in Boutique with a 35% discount. Really tempted to get this..
You will not be disappointed!
Welp. I'm sold.
There is no competition for percussion libraries. This shit is mad
16:28
sold at the large gong.. 13:01....
At this point, I find Damage to be derivative of itself.
Looks too happy for a dude that composed Dead Space trilogy :D
RIP that keyboard!
I bought it before I saw this video, but now I know I didn't make a mistake :)
Was that a slight earthquake @2:29? :D
Love this!
Is that your studio? Nice Manley in the Rack and do you mix in the box or out!
sourcefor Hybrid. Sometimes ITB but always master externally. Studio is temp for another month or so...the other racks are behind the door due to fan noise :)
Is it me or did Jason have multiple releases in this demonstration :)

que teatreros son los usanos jajaja
Damage 2 may have a better interface than Damage, but Damage is a better library than Damage 2.
I think/know I NeeD "Damage 2"!
Head knobbing, eh...
