Finally...I've been waiting for a Stewart Copeland kit for years. Thank you Toontrack.
that snare 😍
Yes, i was waiting for this too. Thanks Toontrack. Have fun David and Will.
OH GENTLEMEN!…
This is my favorite producer and engineer of the time, these are my favorite drummers of the time, and these were my favorite albums of the time.
NOTHING could be closer to Drum Heaven for me.
So THANK YOU.
Thank you…
Garbage😂
@@AudioReplica2023 YES! I forgot about GARBAGE! Butch Vig totally gets killer drum sounds too. They were the natural next step after these drums. Right on, dude!
Bought it a few days ago. This masterpiece has already a place in my future recordings. It's character and soul is just so enormous, so inspiring. I like a lot of SDX packs, but this one is so SPECIAL - if you want to sound huge, pop and try to mix your skills with the best sound in the world from 80s music era - it's irreplacable. There is no other library like this on the market. And I really like that we get two libraries in it - acoustic and lovely recorded and processed electronic drums.
Thanks for the kind words Michał!
In The Air Tonight!!! My all-time favorite drums sound!!👍
The console used for the Phil Collins "in the air tonight" sound (the Helios from the Townhouse) is right up the road from me now. ShoreFire Studios.
Awesome! Thats were we recorded "The Classic EZX"
Oh man, I thought Rooms of Hansa was the one.... Then I thought Decades was the one.... Then the Legacy of Rock became the one.. But no.... This, right here, is THE ONE.... The actual real life One... I instantly got my credit card out the second I heard that Copeland snare....Jeez, that 'Snap' is fabulous. Thank You Toontrack for keep coming up with these amazing SDX's.... You keep making em, I'll keep buyin em 👍😎
Sounds fantastic! i own superior 3 and its astonishing the work that goes into it. An absolute monster of a tool. Toontrack always delivering the goods.
Toontrack always leading the way! I've always said this and I'll say it again. Toontrack has the best drum libraries for any genre out there.
It blows my mind how much goes into the making of these expansion packs. Great job fellas!!! Its always above and beyond with Toontrack
It's great that Hugh is still working and telling stories of olden days
I already wanted this library. But after hearing the “Mama” drum sound, I literally squealed like a girl!!!😂😂
🤣 ... I squealed too...and then clicked "buy"
Me to
As soon as they said Manu and Peter Gabriel, I was sold! Secret World Live was the cd that got me started into drumming and my love for Yamaha Drums.
Same goes for Phill/Chester with Genesis and The Way We Walk and the Sonor sound.

Baby dont you loose my number!
Damn, you guys impress me everytime you create a new SDX or EZX. This one here is a masterpiece! Awesome job, now i just have to wait for the download to finish!
The DEFINITIVE gated reverb library, incredible! 👏
This is absolutely on of the best SDX along with Death for edrummers. It's a must have. Thanks TT for making this. As an Edrummer I'm loving it!
Wow! These are amazing samples.
wow, I was waiting for anything Hugh would share about his biggest hits and how they were recorded, for a long time. And now this! Wonderful! I could watch and learn from him for days! Hope he will be conducting workshops or produce more video clips about those great sounds in the future. And I hope he will continue to bring us new and fresh sounds, too!
Another impressive product by Toontrack
Extraordinary achievement from all involved in this TT library.
Incredible! Of course, I don‘t wanna sound like Phil Collins BUT it will be great to use these superb gated drum sounds now for so many ideas that I haven‘t been able to proceed yet. Toontrack always surprises me!
This is my favorite SDX yet!
This sounds amazing! Wow 😮
I remember when Phil Collins was allowed to act 🎬🎥on screen. All of us cried for days😭
Sounds amazing. Brings me back to my teen years listening to all these great artists. :-)
Always great work.
Toontrack you are the best
Excellent. And next on the to get list.
Damn TT is killing it with this one. Amazing choices and amazing execution. Sounds unreal.
I have to get this.
Absolut amazing ❤
Absolutely great. Whatever Roland conjures up in the future with the technology of dwdrums. It will never come close to what toontrack puts their heart and soul into. I love the sound and the feeling when I play my e-drums live on the stage with the samples from toontrack.
How do you go into the console, when playing live? Do you use some kind of soundcard/interface connected to the computer with at least 4/8 outputs? (Which one?) Do you use a laptop btw?
Or I've heard some solution to use an Intel NUC without a display, put Superior to autorun (i.e. start automatically when Windows has booted), and get a virtual Dante licence and go to the console's Dante input through the Ethernet socket of the NUC.
So in the end it's like a Windows Mac Mini with the output being the Ethernet port, through the Dante Virtual network, going straight into the console's Dante input.
What do YOU use? :)
Oh yes. That's what I feel. A few kind words and old tellings from the famous engineers, some nice words from Norman and baaaaamm. I am there.
Perhaps, it's their marketing department but I believe that. I mean... The artwort, the Making Of ... I buy that all !!!
@@galgogergo Hello my friend, sorry for the late reply. Yes, I am using a MacBook Pro that I have connected to my TD 30 via USB. In the Toontrack software I have selected the TD 30 as the audio device. This works wonderfully. I don't notice any delay. I haven't used Windows software for ten years. In audio, the Mac is actually the standard and I will probably never go back to Windows.
I play a custom-made edrum set from diamondelectronicdrums in England. Been playing live with it for ten years and it has never let me down. If you have any questions, just contact me. I'm happy to share my knowledge.
Good lord. This is amazing.
Just Got This... Absolutely Amazing
The Studer 800 24track machine... Stunning work...
This is VERY VERY COOL. I love toms and I love everything about this video and new release. Wonder job! 🥁
I agree Marc! Love seeing you on Produce like a pro!
Thanks Marc!
🎉 I love it❤
Omg this might be what I’m after, damn those demos sound good
I am buying this!!
God I want this sdx so badly. Gonna save up. Love Hugh's work and I love SD3. I want Manu Katche in my tunes!
Yeah, I totally want this one.
OMG I got goose bumps. You chose 4 drummers from my top 10 and Hugh Padgham is an engineering god. Take my money!
Pretty amazing
Awwww, right from the moment Hugh talks about having used these old consoles.... It was so damn clear for me, that I have to grab this SDX. Really.
Just for me, beeing able to say: "Listen guys, these a samples recorded through the "Beatles" console!" I love those stories. Also the Ball and Biscuit mic story. AND I am 42, so I am a kid of the 80s.
I am a physicst ... and doing radiation therapy right now, but I really should have done some audio engineering kind of things. Ha!
And Norman? This guy is so lucky, working with all the creme de la creme engineers. This must be sooo cool!
Thank you for that Making Of!
I’m 40 and downloading this tonight. My TD50K2 kit is waiting
I tried to get that thing from Thomann US for 133$ but, they figured out that I am in Germany. Our at least PayPal... damn. At Thomann Germany it's 159€. I think I have to clarify that "mistake".
@@eDrumsInANutshell thanks I’ll buy from Thomann US since I’m from the US. They got good prices
@@LocaliLLocano Wooow, that sounds amazing! I use rather low-priced pads. Alesis type, ATV kick, 15"/18" Lemon cymbal pads and a DIY snare.
And the Audiofront eDRUMin modules!
@@eDrumsInANutshell that’s a decent kit mate
Magnifico.
Awesome Toontrack! Like many others, I'm awaiting the ported EZX version of this bombastic 80's library!
That sound though. 🫵
this will be awesome for prog rock/metal
BEST SDX EVER ! - for me: all in one !! ❤🔥👍🏾- Now only the HYBRID Sound SDX from BUTCH VIG is missing. 🙏🏾
Tuning the drums Copeland style is one thing (octabans included) . Capturing the style of a genius drummer like Stewart is another thing. Ofc Padgham is a brilliant producer, and I very much look forward to check this out
Those are some tasty concert tom tones....
After going to the website and listening to some of the samples, the Yamaha Tour Custom samples sound exactly like my Stage Custom from the late 90's when I record them. I use different mics but the sound is exact!
Because the wood layup is the same.
Birch/Luan (Philipine Mahogany) and the SC has some Falkata added too
Nashville SDX vibes i'm getting here. And i mean that in a VERY good way!
What would've been icing on the cake for this expansion is if they had Chester Thompson do the MIDI.
5:45 - in the air tonight (drums)
So this is the master
I haven't watched the whole video, but I wonder what the polar patterns were for the ambient mics.
I have only just bought EZD3. If this were available for it, I would buy it immediately.
They will usually release a ezx sample pack that is a derivative of the SDX.
OMG!
damn. i just purchased ez3. now i want this. ive always thought hugh p take on drums is the best!
Oh, my goodness me! 🙃🙃🙃 And yes... I can feel it! 😉
Well, I’ve been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
"Not being able to hire Phil Collins" That seems to be a common problem yes 😁😁
Oh God!!!
The RED Yamaha Custom Recording kick is the stuff of myth, legend, and possibly the most recorded drum set of the 80's!
ONLY THE RED ONE mind you...
True story!
PLEASE PLEASE. Can you release a thinned down version for ezd3?
🤘🏽🤘🏽
To really make a complete Phil Collins kit, as in the Genesis 2007 tour, you needed to include actual drum stool samples!
Hello, please consider adding a AU/VST host to the mixer so us drummers can add our own effects with 3rd party plugins. For instance I would love to apply specific plugins for the lo-fi sound while playing a live gig with my Boom Bap band.
You can enable multiout and it does that
@@KaiMusicProductions I don't want to use DAW, I'm talking about the standalone application.
Can we have this as an EZX for EZ Drummer 3………please? 😊
please!?!
EZX version please.
Well. I’ve just upgraded my Toontrack SSD from a 1TB to a 2TB.
Now I’ll just wait for the discount.
Wink wink.
Not gonna lie the girl in the video is GORGEOUS!!!!! Those eyes!!!!!!
Not bad at all... We need the same for high tuned snares and we have all!
Take my money!!!!! 😅
Mine too!
Can you feel this down… loading to your drive to… ni…ght… oh Lord,
Are you, just waiting, for a moment, don’t tell the wife, oh Lord, oh Lord 😂
Nostalgia ain’t what it used to be
Piece of history - hope it will not be replaced by a parking...
It’s worth much much more than its weight in gold being that it’s all electrons
Sounds fabulous. Would love to be able to use this with EZD3, because frankly.... SD3 is wasted on me. Like an SSL console, or a UV8, I dont do enough to enough depth to justify it. Maybe one day. But the drums sound bloody fabulous.
Awww... wait. Don't you think there will be an 80s EZX like the EBX one? Hmmm....
same here
@@eDrumsInANutshell I dunno Manuel. Hope so. EZD3 is still in its early days yet and while I have that, I am barely scratching the surface of what that platform is capable of. SD2, I had, but hardly use. Brilliant as it is, as a non technical writer and producer, I just find the ezd family more intuitive which I guess is exactly what it was designed to be. 😁
@@stevem-h3562 Yeaheee, I used EZD2 with Plogue Bidule for the MIDI remapping.
And then I wanted it more comfortable and the velocity curves and Positional Sensing on the snare. And I grabbed SD3. With EZDrummer3 I think I hadn't bought SD3. You got the remapping and the velocities and Pos Sense, too? Awesome.
@@eDrumsInANutshell not yet. But you’ve given me something to think about…
Considering this, but hoping it doesn't sound stuck in the 80's.
they should have hired dave weckl to play the beats.
This pack has wonderful snares. Big and fat like me
I feel bad they wasted all that time doing the immons. Not that someone out there wont like it but from a practical perspective theres like so many cooler electronic drum sounds that are free out there. I love that they did this but damn really simmons kits? lol
Can’t describe how much I loathe that 80s gated reverb sound. Fantastically wet and brittle at the same time. Arrrrgh.
yeah nice & cool but the price is ridiculous , seriously guys for 500 bucks we could buy an entire drum set.
Lol one more device to isolate people from each other... in the old days we had to go find a real drummer and to do that you had to play good, so it forced you to get better fast...
So... in short.. if you want to sound like the records of the 80`s .then this is the library for you ! .. i mean c`mon , how many records do you hear on the radio that use these kinda sounds anymore ?.. that Genesis / Phil Collins gated drum sound (that everyone keeps on harping on about 40 years later ? )... absolutely NONE is your answer my friends .. things have moved on since then . maybe if this was being produced like 40 years ago it would be relevant , but not now , i get it that people will simply LOVE this , but they won`t have any success whatsoever using it , it`s old hat , it`s time has been and gone , like 40 years ago , move on !... someone famous once said "Nostalgia is a thing of the past" ..never more has this been more truer..
Kate Bush???
OMG
it sound like crap..but this video will made you belive that they sound better
WOKE
