      HEY BUNN!!! Yes, I know exactly what you mean! I actually ended up going this route with Superior Drummer just to streamline my workflow, but when I got in and really started dialing I was stoked that you can get really good sounding kits that sound like ACTUAL drum kits and not just machine gun samples all the time lol.

      The worst part of modern metal is the homogeneity of the sounds. It's one giant block of sound. The entire kit sounds the same. All the guitars blend into each other. So muddy. I really, really appreciate it when people break that mold.

    Finally upgrade to SD3... and to start with it and get a feeling I was watching your video, reacreating step by step everything and then I noticed on 13:35 that I don't get any signals on X-Snare and pretty much can't find a way to get it... already searched the internet for a solution... so yeah... I don't know why a second (or even more added snares to the stack) are just not making any sound or are not triggered by the midi samples at least.
    Any ideas?

    I’ve tried so many drum libraries and nothing compares to Superior.
    I can’t unhear the “machine gunning” on fast playing on other libraries. Even GGD and Mixwave has it

    • @TaylorDanley
      @TaylorDanley  6 місяців тому

      I agree. Don't get me wrong there are a lot of good ones out there, but when you look at the whole... there's just not anything that has all the features and sounds as authentic as SD3 IMO

  • @Zareh_Abrahamian

    I also use SD3 and this very kit with my tweaks, etc. Do you ever feel the need to export certain drum elements into your DAW, say, kick and snare, to further process with other plugins or do you think the included plugins in the SD3 mixer do the job. I ask this, since the mixer is so complicated that it is hard to figure out which channels should one export to get say, the whole of the snare on one audio track in the DAW. In drum mixing videos of other drum plugins you see there is one channel that you can export to a track in your DAW, but this is not that obvious in SD3, especially with this kit.

    • @TaylorDanley
      @TaylorDanley  6 місяців тому +1

      I try to do that as little as possible. TBH, the mixing portion would probably be easier that way if I was doing it from scratch, but typically I just find something that is close to what I'm looking for and tweak slightly so I can avoid mixing outside the plugin.
      I do however route out the kick so I can side chain it to my bass track - that's a whole other topic!

    • @Zareh_Abrahamian
      @Zareh_Abrahamian 6 місяців тому

      @@TaylorDanley Thanks for the reply Taylor. We tend to worry too much regarding our mixes. It is good to see fellow metalheads also trying to keep it simple. I am more into adding parallel comp to the snare and a bit also to the kick. Side chaining is not a priority for my style of metal. Without exporting the individual elements I have to add it to the whole drum bus which affects the cymbals negatively. This way I have to do it parsimoniously.

      I can't speak for the guy, but I know some people tend to have a simple set up going (the ol "top down mixing" thing), but that probably isn't going to change all that much without the rest of the mix present.

      Tone is everything in music. Without it, things just sound generic.
