      Agreed! That was my first impression as well. The Mixwave kits are more ''ready to go'' load up and start writing. Toontrack, being more raw, allows you to mix your drums the way you want and polish them afterwards.

    I like the Death and Darkness and Metal Machinery SDX's, and have a couple of presets I've made for my mixes. The Gojira kit is crazy good straight away but not as easy to tweak. Not that fussed on the Luke Holland one to be honest. I still think Superior sounds the most like real drums in a mix so it gets my vote.

    To me Death and Darkness SDX still sounds the best (and who can deny Mark Lewis!) and I also use the Modern Metal EZX a lot. Oh, and both Duality EZX's are great too! But I have to admit, that Gojira kit (although a bit dry?) sounds great.

    sick labraries! I just switched from ggd and slate drums to ez drummer 3 with the progressive setup, and as a drummer who plays these plugins on an edrum set I have to say that ez dr3 fits the best for me. the most natural sounding plugin. I am super picky at the cymbals and toontrack just knows how to build cymbals that doesnt sound the same with each hit.

    Awesome video! I find that Superior Drummer snare hits (centre hit articulation) don't really have enough pop to them. When I record drums the drummer is hitting closer to a rimshot than a centre hit. I love SD3 but I'm constantly searching for that cracking snare sound that other companies like Mixwave and GGD have used. Do you have a similar experience?

  • @ricklang_drummer
    @ricklang_drummer Год назад +3

    The problem with Mixwave and GGD is that they all suffer from the "Steven Slate syndrome". Especially GGD, which appear to be the main contender Mixwave is up against.
    As a fusion drummer recording on a high-end e-kit for ourselves and clients via Superior Drummer 3, Addictive Drums, BFD3 and a plethora of other libraries, I can of course appreciate GGD/Mixwave, since I happen to have them on one of my SSD:s. But even the so called "raw" versions (I am looking at you, Invasion) have an inherent velocity curve of a clipped "S". Hitting my snare at a velocity of 1%/ppp still triggers a sound equivalent of a compressed mezzoforte at best. Apparently that is not the case with the libraries I have tried from Mixwave (Royster and Pridgen) when used "raw". Still, that is nothing compared to SD3 where I actually get the output of ppp when I want it.
    Nowadays I/we only use the YRC kit in Death SDX for commercial releases. It works for everything except jazz/bop, in which case I would go with Decades or Hansa. Some years ago we also released stuff where I played Metal Machinery (yes, the SDX), but listening to MM today it is nothing compared to Death, or any of the SDX:s post 2017. Worth noting is also that Metal Machinery has been poorly sampled since on the Tama Starclassic Bubinga 14x16 floor tom there is a very clear blow noise at higher velocities. You can hear a similar noise from the 9x10 tom as well, but not as evident.
    Truth is, most people don't really know what real drums sound like, and maybe never will. But end results is still what matters, and even though SD3 are not "real drums" (even if they are), they are still my first choice for basically everything. Including progmetal.

    Hello good sir! …I’ve been using Cubase forever, and, am so glad I came across your channel!! Been busy he watching and liking for weeks, haha!
    I have superior drummer, but, just picked up this Mixeave Gojira after this video.
    By chance, what do you do for your drum programming? I still like pre made midi files. …what is your approach for handling midi.. …I’m not at a stage where individually programming is appealing.
    Any advice regarding your approach to midi drums with Mixeave would be amazing.
    (I bought a couple of midi packs from toon track too)

  • @gsharman1989
    @gsharman1989 2 года назад +6

    For me the only thing that lets mixwave down is the cymbal decay, the ring and sustain lacks a little realism when compared to SD3 as well as cymbal variety but combining the two would make for a hell of a drum sound

    These sounds fantastic, but the lack of dynamics and the lack of some kind of humanity push me away unfortunately. I guess with a bit of midi programming could make them more natural sounding. Even the raw kits sounds machine gun, mostly the snare. Frankly, I'm a bit tired of all the modern metal albums with obvious machine gun drums that sounds all the same alongside different productions/bands nowadays. Don't get me wrong, they sound awesome and your insights over here are really we-inspiring man!

      That’s my complaint also. I’ve got the Holland kit and a good majority of the Getgood releases. If the Holland kit had more dynamic range it would have replaced all of the GGD stuff I use. Even with detailed midi programming, there’s still a gap in dynamic range.
