There's also drag-and-drop support for individual or third-party samples. Over 230GB of raw sounds were captured at Galaxy Studios by the legendary George Massenburg. but I’ll be gutted if there is a hefty saving in a couple of months. Superior Drummer 3 yields endless choices for honing, shaping, and molding drums. Im thinking wait and see if there is a Black Friday cheap deal on EZ2 and then upgrade or see if they do a deal bundling one of the SDXs I really want with SD3. Of the SDXs there seems to be several compelling choices like Legacy of Rock, Decades and rooms of Hansa but I think Death and darkness would probably be my first choice. To be honest the pop punk EZX looks like it would be right up my street as I used to enjoy playing along to that sort of music when I played acoustic drums in the past and I’m a big fan of Green Day and Goldfinger. A large reason why the file size is massive is that they really went the extra mile to record as many different articulations and velocities of drum hits as humanly possible. The larger package doesn’t just mean more libraries.

I’m interested in playing Rock, some metal and punk at first. While EZDrummer 2 gives you a core library of around 3GB, Superior Drummer 3 offers 230GB of drum sounds and libraries. It looks like in previous years toontrack has done Black Friday deals on EZD2 and some SDXs and EDXs but nothing much off SD3 on its own. Looking for the cheapest way to eventually get Superior Drummer 3, getting EZ drummer 2 first and upgrading would spread the expense over time but I don’t want to spend much more going that route than buying SD3 standalone.
