Much better overall, it has a sense of power now when it kicks in. You upped some of the other levels in this one too, right? Most of all, the bass. My guess is that the difference will be a larger than life kit at a less than Steven Slate+Drumagog pricetag.I'll be re-doing the Truck Commercial track in my profile. I'll do my best to match up the three custom velocity layers so that the layers are honest to the performance. Next I'll layer the 'slightly different' hits underneath the kit as originally performed. Tonight I'm going create additional tracks for toms, kick and snare, then I'll mic my kit a little differently before recording a light, medium and hard hit on each track.

Drums I assume are no different, but because the performance is so often impossible to duplicate I think slate's drums, in combination with drumagog or soundreplacer or manual editing, are an efficient way to thicken drum tracks by layering, given that the original performance is left intact. I've listened to the demo's Slate has on his website, the drum solo kits by themselves sound like sequenced samples, not exactly what I'm going for in most musical contexts.Įveryone knows that any instrument, when overdubbed, sounds fuller and more complex than if single tracked. So we're left to assume that a.) the real drums sound like crap b.) The real drums sound ok but they are improved by laying Slate's kit on top. I'm especially confused to see many experienced engineers with quality tracking space using this sample library and telling everyone it changes the sound possible in their studio.Īll that said, I think most users also describe using the Slate drums on top of REAL recorded drums. It's not that the samples are inferior to my live kit, its just that they're samples and I don't see the point in loading samples when the kit sounds good to begin with. I have a modest kit at my house and I still prefer the recorded sounds I get to the sampled drums I've heard on Slate's kit.

BUT I also don't understand why everyone is going around claiming they are the cure all solution for professional sounding drums.

I don't think that they suck, I think they sound like well recorded drum samples.
