Getgood Drums is the brainchild of producer/engineer/guitar virtuoso/former-Periphery bassist Adam ‘Nolly’ Getgood. Perhaps a little ‘heavy centric’ for some
It’s the go-to drum triggering software for a reason, and incredibly hard to fault. If the core library isn’t enough for you, there’s currently 19 SDX add-on packs, plus a further 56 SD3-compatible EZX packs covering pretty much every drum sound you can think of, from subtle brushed jazz to aggressive, modern metal. It has an extensive core library totalling 230 gigabytes of samples, built-in EQ, dynamic and other effects (35 in total) in the mixer and detailed handling of e-drum dynamics and mapping.Īs well as this, there’s the built-in Tracker section which offers drum replacement/augmentation for your acoustic drum tracks, itself a viable plugin in its own right. Superior Drummer set the blueprint for the bucket list drums/big-name producer/world-class studio formula, and SD3 is a complete workstation for your triggering needs. Okay, it isn’t the most affordable option on the market, but it might just be the most flexible, easiest to use and ultimately the best sounding! No matter if you are looking for natural jazz kits or hell-raising metal sounds, you’ll find it in SD3 - just make sure you have the hard drive space to install it all.Īrguably the leader of the multi-sampled drum kit world, Superior Drummer 3 has been around since 2017, but its history goes back 20 years beginning with Toontrack’s Drum Kit From Hell. If you are going to have only one drum VST installed on your laptop, then we highly recommend that it’s Toontrack’s Superior Drummer 3. Prepare to start loading up your shopping carts as we take a look at the best drum VSTs available.
The best part is that software instruments aimed at capturing the sound of acoustic drums in a pristine studio environment are also incredibly affordable. In other words, where recording great drum performances was once limited to those with access to a great-sounding kit, a properly treated room, and the mics and ears to capture it, it’s now possible to bring all of those components to the comfort of your spare room and, most importantly, play them for yourself from your electronic kit. Second, electronic drumset response and realism is such that – even when we’re not using our kit’s native sounds – we can fire out detailed MIDI messages to a computer (usually via an onboard audio/MIDI interface to make things even easier) which then plays the aforementioned sounds with nearly no latency. First, our computers are now more than well-equipped to host gigabytes of sound libraries, and what’s more, these samples can temporarily be loaded into our Mac or PC’s RAM for lightning-fast playback.
