I finally picked this ADpak up a couple of weeks ago, I do like it and have used it already in a library piece that had a BRMC and BK's vibe. I think you would dig it and it would compliment your style well. It has a lot of factory presets and I found many of them to be useful, which is not always the case.

Thanks Marc. Just downloaded it and got the jazz brushes as my bonus pak. Don't know if you know but it's 2 for 1 right now.

Cheers!

I dig Retro, but I often wind up using a kick from a different pack--those Retro kicks are reaaaally floppy. Which works sometimes, but sometimes not. I'm really feeling the Indie pack lately. Huge room, great natural sounds.

Anyway, eo, how is the Brush pack? I've been thinking about it for a really long time, but I always figured it was more aggressive jazz-style brush playing, maybe not suitable for more gentle or subtle playing, which is really all I'd want it for. What do you think?

sweet, you'll dig the brush kit! I was going to forward you this offer yesterday but got sidetracked, glad you got it!

I just emailed support to see if they'd honor the deal since i missed it by a couple of weeks, if they do it will complete the collection for me. I only have buyers remorse for the Metal ADpak, i thought it might be cool for the Mad July project but it's way too Death Metal for me to use

anyways, I think you'll love you new purchase!

Cheers,
Marc

Cheers guys, I haven't had a chance to dig in yet Alpaca but I'll let you know when i do. I'm hoping it will work for sparse singer/songwriter stuff.

I don't use it much, but for certain things, it's essential.(Motown, in particular) It's also useful if you can play like Ringo or Bonham. Or Keith Moon.
