(also Metal and Hiphop presets) I don't know how they got the same drum samples to sound so trashy, but I'll be digging through the parameters to find out, heh. There are also some matching MIDIPaks of grooves available for purchase.
Yes, thanks Mojo!

BTW, have you also downloaded the Woofer Wonderland - FreePak?

It's now one of my favourite kick drums in Addictive Drums. It really means business! ;) :lol:

It's an essential (and free) download, imo; I use it with the low-tuned Sonor Designer Snare to really bring the thunder.

While you're there, check out the new and insanely cool ReelMachines ADPak, especially if you ever wished for a LinnDrum you could play.

I beta tested for AD and I really liked it. But since I have gone to 64bit, it is just a deal breaker for me that they haven't released a 64bit version. And from the looks of it, are not going to release one anytime soon - if at all.

Too bad, it is a great plugin.

Kayle,

I'm running AD in Sonar 64 bit with JBridge and it is very very stable.

I don't know if JBridge works in Logic, but I don't find any compromise in performance with this configuration.

thanks Chuck -

It doesn't look like Jbridge works on Mac/Logic. Logic has a bridge plug of it's own, and I hear it works pretty well. But I think there are enough options to stay in 64 bit.

If you already have AD, great (I really like the program and think it sounds great -especially the brushes). But I don't think it makes a lot of sense, for me at least, to invest in it today.

Thanks.

For those in UK, DV247 (Digital Village) are doing AD for half price until end of June.

AD super program. I don't use the grooves but the sounds are great. The jazz upgrade sounds interesting. My version lacks any brushes.
