I also like the fact that they have been listening to us as far as feature requests go. I also like the fact that the plug-ins available inside SD3 are quite good and I have gotten good drum mixes out of them. Mind you, I was halfway out the door when EZD2 was released (I was already starting to use other drum libraries because they sounded like music)… I was so hooked on the Edit Play Styles feature that I bought it right away. I just had to listen to some of the audio examples to hear music in the drums, rather than bombastic noise (one thing I criticized BFD’s libraries on). He also gave me lots of mixing tips to which I use and share this day.īased on those drum libraries, my switch to SD3 was a no-brainer. In time, we were speaking on a regular basis and I helped him put together the back-end of his web site at the time and in return, got more drum libraries from him (Joe Barresi and Jim Scott). That’s actually how I met Rail (the Van Halen mixer guy)… aside from mixing great bands, he had a “whacky” idea of creating drum libraries of famous engineers, and when I discovered that the first library to come out was Andy Johns, I found myself getting it and raved about it on the forums which caught Rail’s attention. I was a long-time BFD user and beta-tester (and was using all sorts of software and hardware prior – never really heard of Toontrack at the time).
I actually had to be dragged over to a Mac kicking and screaming over 30+ years ago, when I suddenly found myself employed by Apple (story in itself).
