I've had EZdrummer for a while and just picked up the Indie Folk pack and got everything interfaced with my electronic kit. I can map the drums on my kits brain for the notes that I want for triggering the proper places in EZdrummer (which EZ doesn't allow you to change), so we're all good in that regard. What is different about Superior? Just a ton more samples? Are the samples good? You guys think it's worth an $80 upgrade?

Yeah...probably...I still use The Classic and the Indie kit a lot...but the SD kits are just deeper, more ability to change room sound, etc. You can also mix and match kits which is awesome.

I'm not sure, but I think EZ Drummer is sampled in 16 bit, Superior is 24 bit. Plus it was sampled with more mics and has more grooves. Overall, it is superior  . I'm not at home right now to check, maybe someone else can verify? |

I would assume in terms of using it with an Ekit...the more mics and more LAYERS of samples comes into play. Likely better/flexible handling of hat and cymbal commands for various eKits? I'm basing that on BFD2...but, I'm pretty sure some of the BFD kits (at least the third parties had 128 sample layers...even tapping on a keyboard, it was easy to tell the 32 from the 64 layers of the same kits--I couldn't tell a difference 64 to 128...but, I would hope with a good eKit (and you know actually being a drummer, which I'm not) would be able to tell that.
EZDrummer, IME, was always about quick demos and the built in grooves. Completely different use case than hooking up an eKit. I mean you CAN--in the way you COULD use a midi sequencer to "play" a drum machine in the day--but, a sampler or drum module would make EVERYTHING you needed to do easier.
If you're serious about an eKit...I'd get some software designed for that. If you're just fucking around with it....all bets are off.

SD really comes to life when you bounce to audio with all the bleed on. It's just like a live recorded kit because it is a live recorded kit. Then it's totally up to us to screw it up in the mix  |
