    Should I get EZdrummer or Addictive Drums?

    Sign in to disable this ad
    Now, I do NOT have enough money as of now for either one of these, but I want to know what I should save up for. EZdrummer being cheaper, I would rather save up to this since I have a ton of other stuff to save up to as well. Is AD a ton better than EZD? If EZD is sufficient, I will get that, but if AD is just that much better, I will get that.

    Please vote and tell me which you prefer. Thanks.
    And if you have any other possible suggestions of programs such as these in the $150-$200 range, please tell me. Thanks, guys!

    I think this ends after this month. My opinion of course, but I think these sound A LOT better than ez drummer.

    Ask me anything about cubase and I probably know the answer. Except what is "best." Asking for the best is like asking who is the prettiest woman on the planet.

    Why do you say that? Not disputing, just curious.

    It has to do with the amount of processing they did on the samples. It's not that either sounds bad.

    Holy crow!!! I can afford that right now! I won't even need to save up for it or anything.
    Well, now it doesn't matter. I'm getting Addictive Drums. Thank you SO much for posting that!

    Yeah, ezd takes a slightly different approach. I also have the SSD platinum. After switching over to Win7, I never loaded them up again. Took too long to learn how to use them. lol.... I'm lazy, that's why ezd is so good for me.

    Well, I just want something that works, and from my research, AD works fine. Plus, I'm on a very tight budget right now, so this sale was a miracle for me. I am very happy about this. Thank you, Guitargodgt. You literally just saved me $50 to $100 here.

    Ugh, I know all about the pangs of a tight budget. Good luck and let us hear your music in the MP3 clinic when you're ready.

    I would have loved to snag that deal myself this month but for some reason I just can't bring myself to get another drum library. I own superior and all the SDX libraries except the custom and vintage one (well, and evil drums but that's 3rd party).

    I also own steven slate platinum and a few EZX expansions as well.

    The demos of addictive are very impressive to my ears. The demo was a bit crap but it was cool to check it out.

    So I did end up snagging AD ($99 is a steal for any library), and I just picked up BFD Eco since it's currently on sale for $29! Still own and use Steven Slate Plat as well.

    I got to say, I still think Toontrack's Superior Drummer is the winner here.
