Iv'e been trying to find some easy to use drum software for realistic drum sounds. I played around with Fruity Loops but that seems to be a tool for electronic music so I downloaded the trial version of leafDrums. The loop builder is alot better in my opion than FL but the drum sounds are pretty bad. Long story short: Can someone tell me where I can download good real/realistic samples of drum kit?

those bastards!!!

ive used some free loops from them and they were awesome but they had some dude talking in the back ground those BASTARDS!! if i bought some it think those would be them though
 
Mick Fleetwood

I am not a big Fleetwood Mac fan or anything, but the drum loops disk that Mick Fleetwood put out is worth a listen. I bought it and have used it many times. Nice realistic sounding rock drumming..
 
thank you

I'm playing around with the loops from e-drummer and it works ok
to paste and loop them in CoolEdit, although not all the fills really match up. And I don't mean putting a jazz fill into a slow rock beat, just chosing between the fills within the packages, they also have extra space at the beginning and end of each loop that I manually cut off.
Drums on demand sounds pretty good I think I'll check that out if I can't find anything descent for free.

Thanks Again

Hey square1,
You don't have to stick on the FL-samples. Just load your own drumkits in FL and you've got a very flexible drumsampler. This way I can create some very good and realistic drums in FL!
