Drum Monkey VST! Unison Audio Plugins are a JOKE!!!!!

Drum Monkey VST is Unison Audio's way of thinking music production is a one stop joke! This plugin doesn't have a demo version (hmmm I wonder why???), cost $300 (there's actual hardware drum machines that cost less!), and they can't take criticism (they've continuous copyright strike my videos!). The idea of this plugin isn't "unique" nor is it "innovative". There are several alternatives that not only cost less. They offer more flexibility!!! They put thousands of ad dollars shoving their products in peoples face & pay content creators with actual talent to tell a BOLD FACED LIE!
Better alternatives that cost less!

I really wish you posted your videos on unison before I bought one of their products. it wasn’t really worth it but the worst part about it is they won’t stop emailing you. It’s always time is running out this, couple days left on that, there’s a special on this, sale ending soon, what are the types of bullshit.

@SunTai fake? Easy bro.... I never had a fire drum pattern myself i can hear it but i always came up with that boom bap pattern every song.... drum, snare, hat, then started watching South Side, TM88, and all the ATL legends to get that bounce..... so I started using loops but didn't really like the tones of most of them so this is perfect for me... u can load ur own samples and I generate and then I edit to my liking... and it adds shit that i never thought about adding like percs and toms.... so it's 🔥 to me..... better grooves for my tool box now

[@nickgilday8946]

Ave - Said it before and I'll say it again. I really appreciate your transparent approach. I always cringed at this plugin for more reasons than just the price. For me creating the beat myself is like 80% of the fun, so I would never use it - but I love that you are willing to absolutely go in on any product. Ive seen you trash things that Akai does, and as a Maschine user ive seen you trash on them too, but most importantly nothing has ever been a lie. I appreciate that you are one of the few content creators who doesn't get caught wearing rose colored glasses for companies you like, or not allow yourself to give props to companies you typically aren't a fan of too. Keep up the good content sir!

I think it's funny because if they put it for let's say 50 bucks even 30 bucks. With the amount of people that watch their annoying ads they might even make more money. Cherry Audio sells their amazing VST synths for 30 bucks. You can't tell me their company is doing bad financially.

All love and respect to you.

Dudes! AVE is the one saying there's no demo. I pointed out to him CORRECTLY that other companies do that too. I mentioned Spectrasonics because they are the BEST music softaware company, PERIOD.

That's the way it has to be

Bro. I got XO, superior drummer and ez drummer. You can’t tell people that the patterns in there come anywhere close to drum monkey. I Was skeptical of it, but grabbed it. Shit upped my output rate by a lot, for the simple fact of time saving. XO is the best drum aggregator for sure. Superior drummer best for live kits, but this drum monkey shit is by far superior for pattern inspiration. In combination with Xo it’s a killer. Don’t knock it. I wasn’t able to do drill or afrobeat for real but now I got that shit easy. Im a melody man.

it's designed for people who can't create their own content...perfect for you eh

[@milesholt3655]

@@hal2098 I hate programming drums, but enjoy a good drum pattern same as anyone else, and I of course am sure to make shit my own. Same reason I got XO. You can be snobby all you want lol, not like I know who you are, my boy. But to call this a review is false if he didn't review it. Cockride all you want, playa.

[@SupaPoopaScoopa]

I'm subscribing because you are brave enough to call out the BS and not slurp butt. I must respect those who hold the moral fort.

[@christophershaski933]

OMG MAN that dramatization of the unison audio midi pack review just got you a sub man, that shit had me dying

[@FlightLifeFilms]

Been making beats for about 9 months now and almost made a VERY ill advised purchase of this drum monkey bull! Much appreciated King!

[@jesussaddle]

Its good to see you being totally honest and giving Chucki Beats his due (along with Sep/Unison)! You deserve a ton of support and respect for laying it completely on the line. A friend of mine pointed me to a video by Valentina Bilancieri on her mixing approach once, and a few days later I saw her advertise the Unison MIDI Chord Porks. It's no exaggeration that I lost most of my respect for her, since that pack is utter garbage. The web marketing channels that are basically into these kinds of endless repeat funnels are like their own little scary world of zombification. Pay for it and basically its like a zombie has eaten your soul, and continually follows you to take more bites - sucking you away from your musical mission. At least with Monkey Beats Sep is apparently trying to do something a bit different than what's out there. But I reacted like you, because of their web site and sales tactics, and pricing strategies.

Keep doing you bro, and I very much appreciate your honesty on ALL your reviews!🙏🏾✊🏾💚

[@themetronomelab.9457]
