The blue oyster sounds just perfect

[@ChrisBakerDrummer]

The drumming on that opening tune was FANTASTIC, Nick! What a great touch you have. Thanks for the awesome review of the product, too. Been using Toontrack products with e-drums since 2009. They are the absolute best

[@joc4217]

Agreed! What is the SDX pack / kit Nick is using on this opening track??

[@shadowman1403]

I am a guitar player/producer and this is an awesome demo! This guy Nick does a fantastic job on this demo video! Really top notch stuff. Got my musical juices flowing!

[@samajunioroficial]

Such an amazing review! He really wants us to hear and feel what the product is capable of. You guys at Sweetwater are doing great. Keep it up!

[@levipeto]

Nick, fantastic presentation!

[@DerrickBigWalker]

This was the best video of the product I've seen so far! I loved it you're playing is wonderful and you explain things so well even though I'm not a drummer I was totally immersed! One complaint, and that is I bought Superior Drummer 3 from the Sweetwater online shop and this product was not in the catalog! If it was I would've bought it then! As it is I will have to wait a couple pay cycles. Kind of a big miss if you're doing such a great video of a product and you don't have it for sale on your website! Oh well, if I would've bought it then I probably wouldn't have seen this great video that you made.

[@Drum2]

My favourite Superior Drummer 3 SDX by a long way.

[@frazerxp1]

your demos are always awesome....great drumming.....

[@sweetwater]

[@chrisdavies73]

That's clever! I'm seriously tempted to invest in this.

[@natehine8541]

They all sound great .. praying I win a sweepstakes .. lol

[@flaviopresutti]

This demonstrations are amazing ! Thanks! I bought the PreSonus USB 96 25th Anniversary Edition, I'm waiting for the recorder to arrive to start creating new music !

[@TheVenusProjectInfo]

Hey Nick you should do a rock/fusion/groove Midi Pack with Toontrack!!!

[@Pauluz_The_Web_Gnome]

That Sick Speedy Chop @31:34 Can you explain what you are doing there? Thanks!

[@MikeLuke]

Well done, guys. ;)

[@thomasfokas]

I want this as well as the Bob Rock SDX

[@darrinwilson8484]

youve gotta try "Rooms of Hansa", unbelievable Edrum playability and sound!

😎👍🥁🎹🎼 NICK!!!

[@alexpot1968]

Great review, I wonder where I can get those great drum less track to play along.

[@adrienaubin6267]

Great video ! Would you advise to have the drum libraries on an SSD external drive ?

[@vazer71]

How do you connect your e drums to the computer? are you using an interface or usb direct from the module? how doy reduce the latency and how much lattency do you really have? thanks

[@brushman20]

Once in a while I think about selling my acoustic drums and getting some electric and videos like this make me think about it even more. My wife has said it wudnt look as cool, but man, with all the possibilities...Shud I??

[@fVNzO]

Don't do it. You'll seriously regret skimping on feel if you have the option to play acoustic. Buy yourself a warehouse of different drums for the same price instead.

[@ChrisBakerDrummer]

If you want to record at home, absolutely you should grab a good electronic kit (Roland) and some of these Toontrack products. You'll never come close to getting these sounds by recording acoustic drums in your home. But if you're mainly wanting to gig live... I would probably just stick w/ acoustic drums

[@brushman20]

@@ChrisBakerDrummer Thanks Chris, appreciate the advice! Cheers!

[@dugjay]

NO. Never lol. You'll regret selling the acoustics. I have the Roland TD-50KV and love them but there is that lack of feel that you get from playing an acoustic kit. They just can't mimic the feel no matter how they try!

[@davemccall9594]

30:22 Nick's out here writing film/TV score-worthy tracks for product demos like it's no big deal.

[@JorgeParagliding]

Thanks for the video. I have a question, did you have to switch to the Keyboard on SD3 or are you able to have more than one MIDI device feeding into SD3 at the same time? I have been thinking of adding an Octapad to my TD-50 kit and I was wondering if it can trigger SD3 at the same time as my TD-50, for example to trigger the cowbell or the Gong...

[@dankenton]

You can indeed have multiple devices triggering SD3 sounds however, you can only have 1 MIDI map active at once so you would most likely use the TD50 map for your kit then just manually setup your Octapad to trigger the specific notes in SD3 you wanted to use - cowbell, gong, etc. You'll manage the MIDI traffic in your DAW/recording software by setting the MIDI input to ALL DEVICES.

[@JorgeParagliding]

@@dankenton thanks!

[@youowemeapony]

You can also plug a 5 pin midi cable out of the octapad into the TD-50 👍

[@ChristopherSmithNYC]

DW5000. Always there. Everywhere. Im sure they'd all have one then if they could have. Like a Black Beauty at this point. Legendary gear.

[@imaguandaloops]

I thought you were only supposed to use nylon tipped stix on mesh heads?

[@ofabulosomundo]

Uaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuu... I need it.. kkkkkkkkkkkk.. Congrats man!!!!

[@bounce_hit3534]

@sweetwater that last tune HAD to be inspired by Tigran Hamasyan. Gotta get Nick to confirm or deny :)

[@martinleicht5911]

YAY !! 💥 🎃 👍

[@ignaciosanchezsanabria1471]

Will a TD-17KVX deliver as much clarity and precision in the snare drum when triggering SDX? I'm seriously considering switching to e-drums to trigger SDX, just like in this video, but a TD-50 is out of my budget

[@sweetwater]

Hi Ignacio, great question! The TD-17KVX's snare won't have the same level of precision, since it doesn't capture the same amount of performance data as the Digital Snare, but it should still work great for triggering samples in Superior Drummer.

as usual sounds like "LEGACY OF ICE CREME TRUCK" The fills are just downright bizarre.

[@barrycomer3688]

Great video - I hate the term “just like a REAL drum”. Electronic drums are an instrument upon themselves.

[@tiktocdrummer]

Doesn’t the Roland brain provide most of those sounds to start with? Seems counter productive to spend thousands on a Roland electric kit and then add the toon tracks with it, seems like your bringing sand to the beach. The demo would be better using a entry level acoustic drum kit and just trigger them.

[@youowemeapony]

There is a massive difference between the sounds in the TD50 and Superior Drummer. SD3 is using real audio samples and the expressiveness is huge. Roland sounds are cheap and cheesy in comparison
