Members Acid Hazard Posted April 2, 2011 Members Share Posted April 2, 2011 I KNEW Battery was going to be number one. But to put all those sample based machines over the D16 plugs and uTonic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MuzikB Posted April 2, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 2, 2011 My vote went in for the D16 TR emulations which came in 10th. The spreadsheet look of Battery is the main reason why I DIDN'T like it. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking for a software based more live drummer solution myself. I use STylus but I'n not a big fan of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gregwar Posted April 2, 2011 Members Share Posted April 2, 2011 wow i'm surprised battery was number one. i've had it for years but it would never play nice with my mpd 32. maybe i should revisit the manual or something. plus ez drummer and all that > ? generally i use esx24 and/or ultrabeat in logic and i'll use one shot samples in the arrange window. driven drum machines, gold baby, and countless other kits are usually quicker and easier to use as drag & drop + copy & paste than loading them into a sampler plug-in like battery and using midi. my 2c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members liliththekitten Posted April 4, 2011 Members Share Posted April 4, 2011 no AudioDamage... this list is irrelevant. jk but they should be on this list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stikygum Posted April 5, 2011 Members Share Posted April 5, 2011 Nerve looks really fun to use, but the price... and I'm not into a lot of digital drum synthesis so much. Been looking at FXp Geist and the new Spark by Arturia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members trainset Posted April 5, 2011 Members Share Posted April 5, 2011 I love Izotopes iDrum along with the Goldbaby expansion...so cheap, so simple, so perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members realtrance Posted April 7, 2011 Members Share Posted April 7, 2011 Battery is like Reaktor for drums, with all of the control and sample manipulation options available; it really is amazing, and the level of detail it provides someone really wanting to sink their teeth in at a very granular level is phenomenal.

Members Gribs Posted April 7, 2011 Members Share Posted April 7, 2011 no AudioDamage... this list is irrelevant.jk but they should be on this list. No LinPlug RMV or NI Maschine (okay Maschine is not sold as a plugin independent of the controller) either. I think that RMV is pretty darned good really. It has some very nice features like automatic velocity mapping for a set of samples on a pad using a choice of different curves. Audio Damage Tattoo deserves a mention for its ease of use, sound, and external control. Axon is cool but too niche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MuzikB Posted April 7, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 7, 2011 iDrum and Audio Damage were on the vote list but didn't make the cut fellas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mididoc Posted April 8, 2011 Members Share Posted April 8, 2011 Maybe I missed it but I didn't see any mention of MOTU's BPM 1.5 either. On paper it looks stunning with 19GB of sounds including the samples from most every important hardware drum machine ever released - all recorded at 24/96! Any thoughts on this from anybody? Thinking of pulling the trigger - regardless of how good the UI is, just to have that sample library available! http://www.motu.com/products/software/BPM Doc EDIT:OOPS - didn't look close enough but surprised it came in so far back. Any idea why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MuzikB Posted April 8, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 8, 2011 DocEDIT:OOPS - didn't look close enough but surprised it came in so far back. Any idea why? MOTU BPM didn't get that many votes. Musicradar didn't pick these, the people voted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MuzikB Posted April 9, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 9, 2011 bah ppl have no taste, Tattoo owns I didn't think so but I also don't think too highly of Battery or Stylus RMX over D16 TR Emulations and Geist. I like these voting lists because it shows what the masses like and I don't like being all in-line with the masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
