Buggy samples are only a problem with playing/monitoring in real time. Well, I'm not a drummer) I need an instrument to write music, I'm going to record parts exclusively in midi and not play them on a drum set.Oh, I wasn't expecting a non-drummer here. They occur in libraries from literally all manufacturers BUT there are several manufacturers that allow editing their sample pools - which is the solution! I have no problem with a library containing faulty samples (and I know about the enormous work creating a drum library) BUT I (as a user) do have a problem with being unable to edit/eliminate the faulty sh**.Īnd if anyone wants to accuse me of being too demanding: we are talking about THE overall flagship drum sampler here! A flagship with a big flaw (which is: not being able to edit the sample pool!). They will tell you there will be a fix LOL - my request was half a year ago -> nothing has been fixed! - and if they really fixed the mentioned samples I will find a bunch of further ones (if I played with this pack any further).īuggy samples are the bane of VSTi e-drumming with drum samplers. I requested a sample pool editor as they will never ever be able to check billions of samples (the detailed sampling is at the same time their doom: without thorough QC you won't be able to handle it!) but they've completely ignored me.

found around 25 dodgy/faulty samples (crackling, noise) within one(!) 'Fields Of Rock'-SDX hihat articulation - which is ridiculous (also found dodgy Ride and Hihat Pedal Chick samples - so it's not only that particular kit piece and articulation!). Thank you, I'll try to read more about it now.Yeah, because I'm the only man on earth who will ever find them LOL (there are not many software drummers with high demands and good monitor equipment and ears like mine) - e.g.

Super annoying shortcoming is that buggy/faulty samples? Never heard of such problems.
