I need some good sounds for my software sequencer, mostly drum sounds but others would be nice too. I've heard battery is good but unfortunatly not OSX compatible yet. I'm new to music software so any help would be great. I'm currently using DP4 on an iMac G4 running the latest version of OSX jag. Also could you explain in detail what a sampler does and what its used for. Thanks.

Well, it's not specifically drum software alone, but I generally use Reason and a shelf-load of REX and ReFill CDs for putting together my beats. I like Dr.REX for dropping ready-made REX files into and Re:Drum for creating my own from scratch.
I also use Phatmatik Pro for rearranging loops from other sources. And programs like Peak, Live and soft synths like VirSyn TERA all have drum samples in there, which I use from time to time. Doggiebox is the only pure drums app I have. I suppose I use Reason the most, but if I had the EXS24 in Logic, I'd probably be using that. Battery is very cool but it's not in OS X yet (the LM-7 drum machine that comes with Cubase SX is a very basic take on the same concept). So my advice, on balance, would be if you want easy drum-programming with access to thousands of samples, get Reason and a few ReFill CDs. Hope that helps. |
