anyone tried out any new pro drum sample packs, like vegeance or nu-tone.
im thinking of spending some money on one but wanted some feedback first.

i was after summit thats made purposly for drum and bass, just after kiks and snares to be honest not botherd about loops and breaks.

well I haven't tried any myself, but I think with kicks and snares in particular its definately all about the samples you use, they are so noticeable in a dnb tune the initial sample needs to be good otherwise ur tune will sound shite so if you haven't got a few kick / snare samples that you're really happy with (recently i've found a few and use em in a lot of tunes as everything else sounds really amateurish) then Bigup

and get em! (if u can be arsed to spend the money that is mr moneyshot! Tongue

)

i downloaded a couple of samples from a pro pack specifically aim at dnb and the difference was amazing.

thinking about it i could analize them and maybe attempt to make my own?

This one looks pretty good, although I haven't really tried it. I'm not really satisfied with any of the samples I have right now. It gets annoying when you spend a lot of time processing one sample sound just to have it come out sounding like a shiny turd. Can somebody here vouch for one of these packs?

i bought the vengence pack recently, most of the sounds are complete shite but the drums are amazing, really clean and the snares are top notch...repulsive is a good pack, some nice pads and bass in that, david carbone masterclass is good too, some really nice breaks in that. Drummer

I have a copy of the nu-tone one. It is actually pretty good. I don't actually use the loops as such. I tend to nick element of them and make my own. Don't know how much it is to buy, but it was worth the download Wink
