    Musicians!!!
    What are your favorite samples/drum engines for authentic rock drums, in particular stoner rock? And why?
    I am not so happy with Addictive Drums, BFD and the N.I. Kits.. Would be grateful for any other suggestions..

    What is it you don't like about these?
    Personally I use Superior Drummer and moved from Slate a few years back.

    With the N.I. 70s Kit, I am not so happy with the sounds, Addictive Drums have nice sounds, plenty of choice, but I don't get along
    with the dynamics when combining them with real bass and guitars. I might invest more time to fiddle around with superior drummer, never tried slate drums. I don't like the guy in his ads ;-)
    Thank You for your opinion!

    Thanks, will have a look! I don't need much processing, I would prefer to get good sound, which I will further process in my DAW like I do it when recording a drum kit.

    To my ears, BFD. But you will need to process them.

    GetGoodDrums are great! Analogue Drums, especially the Plastique kit, is very nice. Platinum Samples - Andy Johns Classic Drums and Ocean Way are killer. Evil Joe Barresi you should check out, as well as Chocolate Audio The Black Album Drums. It can sound amazing in certain situations. Hope this helps.

    Drumdrops are great if you're looking for a vintage vibe straight out of the box. The kits come as Kontakt or BFD libraries.
