Hi,
I need your help about my need for an acoustic drum kit samples (I mean registered in studio). I know there is EZDrummer2 (tried a couple weeks ago: really impressive) but I need something "ready to go" then the best and fast solution (for me) is still buying a collections of samples... between hundreds sold as "real". So my question is : which one is good enough to spend some money? Which one can you suggest to me? Of course I need it for Lo-Fi and Chill out and so on...
TIA

Oma is a word used as grandmother in German and Omar Hakim is just one of the baddest motherfuckers ever on drums, so I can see how you could have been confused. Now you know.

 

@superliquidsunshine
Thanks, teacher. Anyway I read "Omar" not "Oma" and I need to learn the english language not the german.

Sorry, just my poor attempt at trying to be funny by playing a word game by mixing two different languages together and probably confusing everyone but myself...and I lost the spelling rating, it was part of it too.

air music tech xpand!2 has some cool beats, transfuser has retro beatmaking tools built in

 

@superliquidsunshine

It's ok mate...

 

Thanks Bro, I needed that.

 

Erik Jackson Sunday Breaks Vol 1-2 (studio recorded)
J-Zone Lunch Breaks (raw and dirty)

may fit your needs.. these are also available @ known locations or via pm so you can try before you buy..

another approach would be to use NI vintage drummer 60s or 70s edition or EZDrummer
and the contained midi files and tweak & quantise from there to your needs.. if know how to use compression you can squeeze some serious loops out of these.. i think i have round about 70k Midi Grooves for EZDrummer (also working with NI Drummers) if interested..

"Erik Jackson Sunday Break" sounds really interesting and "J-zone Lunch Breaks" is perfect for Lo-fi. Thanks.

 

I quite love Big Mono. You can make great real-sounding beats with it. I like Addictive Drums 1 and 2, also, when you turn all of the XLN FX off.

Shame I can't record my own drums. I know a good drummer, we have a good sounding room, I have the equipment, but still in the process of collecting good mikes for that! It's much easier to record choirs or even small orchestras.

 

Me too ... this one sucks, can't even reach a High C
