I got this new drum program a few weeks ago that ive been wanting to test out. Cool thing is you can get it free at their website for signing up for a promotion. I got nexflix and the software, so im happy, lol.

Anyway, the program is called Drumsite. Its alot lile PC Drummer, but i think the stock samples are better. To test I threw together about 30 seconds of the into to Firewind's "Breaking the silence: I think I needed to play around with the post production a bit, but it still sounds halfway decent to me. As most of you have seen in the past I usually set my drums up in guitar pro and this time was no different, but instead of recoding guitar pro drums and EQing the crap out of it, I exported them to midi and brought them into drumsite.

Heres the overall rundown

Keys - Guitar Pro
Bass- Guitar Pro
Drums- Guitar Pro - Imported to Drumsite
Guitars- 5 tracks all done with POD Farm. I used an orange model with a tubescreamer and a couple different Marshall models. I panned those Center and various degrees of left and right.

Anyway, what do y'al think about the Drums here?
 
Re: Testing new drum software

the drum sound is alright but the beat pattern is kind of odd. the guitar sound is cool.

Im definitley not an expert when it comes to drums, I just know what I like to hear, but it does sound Ok to me. After the guitar fades out the hi-hat sounds like it should hit on both the kick and the snare. I dunno, this is the original song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68kRO4ql_LM

maybe the drummer just has an odd style. I did split the drums into 3 tracks and had to sync them back up, but i could really tell when they were not right.
