Ableton Forum

I've been contemplating Reason. Not sure the deal with rex files though. native instruments is always good but cant really get used to the interface of all their software. just looking for any other good recommendations

check out Poise by One small clue. its priced nice I use it with almost all my drums...

Spectrasonics Stylus RMX

BFD Eco is now $29.00. Why don't try out the deme and but it if you like it?

What kind of drums do you need?

ableton's own Drum Racks is by far the best drum-kit building system I've ever come across. but if you mean drums like one of these fancy giant live-drum-kit sample libraries, that's a different question. probably NI stuff in Kontakt, like what I've heard there, but I haven't heard most of the others (BFD, toontrack, etc)

If you want classic, acustic , boring samples battery from N.I.

If you want synthetic, cool , new , flexible drums go with microtonic .

Microtonic and FXpansion Geist.

Sorted.

oh ya, for synthetic drums absolutely MICROTONIC, no other drum-synth comes close.....

How about Punch?

Yea acoustic drums is what im looking for kind of. Just hip hop ish sounds but synthetic is also appealing. nothing can match drum machine sounds for sure. microtonic is NI?

+1000 on Microtonic ( http://soniccharge.com/microtonic ) it's simply an awesome drum machine for electronic drums. Incredibly versatile and easy on the CPU.

It seems a very interesting package, but it was extremely goofy naming it µTonic and having to explain that it is pronounced Microtonic. """""µ""""" ?????? That damned thing isn't even on my keyboard!!!! Marketing idiots.........

But yes, it looks good and is cheap.

you do know that Live is very capable beatwise ..
