Hello,

I have listened to a number of songs submitted by posters on here a lot done with realdrums and to be honest they don't sound that good, I feel the midi drums would sound more realistic and fit in better with being part of the song.

On the other hands realtracks sound great just like having a real musician play.

Does anyone else share this view?

Many thanks

A lot of people who post stuff miss the mix, imho. The drums are not out front enough and they didn't eq them properly. Just using the PG 10 band you can really bring out the kick or snare, the cymbals, whatever. Now, if you're talking about the fact that some of the RD's don't fit a particular song yes, that happens a lot. The RD's are generic because the players don't know what tune you're going to use them with so they miss a lot of fills, punches etc. That's where midi drums shine, you can program them to do exactly what you want but then the sound... Everything's a tradeoff.
