I have been using EZdrummer for a long time. I got Superior Drummer a few months back. Both are about as good as it gets. They are not easy to learn how to use.

Everyone goes about dealing with drums in a different way. I think how you may use the software depends on your perspective and skill sets with drums in general.

Unless you are happy with a generic drum track you will find using EZdrummer not so easy...lol

If you are happy with a basic generic drum track Real Drums works as well as anything. There are some very tedious methods of small amounts of control of Real Drums that can be done in a DAW. You have a very large amount of control over the drum tracks with EZdrummer "if you know how".

For me, I could never get what I was looking for on the Hi Hat with any drum software so I got a good quality Hi Hat and play that live. I don't have the space for a full kit plus the noise is unacceptable.

There is a learning curve for the software. If you are a skilled drummer you may not like the software drums to begin with. If you are not a skilled drummer you will most likely have a difficult time creating a really good drum track with software.

Many skilled drummers in todays world use both acoustic live drums and midi triggers on their kits to trigger things like EZdrummer.

I guess everyone would like to have software that they could klick on a few things and have world class music come out the other end....good luck with that...lol
