Outstanding in every way!!!

My very humble regards,

Thanks for the really nice review, Deej.

I almost always treat the RealDrums the same way. Usually, I leave the reverb that is added by BIAB. I max out the volume. Then export the track. Import into Studio One Professional and add the prest S1 Drumgroup. It includes an EQ and a Multiband Compressor. Occasionally, I will bump up the high end of the EQ to add a bit more snap to the snare, but if that caused the hi-hats or cymbals to be "too crispy" I don't do that... And that is about it (except for setting the volume - which some folks tend to make too soft).
