I tend to mainly use RealDrums as I said earlier. There are just so many options. I agree the Ride is a bit too heavy for my taste. With the stems option, in so styles it is possible to reduce the overhead and room mics making things a little better. If you put the stems into a DAW it is possible to filter a bit.

If you look for “Rock and Roll” in RealDrums you will be limited but there are many more options.

I also have Addictive Drums (as well as several other midi drums). Once again a heap of choice if you look and in ADdict Drums it is very easy to manipulate stuff. AD also have MIDI packs dedicated to 50s and 60s. Most other Midi Drum VSTi programs offer a lot of flexibility and good sound.
