Generally, EV styles and SW styles do not mix too well. If you have a drum beat that is an EV style, it's best to choose instruments that are EV styles. Likewise, if you have a drum beat that's a SW style, it's best that the instruments also are SW styles.
Correct. I would go a step further and say that some SW8 and SW16 RealTracks don't always work well together, however most EV8 and EV16 will play nicely. As always, let your ears be the guide.
