Good luck!No i mean they have small club jazz kits and funk kits which are recorded in very large rooms.i find that stylistically odd.i know they was founded on drums but that doesn't make them the authority on recording them.like i said, i've been through quite a few SDX's and the SD3 stock library and their sound seems to steer towards being quite diffused(apart from that one SDX i mentioned Progressive Foundry)to me their close miked samples do not sound at all like close miked samples.they are too diffused and have far too many early reflections in them and thus do not serve the role i'd expect a close mic to serve. Stylistically odd do you mean the midi recordings? If you are looking for just a specific or few sound to achieve a sonic objective, your world is wide open. In the past 10 years they have expanded to other stuff, but their core has always been drums. You grow your drums over time, and if you are savvy, you buy around BF. Toontrack was founded on drums.nothing else. If you want a tool that is the most powerful/flexible and most expensive especially if you start collecting EZX and SDX expansions, I know nothing better than SD3. I think Chris Whitten who participates here and iirc recorded some of the C&V plus Funk, might find that interesting. Not heard that one but i'll check it out thanks.otherwise SD3 is seeming like a stupid investment for me cause whilst i do really like the articulations and the mic options,the close mikes suck for what i like even on things like the jazz and funk kits,which i find a bit stylistically oddIf you are looking for just a specific or few sound to achieve a sonic objective, your world is wide open.
