what drum sampler vsts are you guys using

i'm slowly moving away from fl studio to sonar, what's a good vst for drum sampling (then midi programming)? i've used battery but i don't like the interface, it feels slow and overcomplex

i just want something i can drop samples into, no processing or anything. that's why i liked fl's step sequencer

thanks in advance

reason!

i'll give you a copy if you want

OH MAN REASON VST I'M BEHIND THE TIMES

sorry man i'm just a bit sarcastic at the moment, i appreciate the suggestion anyway

will check out the freeware vsts on kvr!

I use Impulse that comes with ableton... but that's probably no good to you :grin:

For rex files though I swear by microdicer and will recommend it to anyone: http://www.concretefx.com/MicroDicer.htm

Nice, simple rx2 player, does exactly what it says on the tin, no hassle. And it's only £21

for payware i use the sampler in energyXT ($50) (you could use the vst version) or drumular vsti ($40). both offer a hell of a lot more in addition though.

i just use floops

i bang on pots and pans and then sample them through my microwave.

I sequence drums with a TI-85, bitch

i had the idea to make a drum machine on my ti-83 but then i realised it doesn't have a speaker so instead i made a quadratic formula solver

edit: also i think it's worth mentioning that each time i think texas instruments my mind replaces it with native instruments

fxpansion dr-008 for sampling

it already has one built-in ;))

QuadReg, fifth option in the STAT-CALC menu; no need for custom programs..

damn it i spent a good half hour on that solver

at least it gave me some programming practice

(i'm still going through these suggestions, trying different things out - using machine II at the moment, a bit pissed off that it only uses 16bit mono samples though)
