If you need something more, if you like to tweaks your kit, and you can spend something more, Addictive Drums is the way. I few words, if you need just a plugin to program quick drums loop, with an affordable price, you should go with EZDrummer, basic kit, it won’t let you down. In my opinion, its sample are really better than the ones in METAL ADpak for Addictive Drums, even if it’s more customizable, but quite too much for me. If we talk about Hevy metal songwriting, something changes: the Metal Machine EZX pack for EZDrummer has some KILLER samples (it was created by Andy Sneap!). Equally simple (if you use the basic kit with no tweaks) is Addictive Drums, but it’s for sure more complete, to be honset, I think that it can’t be compared to EZDrummer, it’s more like Superior (which I don’t use), moreover it has better drumkit samples. I found that EZDrummer is the simpliest one, easy to use during songwriting, quick and simple. I don’t know very much Steven Slate Drums, I’ve never used it so I can’t give you my opinion, anyway I listened to its sample and I think it’s really interesting. There are three companies that shine fot that kind of plugins: Toontrack (with EZDrummer and Superior), XLN Audio (with Addicitive Drums) and Steven Slate Drums. That’s why Drums VSTis exist, and in this case, it’s worth to have one. But it’s true that not everybody can afford it. The rule is: if you can record a REAL drumkit, played with the right emphasys by a good drummer, there’s nothing better, no VSTi in the world could be better than this. You don’t have to find a drummer, give him the songs to prepare, rent a studio, record everything with the right mic in the right place and then clean the tracks before mixing. EZDrummer by ToontrackBy now is real: writing songs with a good drums track is easier than some times ago.
