The clip sounds really dry as you can hear. I'll get later to 'multiout' and more complex ways to edit the drums, but IMO it's better to start off with the basics. The tips are all inside the user interface of SD2.0 so the chances are limited. I'll be giving you some tips to get the sounding like you want it. They are most of the times kept on 127 when dealing with Superior Drummer, though for example I keep my snare on 120-125 to remove that *clunch* from it. Now before you start thinking, 'why doesn't my Metal Foundry sounding the same', the first thing you should check out is the MIDI velocities. I made a little clip with the default setting so you have something to compare at: Clip 1.0.mp3

Anyway, It's an old one so there are some details that doesn't sound good, but still gives you a picture: Kurkkuviipale - TMB6 - SoundCloud It should give you a picture of what will it sound like in the mix. Here's a song we did with our band a while ago. It's really just a matter of patience and testing. Cymbals are Sabian HHX Stage set and as ride I use Morgan Ågren Custom Ride and AAXtreme China.Īll the drums behave differently when you apply plugins on them, but the thing to remember is that all the samples in SD2.0 are good enough to get the job done and you will surely find the best drumsound to your taste. Toms and kick are Tomas Haake Custom SQ2 toms, snare is Sonor Artist Series 6''x14''. First of all I'll be using The Metal Foundry default kit. I'll be working on this guide as objective as I can so that peoples drums don't start to sound like mine do.

In this guide I and hopefully many others will give their knowledge and experience to all less and more experienced SD2.0 users. This is an overall guide to use Superior Drummer 2.0.
