Toontrack Superior Drummer Software (Mac and Windows) Reviews

5 People rated this product :
           7 out of 10
           5 out of 10
"If you can get it to work.....it's great."
Feature:
Great features, it's just you cant use them without crashing your system. Going to get some extra RAM for my Mac to see if that works tomorrow.

Quality:
No problems with how it looks, it's a plugin.

Value:
Yes, if it works properly on your system.

Desirability:
It;s ok.

Sound:
As the others say, nothing but problems on my macbook pro. It freezes every 2 minutes and has to be reloaded. Using it with Pro-Tools LE. Great sounds and a great piece of kit, if only it would work for longer than two minutes before crashing, it would be great. Please sort it out Toontracks i cant get a thing done.

Ease of Use:
Pro_Tools users beware, i found it really complicated to set SD up with EZDrummer, easy when you know how but not well explained on the set up in the PDF manual. I had to get help.

Support:
Awful to try and reach support.

Overall:
I'll persevere for a while with it, then probably get a plug in that works.

"Just does not work. At least on Sonar, your results may vary."
Feature:
Good features too, when they work.

Quality:
It sputters, it freezes, it crashes.

Sound:
Great sound... if only it ever worked.

Ease of Use:
Can't use the product, if any project that is even slightly complicated crashes when you load it.
