Toontrack Nashville EZX

This, like the other Toontrack software, installs very easily with little input from you. All the sample loading is automatic so you mostly just click Next a few times. You do have to authorize it online with your serial number, so you'll want to have internet access, although there is a more time consuming alternative if you don't have internet access. I had no compatibility issues, just installed it and it integrated itself with my existing ezDrummer Original installation. No additional configuration necessary. The manual is very simple and easy to read while providing information on every function.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

I have a windows XP based Dell computer with a dual core processor that is running Nuendo with a MOTU sound card. Nashville works perfectly fine with my system. The performance is just like the other ezDrummer programs - fairly light on CPU but heavy on RAM. The Nashville EZX in particular uses a lot of ram - I believe this one is closer to ~300MB by default. This software is very stable, I can't remember it ever crashing.

OVERALL OPINION

I have had this for maybe 6 months, I got it right when it came out after eagerly awaiting it. The sounds are really great, you can definitely come close to achieving that great Nashville drum sound they have perfected in Tennessee. The snares sound especially great, they really have a good wallop. In this expansion you are also given a new mixer channel for Compressed Room sound, which is handy since it saves you the trouble of trying to set that up yourself on your DAW. It helps a lot in achieving a bigger drum sound. If I had to complain, I would say that there is kind of a long wait for the samples to load, probably 2-3 times as long as other sample plug-ins usually take to load for the same amount of data. It is worth the wait though. You also get to decide between traditional drum sticks and brushes, which is great because a lot of times the regular sticks are too hard or too much power for a particular song. The MIDI library provided is extensive and tasteful, and they really nailed the train beats that are normally very hard to recreate with drum software. This is a great value if you want good sounding, easy to create drum tracks for your country or pop productions. I love it, Toontrack does it again.

OVERALL OPINION

- Well I'll be clear right away:
If you are looking for "the" drum kit that sounds current, hyper-raliste for
any style of pop and rock show funk-rock (Hoobastank, Maroon Five for example)
it gives me the top Contents of current sampling acoustic drum and I PSE
truly my words! Far ahead of the kit of basic pop-rock (snare too fusion sounds a little plastic .. Finally, my gut ..)

Precision:
- A DESTINATION kit not that the country as one might think.

- A word of advice, do not make the mistake (I made the beginners, unfortunately ..) to underestimate costs because with a good sound card and monitors the quality is really changing world of sound No one will contradict me on that!

- For other styles, the Vintage is also a superb kit.

For now, it's 10/10 because I have not heard anything better.

- Good Zic all!

Battery samplée with MIDI groove. Trouble free installation.

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

Very good (sounds more "battery" as the basic kit)! Powerful sound with a very good projection. More dynamic than in the vintage (which did not much actually), too much on the other hand Tama cc.

In addition to the country, this kit is perfect for rock. It works very well with the above groups but also for the Jeff Buckley (make a small one last goodbye with) and styles péchus (take some tweaker ...)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week and I love it (ah ludwig this!)

I would rather pay the price of the first EZX but other than that ...

Sound library for EZdrummer, also usable with the new Superior 2.0

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

To me, this is the best extension for EZDrummer proposed to date (twisded and claustrophobic is more a gadget than anything else).
You should know that when seeking a bank's typical sound, little is expected of sounds (the battery does not contain the basic elements rather than ten miles) but very good qualities of each piece, and it is almost the case. I liked one or two snare drums and more, even to pay 15-20 euros more expensive.
The extension is perfect for pop, rock. Like previous notice not to rely at the end or side nashville country is very versatile. Besides more pop / rock that kit-based Ez

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over a year.
I like the best definition of the hi-hat, the ride on the pop rock kit, and the comp room fader in the mixer. Least as I have said is missing one or two snare drums and more.
I have all the extensions SUPERIOR EZX + 2.0 so I can compare
The value for money is excellent, must still paid more for 145 eur for use Ez
Yes I ever did without hesitation, but do not rely on the demos on the site of Toontrack: mixed with music or flattered with various treatments (fx - eq tec ...)
