Published on 03/20/13 at 05:14I bought it directly on the site of the state drummagog United States (Chicago) and paid in dollars.
I initially bought the basic version, but I quickly opted for the pro version.
After purchase, I downloaded from the site.
The installation was very simple, working under macpro it is almost done alone, integration into Cubase was super intuitive.
Departing not easy to understand (a problem user manual in English) how to use and especially how easily installed on a slice of mix, but in testing, ultimately there is no magic.
No incompatibility issue that has become a huge workmate for recycling afternoon of processing drums recorded analogically.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
I work in a big config, mac pro 12 core (2.66 Ghz) 24 Giga of ram, 4 Tera hard drive, graphics card 2 1 Giga each DSP card and universal Quad Omni 6.0 audio so I don ' have no idea how it works in smaller config, but with me there is no problem, it runs like clockwork and is a perfect stability, integration into Cubase is of the same order.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for over 2 years and I do not count the number of times it has saved mix battery were wrong board (problem of sound quality battery, such as a snare drum that sounds like a pot, kick that did not sound workable or rotten tom ..)
I also work with BFD 2 (sampler's battery, pearl, DW, Sound ... ect ....)
So I do not use it for programming drum beat, but to convert eg a snare signals noon and where there is great is that it takes into account the velocity of the impactor and the volume after adjustment by the user of the conversion sensitivity.
The conversion is done via the settings very intuitive that captures your drummer play with great precision and especially keeping the human side.
The basic version only allows 5 drummagog replaced eg snare live mix, installation on the edge of the snare track and sending the recorded signal in the midi sampler drummagog 5.
It was not practical because I did not take the power of BFD 2 and more live conversion was necessarily intensive computational resource (although I have not really felt or measured on the basis of the power of my config)
The basic version are Features are only snare sound, no need to explain that it is zero.
But the pro version 5 Drummagog allows installation on the track after example of the snare analogically recorded (sorry but I will always take this example) to write a midi track of it and then assign it to the any sampler midi (BFD 2) and allow the advantage of great snare sounds very natural twelve o'clock.
This strengthens the drum mix, make very large dynamic on the kick and snare, tom have much impact with, or even replace the complete unit in the mix of the battery, just awesome everything becomes flexible.
Attention despite everything, because during the conversion live, write latency is clearly visible which requires resychroniser the MIDI track with audio, in this case it is necessary to move the midi track to deliver in line with the mix.
It is also verified that the conversion did not take Tom neck for example (which is very strong in making its micro snare) transcribed in neck snare drum Drummagog 5, in this case, it simply clears necks in the midi track too.
The value for money seems to me honest, I must say that the price I do not care a bit of time (and this is the case) the app works perfectly and it does the job for which I bought no problem.
For me, I have adopted and question me in the past.
Drummagog also proposes Kits Battery sampling high mark in the higher versions, but beware price level that badly off, but considering the quality of the software, but I think I have not tested the quality should be excellent.
According friends with what I have discussed this app and also working in the studio with larger versions of the mine Drummagog 5 is a tool after them very reliable and professional but I've never been able to test myself quietly.
