I never got the eSoundz linbs to work because according to eSoundz CS they need to get the hooks from InMusic/BFD3. I would think may never happen.
Same with any non-BFD expansions too (Chocolate Audio and one or two more IIRC).
TBH I upgraded but have not done a deep dive into the usage of this version vs the old BFD3 which I owned.
What drum VST is the absolute best? Why, it's the one that fits the piece best. Sometimes AD, sometimes SD3, sometime SSD5, sometimes EZD2/3, sometimes CW Session Drummer and sometimes BFD3 and sometimes ......
You mean like this?
It was great idea until after a few major releases it became a bit more and more incomplete because the software gained more controls that the hardware could not handle.
As of BandLab taking over and OS changes IIRC a unit like this may not even work without updated drivers (which do not exist).
Used my $75 and $25 April vouchers to get Buxom Betty, Lindel 245E and 345E and SPL MoVerb Plus for a total outlay of just a few pennies under 40 clams.
Once again, I'm pretty tapped out on 'wants' from PA with an ownership total of 85 plugins from them.
