I am considering purchasing EXDrummer 2 and the promotion this month includes a free EZX pack. My problem is deciding on the pack 🙂
I am really interested in finding something that could mimic Nicko McBrain’s (Iron Maiden) drum set that he uses today. I am a huge maiden fan and I really love their sound.
From what I have collected, his real set is broken down as such:
Premier Series drum in Custom finish:
06” x 06” Maple Classic Tom
08” x 08” Maple Classic Tom
10” x 10” Maple Classic Tom
12” x 12” Maple Classic Tom
13” x 13” Maple Classic Tom
14” x 14” Maple Classic Tom
15” x 15” Maple Classic Tom
16” x 16” Maple Classic Tom
18” x 16” Maple Classic Floor Tom
24” x 18” Gen-X Bass Drum
Paiste Signature series cymbals:
– Nicko McBrain Signature Bell Ride cymbal
– Paiste Signature Reflector Bell Ride Cymbal 22
– 13″ heavy bell
– 16″, 17″, 19″ and 20″ power crash cymbals
