#1 – A new sample set of the DW Cherry wood kit with 10, 12, 14, 16, 18″ Toms & 20, 22, & 24″ Kick. A sample set that can be used for slower material whereby the samples reproduce all the lows that Cherry wood exhibits. A good example would be Mick Fleetwood’s Cherry kit.
#2 – The Grooves page to have an added “Tag” option that allows the user to right click on the groove and Tag it into your own (pre-determined) folder. This would allow you to get access to your own personal favorite grooves. A further addition to this would be to have a “Memo” option where the user could classify the groove by “Song Style”, “Song Name”, & “As by Band Name” as a point of reference. Here’s an example; the groove would be similar to Song Style = “Ballad”, Song Name = “Lying Eyes”, & “As by Band Name” = “Eagles”. This would go a long way into getting at a groove that you might want repeatedly.
#3 – Better Hi Hat articulation samples! Better Hi Hat performance control. More options regarding importing your own samples & having the ability to use all the functionality that Toontrack uses on their own Hi Hat sample sets. Currently there is no way to mute the previous note such as an open Hi Hat followed by a closed Hi Hat so the added samples cannot be used to replace or enhance the current SD3 Hi Hat samples.
#4 – The ability to restructure the Mixer so the user can drag the channels to a different location. As an example the output section has the Kick, Snare, Toms, Hi Hats, & OH & having the ability to drag the channel faders to your own liking is not possible. If it is possible I haven’t been able to do this.
