suggestions for DFH/Metalheads for Reaper

[ottok]

A couple of questions: just purchased Metalheads and loving it! Does anyone run the Sonar and DW kits at the same
Time and blend the drum sounds, to create one massive kit? If so should i be muting certain tracks on one of the kits? Maybe reversing
The panning on the overheads on one of the two kits?
Also any suggestions or templates for using EZD in Reaper? I also have DFH
And am experimenting with using different kits at once to get a rich full sound, but i’m wondering if this will be overkill
Once it gets mixed/mastered. I’m new to Toontrack programs in that respect so any advice and tips would be very appreciated.

I think its fair to say that once you’ve actually tried the ideas above you’ve mentioned, you’ll effectively answer your own questions. That or end up coming back with more specific questions. It doesn’t necessarily matter what others do, in this digital domain the world is your oyster, setup everything how *you* want it, then compare to commercial mixes and see where (if at all) the mix falls down, then either look at EQ’s/comps etc or modify you’re approach.
