You are comparing a general purpose core library (and you didn’t specify whether it was a raw kit or preset you were using) to a genre specific mix ready library with a much smaller footprint. If they are the raw kits, then you have a bunch of frequencies eating up the the mix, thus requiring some processing in order to better sit in a mix.
Despite my use of both Rock Foundry and Legacy of Rock SDXs as they are more inline with my stuff, I also use the core library for a number of drum mixes many times because I can better fit them into a mix.
That being said, if you find that other libraries are doing the trick for you, use them. That’s what they are all there for. In the end, it’s all about the music.

It can be programmed to sound natural enough using a MIDI CC curve and knowing how certain drummers manipulate their hi-hat. It’s pretty much an art form. Not to mention that in a recording and a mix, most of those infinite variations get lost.

You can try entering the drum type in the search box and have it list all products related to your search.

Thanked by: Gerald MooreI would definitely agree. Since there’s only one line of ARM products being released among some promised Intel releases, the music industry is not going to treat moving to ARM as an urgency. Give it time to let everyone get it right. In the process, it might also be better than expected, given some of the possibilities of going ARM.
One of the tell-tale signs that they will be ARM ready is when they have everything working on Big Sur.
jord
I wouldn’t count on anything ARM specific for audio production just yet. just as it takes time for them to adapt to the latest OS, it will be even more so for a new CPU. Many of the developers are already recommending not to immediately upgrade to Big Sur until they have tested their products against it. For many of the developers, once they get things working on Big Sur, it will most likely be a matter of re-compiling it for the new processors.

As stated above: you would program the articulations in the groove editor.
further instructions on how to use the groove editor can be found in the SD3 reference manual.
jord
Pedal open and close articulations are available. You would program these in the groove editor or in your DAW.

On top of this, you can also click on the drop-down arrow of a preset and select what part of a preset to load. This you can load just the kit without changing the mix routing. You can also load complete kits available in the Preset Part submenu items at the bottom of the preset drop-down.

Holding ctrl-option while clicking the pin button works here. The pin button is grey, but it will highlight when hovered over it.

Thanked by: MortalCoil and LucIs the pin button in the preview pane on? If not, then click on it to turn it on.

It is probably best if you zip up your project and post it in this thread for the devs to have a look.

If I am reading you correctly, you made changes in the second verse. If I am correct in what you were doing, then your changes in the second verse should not affect your first verse. If you have made changes in the first verse and they disappeared, then this would be a different issue.
jord
You’ll need to be more specific with your issue as well as outlining your steps.
jord
More to the point, you do not have to purchase any EZX to play any of the available groove packs. If you want additional ready mixed kits by well-known producers, that’s where you would want more EZXs.
