I totally agree with ya buddy. Sometimes you don’t want to spend too much time trying to figure out drumming when you’re not even a drummer to begin with. As simple as possible, although if you’re like me always working on new songs. It’s easy to run out of drum patterns and editing or even writing new ones is a time consuming pain in the butt 😛

I agree with you that EZ drummer gives you what you need. I don’t feel the need for an upgrade because I don’t want to waste the time figuring out all the things you can do. All the kits that I’ve used and heard just sound over polished and don’t really seem to take well to effects as a raw recorded sound does. I still don’t think there is anything better than a real drummer and a bunch of gear to get the sound you’re looking for. Ez Drummer cuts the need for all the gear it would take to do it yourself or in a studio, but I can’t say that I LOVE any of the kits. My favorite is the classic one, but it still seems like something is missing. Some of the kits just don’t sound real to me. Or maybe I’ve just heard a lot of people using the same kits and it’s easy to tell by ear when someone is using EZ Drummer.

As far as needing drums right now to finish a song Ez Drummer is the most awesome program I’ve ever used and of course sounds 100 times better than the old school drum machine would lol. I’m still left wishing I had my own kits, gear and mics for achieving beautiful drum recordings. It kind of sucks that I’m stuck having to use a drum program, but thankfully Ez Drummer is VERY passable with some tweaking and adjustments 😀
