Not having Bandmate in Superior is really dumb. I’m currently giving EZ Drummer 3 a trial run because I am specifically drawn to the Bandmate feature. It isn’t just useful as a “quick” way to get a beat for your song (whether for a “beginner” or more “advanced” user, or whatever that explanation above was about regarding different target audiences). It’s also about generating ideas. Sometimes you just want to throw your audio in and see what it comes up with. I like what I’m seeing in EZ Drummer 3, but from what I’ve seen/heard/researched of Superior, I’d rather buy Superior, for it’s flexibility, sounds, etc. And I’m one of those buyers that would rather get the higher end product first time around. (And yes, it’s obviously “higher end” if it’s $399 v $179 (again, –whatever that explainer was about from the moderator above…). BUT because EZD3 has bandmate, I’m going to get EZD3 instead of Superior. So Toontrack just lost a higher end sale for the simple stupid reason that Superior doesn’t have Bandmate. I wonder how many other sales they have lost because of that? So, they are either really dumb or they know this, and as some have suggested, they are playing a game, expecting buyers to buy in at $179 and then pay another $319 to crossgrade/upgarde when Superior gets Bandmate (if ever…). Either way, they are either being dumb or greedy. Not a good look.
