Roel, tell me ... are you really happy with the 2Box?

First it was the need for better hardware
then you almost daily asked for spareparts
then a 32 gb card
then the Yamaha PHX kit
now incredible high quality (SDND) sample sounds ...

My band never requested me to use anything of that all
Only a better voice ;-)

I only have things upgraded that's all, Iam a very happy 2box user Rob.
is that picture from namm 2012? looks indeed like my own kit.

puttenvr

It IS your kit.
Glad you're happy with the 2Box

groetjes
Rob

Nowhere.... exept if someone who has SD2 sell them on the black market ....

   it takes time , but if you want some , i m affraid you ll have to ger Superior drummer , or some drum library and get them converted youself with the editor ....

SD2 has no more than 12 to 17 unique layers, and the softest hits are not very soft. I'm not impressed.

Who me?  ;)
Plenty of layers to get good sounds in the module from SD2.0 .... and when you build your dsnds you have the choice in Dsoundtool to use up to 99 hits per zone ... like 99 hits on a snare head for example. If you record 99 hits in SD2.0 .... there is plenty of alternating, randomizing of hits to avoid an unnatural sounding/responding result ... and the module has a variable setting beyond that .... I don't even use the 2Box module's variable setting, I just choose fixed since I have already recorded a variable sound in SD2. And as far as soft hits .... the other thing happening is Louis' Dsoundtool works really good now ... it spreads the velocity of the hits over a wide range....

No advantage to me whether people go that route or not .... definitely nothing to gain on my end ... but, I can tell you that I didn't hear anything that tops these sounds from a stand alone module at NAMM 2012. Each time I came home ... no matter how tired I was I had to sit at my kit just to smile and gloat a bit! ;D ;) 8)

Not sure if you have checked out the video demos I've done ... and of course sounds are very subjective.... but I am pleased with results from SD2:

Lesser quality but instant viewing.

Upside down, Jman you turn me, inside out ...

True, the last part is kinda psychedelic.

Jman

I was just trying to spare you all my boring jabber ..... more talk than drum sounds on that one  ;) ;D

I'll have to do another vid one of these days, I've built a few more kits, more Vistalite kits (I just love the big Vistalite sounds), the main Music City kit, plus a couple brush kits and a rods kit...

No that's just my mind ..... Not necessary anymore for me .... my mind's still in a paper acid loop from the late 70's ;D :o
