Features What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could? Ability ot adjust each and every drum sound in a mixing board interface, and the simulation of microphones sounds that can be used in the mix, i.e., room mic, overheads, and mic balance on the snare. This software, plus ProTools 9, plus an Akai LPD8, have given me access to realistic, energized, and nuanced drum parts, all in a totally editable formant. In 30 years of multi track recording, solo and with bands, I haven't had this capacity. Ever. It has transformed my studio. Ease of Use How easy is this product to use? How easy is the product to use with other products? Did it take long for you to learn to use this product? Was the manual helpful? How playable do you consider this product to be? Easy install and intuitive interface that allowed me to figure stuff out pretty quick. I haven't looked at the manual, but need to, because there are many aspects of this software that I haven't explored yet. Value Was this item an overall good value? Absolutely! I bought it at the good price of $149, and then it dropped the next week to $75 and AMS honored the new price (refunded the difference).
