I feel like those 2 would really round out the selection of drums I would like to have.Over the past four decades, George Massenburg has been involved in over 400 records. I'd love to try out Rooms of Hansa and Death and Darkness at some point. I just don't like the presets, and it's just. Rock Warehouse: Bought it on a whim because it was on sale and legitimately have not used it for more than 2 hours of play time. There's something about the sounds, selections, and presets that make it really work for a wide variety of songs. Rock Foundry: I think this is my most used SDX other than the core. Mainly use it if I'm playing along to Karnivool Progressive Foundry: Fun to use, interesting selection of cymbals and drums. Metal Foundry: Don't really use much, there's something about the sounds of the drums that just doesn't really sound great to me. NY Studios Vol 3: Decent enough, not a lot of presets and I'm not really familiar with mixing drums, but has some nice selections for snare and cymbals Cymbal variation is great, drums sounds thonky, fun to play around on. NY Studios Vol 1 (aka SD2): Actually really nice, probably my 4th most used.

SD3 Core: Probably most used, tons of great presets that work for a bunch of different genres.
