Addictive Drums 2

[angr77]

I just wanted push for the next version of Addictive Drums, launch date is 13th of May: see details on http://www.addictivedrums2.com It is including many real nice features, better sound and better ways to shape your sound! A real hit!

Best regards Angr77

This means that by the middle of May, we will have seen revamps of BFD, EZdrummer and AD. An upgrade of Superior can't be too far off.
I look forward to seeing what in AD2. I suspect we'll see the ability to mix and match kit pieces more easily. Anyway, we've posted a few of the details released so far on digitalDrummer

Exciting times for computer-sampling!

If you signup for the AD2 newsletter you will see a screenshot of AD2. I think you are right Allan...:-) and there is more stuff in there which will make an e-drummer really happy. Exciting times!

Care to share the screenshot with us, Anders?

And, if you bought AD after March 1, 2014, you get a free upgrade to AD 2 (value: $79); if you bought it during January or February 2014 you get 50% off. Bought mine last week, so at least my timing is spot on for purchases. maybe less so for actual drumming though!

Hey, look what I've found:

Hairmetal...thats the picture! I can just say that the AD2 $79 upgrade will be worth every penny! :-) Best regards Angr77

Can't wait for AD2 myself!! I hope one of the improvements or added features is to be able to choose ANY cymbal from the cymbal slots they give you. I would love to have a kit with more than one Ride in it.

I think a guy named Trip is going to get very happy... When he is upgrading to AD2!

There is an update available for Addictive Drums 2 (V2.02 - released yesterday) Now the hi-hat graph feedback on map page are back among some other nice features! See xlnaudio.com for full story and updates.

Special call for our dear MegaDRUM users: Have you seen the bundled MegaDRUM Map Presets in AD2? Full story is coming - stay tuned! ANGR77

I know very little about Addictive Drums except what I occasionally read here.

Simple question... Does utilizing Addictive Drums require a computer by the kit whenever you play the kit?

[angr77]

The answer is yes.

Not if you have a 2Box module!!

Yes, it does. And preferably a minimum of 6 gb of RAM. Could be Mac or PC, but needs to be fairly new, say Windows 7 or 8 to get the best results. You may also need an audio interface otherwise you are utilizing the computer's on-board sound card, and stretching its capabilities may not lead to the best sound (crackles and pops on the one hand, latency on the other.)

How do you connect a laptop to the td30 so it triggers AD2?
