The problem isn't just in the programming - it's also in the dynamics of

the tone, as well as the signal processing - the reverb, group dynamics,

and mic tone.

>>>Agreed.  In those cases though, I think the Drum ROM would have 
everything he needs.  The drums sounds were recorde very nicely, with
room 
sound in some cases. <<< 
 
No - it's the way the drums interact with each other that's important.

Personally, I found stylus OK, but it's not my favourite set of samples.

Also, the interface is a really poor one for dealing with drums.

>>>That was my issue with it too really.  The loops are nice and you can

tweak them slightly, but try to do anything more than that and the 
interface starts to get in the way. 
 
That's pretty much what happens - I solo the Stylus with unity volume,
and render the loops to a new track.

Atmosphere kicks ass. Much better than Stylus. It still suffers from
Rompleritis, though nowhere near as bad as the Plex. Consequently, it's
got really low cpu usage, though.
 
I keep coming back to Trilogy for two particular sub bass tones, but
overall it's not particularly exciting.
 
>Otherwise you're exporting the loops as regular audio files >and
messing with them 
>that way.  Thought the BT Twisted Textures was >(surprisingly) much
better 
too. <<<
 
Yes, that's a good cd. It's all over the place and super busy, but I
keep coming back to it. I can't stand BT's music, but his sound
design/production values kick ass.
