Two minus issues it seems you cant' dampen the drums with SD3 with a slider like you can with BFD 3. It sounds like the drum kits are on the other side of your monitor. The sound of both drum software are excellent. The work flow of SD3 is much easer and faster. There were times I found it triggered too early or it won't trigger at times. With BFD3 you have to have a midi controller, assign the hits to different keys, hold the key down with the loop feature on, and then switch to a different keyboard key during the song for different grooves and or fills. It helps you find what your looking for faster and what will fit certain things on a song faster. BFD3 does not have this, its more like Ride beat 1, Ride beat 2, instead of Verse 1, Verse 2 option. You can adjust the length of the groove if you want to add a fill anyplace you want. Then you can copy or slide a verse 2 groove, pre chorus, multiple chorus, and ending grooves for the song.

Part of the reason is the studio room chosen for the project, and the other reason is George Massenburg in the drum room and behind the mixing console.įirst observation: I love in SD3 than you just slide a grove to the bottom of the screen. I am still learning the program, but I have to say, I don't believe you can get better sounding drums than Superior Drummer 3. I started with BFD drums, then BFD 2, and then BFD 3.
