Drum plugin (ideally VST) any suggestions?
Hey,
Im looking to buy a drum plugin (ideal VST as I use cubase). I currently use EZDrummer but ive been told several times that the drum sounds are letting me down.
I really want whatever I buy to last me a while so I'm willing to spend quite a bit, id rather spend a bit on a good package to last me a while.

Samson Drum Mics
Anyone know anything about them? I was looking into the Samson 8kit because it seems to have pretty good reviews but I'm not sure. Any suggestions for pieces of the set I should replace and maybe with what?

Drum editing?
Just out of curiosity how long would you say it should take to edit drum tracks? Basically i have spent probably somewhere between six and eight hours editing every drum hit for one 3 and a half minute song. I did not really mess with quantizing the hits because my drummer plays with a click live. So he is well rehearsed and overall the drums maintain a consistent feel.
